Is Spieth ever going to put it together again? Man, he’s frustrating to watch. Tons of talent and great intermediate shots, mixed between meltdowns on the tee and poor putting. Blew another 54-hole lead today.

Yes, he will win again. It HAS been a rough four years but he now has consecutive top 5 finishes. He’s getting some Phil’itis where he is having issues with the driver. Get that fixed he should be good.

The world of professional golf can be a particularly brutal one, with Monday qualifiers, big cuts in the field and endless traveling, but Kevin Hall, who has been chasing his dream of being a professional golfer for 16 years now, is no stranger to adversity.
“It can get really lonely,” Hall said. “There’s not much interaction with the deaf community, although I do get to meet new people almost everywhere I go. This is what I chose to do and I love it, though.”
Hall lost his hearing at 2 years old after recovering from meningitis. Seven years later, at 9, Hall picked up a golf club.
“When you put a golf club in his hand, there was just no stopping him,” Jackie Hall, Kevin’s mother, said.
While learning how to play, Kevin Hall said being deaf required him to navigate language barriers with his instructors, who didn’t speak American Sign Language.
Despite the added hurdle to training, Hall said the help of technology and his parents have allowed him to grow his game.
“My parents help with the communication and I can lip read,” Hall said. “There are a lot of videos and it helps when I have my phone, I can type out my responses and there are texts/emails. There’s always a way to communicate.”
Hall, now a 2005 Ohio State graduate and current professional golfer, played in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am off of a sponsor exemption from Feb. 8-14 in Carmel, California.

Ryder Cup 2021: A complete breakdown of every U.S. player's strength and weakness

2021 Ryder Cup teams: How the United States and European squads stack up at Whistling Straits
The teams are set for the 43rd Ryder Cup, and once again, the United States has a massive advantage going into what should be a fascinating week of golf at Whistling Straits. Captain Steve Stricker has put together arguably the most talented group of players ever assembled at a Ryder Cup, but Europe has made this the most popular team event in the world by disassembling previous U.S. teams that fit that bill. They will again try to do that with world No. 1 Jon Rahm and four-time major winner Rory McIlroy leading the way.
This is a Ryder Cup of contrast. Europe is stocked with veterans who have been in some wars. The U.S. is half rookies and mostly full of players in their 20s. It's a fascinating showdown in which both sides have fully leaned into their identities. The U.S. are a big-hitting group of young studs, while the Euros are a cagey squad rife with a handful of individuals who have as much experience as the entire U.S. team combined.
Though the event is played out with teams, it mostly comes down to individuals hitting golf shots (either together or on their own). We need to look at how every player on each roster has been playing and is projected to fit at Whistling Straits this week. First up is a U.S. side full of rookies, ranked by Official World Golf Ranking.

The other angle on that Spieth shots shows just how ridiculous it was. Of course, his partner promptly blew the putt.

Turns out those weren't great seats
Those who spent up to $15,000 (before tax) for the hospitality packages in the Straits Club that looks over the 18th hole would have had to content themselves with just the all-inclusive food and booze after not a single match made it to the final hole on Friday morning.
That's a lot of money to watch it on TV.
