  No I do but almost always they're finishing up in 3.5-3.75 hours or on 18 at least. Lol teed off at 2:50 and finished at 7:15. I mean I'm a high 70s-low 80s golfer and with another person can easily walk 18 in 3-3.5 hours. I know it's a tourney but a two some shouldn't take 4.5

  Oh here we go again.
  
  Please tell us how your round at a municipal course is the same as playing the 3rd round of the Masters. Please.
  
  You are a bumbling idiot. Stop comparing yourself to the PGA Tour.

  15 minutes a hole, comes out to 4.5 hours. That seems right in line with what it should be. I think Spieth plays slow, but not to the detriment of the broadcast like some others.

  I'm rooting on Bernhard Langer to play well. He was the winner of the first masters that I remember watching in 1985.
  
  It would be beyond insane if he won.

  Same here, as far as playing well. I think he will run out of steam around 14 or 15 though.
  
  I expect Spieth to shoot around 69 and win by 2.
  
  Winds are supposed to be very manageable come this afternoon, low teens, I expect some decent scores.

  Na is -4 through 9 without a dropped shot. A few other guys are under par as well.

  Uh no. They're not. The PGA tour is and always will be slow. It's only been like this for about 100 years now.

  And it's only going to get slower, IMO. Doesn't matter what rules they introduce, until it's a stroke every time they go over what ever the time is for a shot, nothing will change.
  
  Don't "put them on the clock". Penalize a stroke immediately and every time after and then guys will play a little faster. But I don't ever see that happening.

  I don't see it either. It's just kind of an accepted norm. The tour must not be too worried about it.

  Agreed. I think the things that they have done is basically just to quiet the public/media down about it. Seems to have worked for the most part.

  Rory drives the 350 yard 3rd, 16 feet for eagle. Of course, he misses it lol.

  I don't mind the coverage but dumb to show 3 other shots before getting to it
• SportsAndLady

  

  That Davis Love shot was awesome...the other golfer with him looked more excited than Love lol

  Well they can't show it live unless they had a crystal ball.
  
  But yes, they should have showed it immediately and then replayed the 3-4 shots they did show.

  Smylie can't make a putt to save his life. Really could have used that 2 shot swing

  Hopefully things pick up on the back. This tournament has been terrible so far, everyone is just shitting the bed
