A tad lucky there spiffy boy.
|
|
By:
the luck has been with him all round
|

By:
Spieth barely sunk a putt all day, could have been 15/16 under if the putter was going today. Bit of a stand off with Kaymer and Spieth. The winner will come from this group and whoever gets the next bogey loses - either today or tomorrow.
|

By:
So if one of them bogeys the first of 18 hole tomorrow it's all over??? You must have never watched a Sunday 4th round before......it doesn't tend to be that simple!
|
|
By:
Just my opinion. Looks like they've started to treat this as matchplay and a bogey will be a big mental upset.
Looking forward to it tomorrow. |
|
By:
I predict a bogey from both leaders.
|
|
By:
Bogey from Spieth.... (incoming)
|
|
By:
Nice putt from Spiffy
|
|
By:
Well played, Jordan.
|
|
By:
54 holes without a bogey - impressive
|
|
By:
They we are, Jordan wins it then
 |
|
By:
poor play from kaymer,wrong club from tee,bad approach,seems to be feeling the pressure imo
spieth been very lucky esp on back 9 imo |
|
By:
Winning score - 14 under.
|
|
By:
spieth is blessed with luck...will not hold up tomorrow
|
|
By:
At least, or i hope, tomorrow will be a cracking round.
|
|
By:
hope your right,the -9 unders are still in this also
|
|
By:
Think that's a bit unfair on him. No-one is blessed with luck. Luck hasn't got him however many top 10's on his rookie year, plus a PGA tour win and a second at Augusta. I'm not a fanboy but he's the real deal.
|
|
By:
-8 and -9 are still in it........some cracking early birdies form any of them would upset the market, also put pressure on the leaders.
|
|
By:
Sorry, not all in the same year obviously, but it seems like he's only been around 5 minutes and is making a huge stance in the golfing world. We'll see how long it lasts though...

Exactly my sentiment. |
|
By:
Yeah absolutely. He seems to have a temperment most seasoned pros would pay good money for though. I know I'd like to be that calm on my local course. All the best with whoever you've backed.

How did Sergio look?
|
|
By:
Third week in a row I have a guy In place Sunday. Hope Kaymer gets it done tomorrow
|
|
By:
Sergio played well missed a tiddler on 17 which spoiled his round
|
|
By:
Cheers Mighty
|

By:
Minded to lay a bit of Speith and Kaymer at about 4/7 coupled, a bit out of Senden. And put some on to Garcia, even though I've missed the price and a bit onto Woodland.
|

Clubhouse eagle for Justin, don't see many of those.
|
|
By:
Indeed v odd all round
 |
|
By:
It's probably the right outcome but it's a huge can of worms. Imagine if he goes on to win...
|
|
By:
How can they say the movement of the ball wasn't visible to the naked eye when he clearly saw it and stopped ?
|
|
By:
Yeah, that's the big question. I'm not sure about this at all. Plus he now gets an earlier tee time than he should have at -7, which could actually be an advantage gained from the situation.
|
|
By:
Why is Rose teeing off now when he has -7? Am i missing something?
|
|
By:
Oh 2 shot penalty rescinded....nice one.
|
|
By:
So to sum up this shambles
- Rose sees the ball move as he addresses it. In order for him not to have called a penalty on himself and replaced it he must have decided that it was in it's original position (moved back) when he took the club away? I'd say if there's a doubt you should call the penalty but.... - after the round officials say the ball moved position, he didn't replace it - 2 shot pen - 18 hours later they take away the 2 shot pen. So they must be saying the ball didn't move from it's original position at all (no pen). It doesn't look like that from the pictures but ... - they cite this new rule which is about the ball moving when the player couldn't reasonably have seen it move. So it did move? - then they tee him off out of position |
|
By:
Basically you'd summed it up bally.
The new rule, as i thought, applies when a player didn't know of any rule infringement but was later pointed out by fans watching it on TV and being a grass. |
|
By:
Ewan just quoted this rule...
18-4. By Fellow-Competitor, Caddie or Equipment in Stroke Play If a fellow-competitor, his caddie or his equipment moves the player’s ball, touches it or causes it to move, there is no penalty. If the ball is moved, it must be replaced. |
|
By:
Yes, I think the HD rule is misapplied. The rule is so that a player who has no way of detecting an infringement cannot be penalised for not spotting it. This isn't the situation here: Rose clearly had some doubt that the ball had moved, so he obviously detected it. It was then checked, was confirmed it did move, and he signed for a 73. It's harsh but I don't see how the HD rule gets him out of it.
