Couldn't find any other thread. Anyone ar watching the USPGA? It's set up for a great final round. Very challenging course with a killer trio of closing holes known as the Green Mile. Watched the third round and it is finely poised at the top.
Anyone following this. Second day today. Spieth is leading but quite a few big names are there or thereabouts. Tiger is in with a shot but will struggle with his current wayward driving. Should be good.
I generally tune in for the final two days, sometimes I will skip Day 3, but I never miss Day 4 as it's generally one of the more exciting days of sport in the calendar year. Same with The Open.

Tiger is a scummy man but despite all of that I’d love to see him back at the top. Pretty much the entire reason I like golf.
Astonishing banana shot from leishman at the 15th.
Great set up for the final two days. Lot of big names in the top 20. I thought Tiger played well yesterday but missed some makeable putts. Reed looks like the man to beat but the weather is going to play a big part today. Should be awesome.
I really hope someone comes through the pack early on wth a good score that forces Reed and McIlroy to be aggressive from the off. I've got bets on Fleetwood, Rahm, Speith and Thomas.

I'm almost nervous for them as the US PGA can be such banana splits wth the course set up that someone is bound to capitulate. I like to see players win or lose by the decisions they make rather than being punished for good shots.
I really hope one of the Europeans wins it to get some momentum going fur the Ryder Cup, it wood be especially great if it ends up in match play type atmosphere with Rory and Reed.
Quite like Reed so wouldn't be gutted if he won. The rain may slow up the greens a touch but the final day pin positions are usually very tricky.
Amen Corner and 17, 18 will be huge tests of nerve. With the birdie opportunities afforded by 13,14 and 15 - it should be fascinating. If Rory can get a couple of birdies in the opening 6 holes - he can put some real pressure on Reed.
I stuck a fiver on Spieth when he got to nine under. He’s looking like posting a daunting total with Reed looking nervous. McIlroy is having one of those rounds where he just can’t get going.
Time must have froze for Rory when it bounced that last time.
