Or they could have just use their conduct unbecoming a professional rule and DQ'd him.

Wow the backwards roll on that Rose putt. The course may not be playable by the end of this round.

It clearly isn't.

The recession apparently convinced Walters to forgo the risks of gambling and look for a sure thing: insider trading. And he had just the man to help him.

Mickelson sold his shares for more than $931,000 in profits. At the same time, he repaid his gambling debt to Walters in September 2012.

Yeah I'm gonna say Phil doesn't give one single **** about whether angleshooting the rules is morally right

everything outside the ropes wasn't considered a hazard tho.

But they didn't do that to Jon Daly when he did it. Phil took a 10 on the hole, is an embarrassment already and his dumb explanation made him even more of an embarrassment. Isn't that enough punishment?

Geez DJ is imploding

Phil is just an epic douche, no way around it. I've defended him for years but he is one of the most arrogant, fake people ever.

I know it's fashionable to call Rose a cuck and stuff but he seems like gets damn near the most possible out of his talent/game. This is a guy who could barely make a cut for years early in his career. Compare that to DJ who has all the talent in the world and inexplicably blows major after major. Imagine what DJ would have shot hitting 1 GIR on the front nine today 48?

Bad wording on my part. I mean all sand traps outside the ropes should have been ruled not hazards. Not retroactively of course, just when they put the rule in place.

Either way I made a terrible joke about DJ hitting off the maintenance path on 2. Let’s talk more about how fk’d these greens are

**** off, Zach.

The only bigger bunch of crybaby douches is Trump voters.

Pro golfers playing a hard course. The horror.

Zach is about as classy as they come so for him to say something is pretty big. You can tell it's getting baked out really good at the moment. Wind is kiiiicking.
