Phil is adored because he blew all those putts back in whatever year...handled it with humility and grace and became very human and relatable to others. A perfect example of how, if handled properly, some of one's greatest failures can become a blessing.
Jordan is tied for the lead at -7 after his first round at the Charles Schwab Challenge--but some players are still on the course.
I'm always surprised when I "log on" to my favorite college sport/University forum, known mostly for football, and see a thread about pro golf and an alum's efforts on the tour leading the most active charge. That's all. Oh, and if he doesn't win something soon somebody needs to change the title to "Jordan Spieth"
Nice round today, but still in doubt - the one-stroke lead can disappear quickly. Need a solid round on Sunday to win it.
Spieth in the water at 18. I don't recall ever seeing someone in the mix at the end hit it in the water on 18 there.
Congratulations to Kokrak! Nice guy. Took this pic 2 years ago at Medinah with my daughter and her cousin.
Some of my more memorable moments as a teenager happened "knee deep in the weeds on the Trinity". Good time to bring out the 6 iron...
Three rounds in the 60s and then a 73 on Sunday. He got a lucky break on 17 when his tee shot hit a tree and bounced back towards the fairway, but he couldn't take advantage of the break. On 18, he rolled the dice. he knew he had to birdie. I don't blame him too much for that one. He's back in the hunt almost every week and the third leading money winner on tour this year with almost $5 million.
