flaz Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) Congratulations to Phil for another victory in the PGA Championship. Now, the question turns to, can he finally win the US Open? In his 29 starts, Phil has 10 top 10 finishes, 6 of which were in second place. Fairways and greens are are the name of the game on an Open course (last year being the exception to that rule). The rough is typically the longest the players will face all year. Lefty only hit 6 or 7 fairways in the final round at the PGA. He'll have to do better to have any chance to win.

flaz Posted May 23, 2021 Author Share Posted May 23, 2021 Rosie just birdied the first three holes. Could be some really low rounds if the wind stays down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T&C Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Hope so, he's my favorite current golfer. Saw something earlier that said he would be the oldest to win a major if he pulls it off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil is my all time favorite, plus he's said some pretty nice things about the Bills over the years. He's a big time gambler and made some serious change on our team Edited May 23, 2021 by flaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a color 8 by 10 of him with with him paired up with Fulton Allen on the tee box (he is mid swing, its a nice shot/pic) at the Fred Meyer challenge... has to be like 30 years ago or so, Phil looks like he skipped school to go play golf. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoBills808 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Koepka is favorite to win rn and he is just a monster in majors Problem w Phil is he could shoot 80 today although it's set up to score Head says Brooks heart says Phil should be a great Sunday regardless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 You guys see the Mets game yesterday? Rojas is going to kill the bullpen. Not sure if you caught yesterday's game, but Lucchesi pitched 4 innings, threw 43 pitches, gave up 1 hit, no runs and struck out 8. And ***** Rojas pulled him from the game. This guy is a worse manager than Callaway. Sweet Jesus, he sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
