After watching round three of the PGA Championship and looking at the top seeds left, all I could think was whoever bleeds the least would win. Winning golf tournaments is hard enough, let alone winning a major. You only have four chances per year; plus, you must be playing reasonably well when they come around to have a shot. With the final four guys having no wins, I honestly thought the winner would come from elsewhere. Yeah, I know; easy to say after the fact, but I've watched enough golf in my lifetime to see the train was probably going to be coming off the track for these four guys during Sunday's round. What did surprise me was how close Mito came to pulling it off.

Looking at the final two groups, I thought Zalatoris might be the best bet…till I watched his putting stroke on Sunday. I now understand why he has it cradled against his left forearm. The 'stutter' stroke on short putts left me wanting to turn away when he pulled the putter back. It took me back to the time of Billy Mayfair and his looped putter stroke…yeah that bad. If Zalatoris wants to win a major, he must fix that leak; otherwise, winning a major will be next to impossible. He made a get putt to force OT, but it shouldn't have gotten to that point. Had he hit his driver better and dropped a couple more putts, JT would have finished 2nd.

When looking back in the pack, I thought the best bet was Rory and the way he took off on the front; I thought if he could get it to six or seven under total, he might have a chance, as I did not believe the guys in the final two groups had it in them to finish. Rory's downfall again as a putter would not cooperate with him on the back. The bulky putter and a few loose approach shots on the back did him in.

Pereira almost proved me wrong; however, after his two brilliants up and downs on 9 and 10, I thought this guy had a chance to close it out. But unfortunately, the pressure got to him at 18. School of hard knocks, file it away for another time.

I feel bad for Mito…but I also respect how JT stepped up under the pressure and made the shots required to win. JT was not even on the radar till the back nine and only when the oil started gushing out of the final two groups. But the difference with JT is that he hit shots at the critical times when needed and made the putts he had to. Here's a pic of Fiancée Jillian Wisniewski and JT celebrating the victory!

Hey Fellow golfers!
Michael Johnson, a contributing author to Golf Digest, recently published 13 of the dumbest things in golf. This is the second of three posts, listing these things……hope you enjoy!

The guy/gal who makes the hole-in-one buys the drinks.

Golf has a few things backwards, but this might be the most egregious. People who did absolutely nothing other than being on the premises are getting a complimentary cocktail while the guy or gal who slam-dunked it in the hole gets a whopper of a bar bill? We understand the tradition, and we’re just saying it’s a bit messed up. Personally, mine was fairly cheap...about $150.00, I've had friends who have much bigger tabs.....

Being late for your tee time.

Sure, who doesn’t enjoy a leisurely cup of coffee while taking a few minutes to surf the web or catch up on emails before heading to the course. And that’s just fine—except don’t do it at the expense of being late for your tee time. Be cognizant of the fact that it doesn’t just affect you (although coming into the club’s driveway on two wheels with your hair on fire is probably not great for your game); it’s also annoying to your playing partners who are stalling on the first tee wondering if you’re sick or simply a tool that lost track of time. Note: We will grant an exception for being late to women’s or men’s night play. We know getting out of work can be a tricky proposition.

Trying to qualify for the U.S. Open when you’re a vanity scratch.

It happens every year. A few golfers fudge their handicaps to get to the 1.4 index limit so they can boast to their buddies, “Hey, not sure if I told you, but I’m qualifying for the U.S. Open next week.” No, no, you’re not. The only way you’re getting to Brookline is to buy a ticket.
What you’re doing is this: You’re wasting the $200 entry fee; you’re going to (rightfully) be looked at with scorn by those who rightfully belong there, and you’re probably going to shoot a score so embarrassingly high that you no card, which is yet another classless move. Yes, the U.S. Open is “open.” Just leave it for those who have the game to give it a crack.

The term “Mashed Potatoes” and other things yelled at tour players.

We applaud fan engagement and a new approach to fandom at PGA Tour events, but to the idiot who first screamed “Mashed Potatoes” as Tiger Woods unleashed a drive at the 2010 PGA, we’ve been shaking our heads ever since. For some reason, eight years later, people still think it’s humorous. It’s not. It’s annoying. Time for some new material. Like silence.

Hey Gang

Hope all is well and gearing up for Halloween. It's been a while since I have posted and I thought it might be time for a couple of laughs with the season wrapping up or having finished for some folks already.
