A guy took an 11 on the incredibly tough 18th hole and Stenson had a shankapotomus.

I'm the last guy who should be commenting on any pro's play, but how does a professional ever take an 11 on a hole? I'm terrible and might take a 10 once per round, but someone playing everyday of his life should not be doing this.

Kevin Na got a 16 on a hole a few years back.

How does that happen? I could probably only play my putter and take a 16 somewhere.

The golf course I used to work at hosted a conference tournament a few years after I was out of high school, so when one of the kids came in and his card included an 18 on one of the holes, well, a couple of the kids working at the course did exactly what I would have done...

They got in a cart, drove out to the hole, and saw homw many throws it would take for them to get the ball in the hole...needless to say, they each eat the 18...

...of course, I have no room to talk...I carded a 24 on a hole once in a practice round...and a 9 at districts...

Trump's guys have done an amazing reconstruction of the Doral course. Was it really out of play for only one year? The amount of excavation is staggering.

Eldrick has two birdies in his first three holes, and trails by only four shots.

Being so close to the lead I doubt he will withdraw today.

Why was it different when Rory did it?

It wasn't. You are the only one on here that says it was.

Its incredibly difficult to do anything when you have a bad tooth. I've had two of them, and its THE worst pain I've ever had to deal with. Also, withdrawing after 7 holes on Friday as Rory did in 2013 is a little different than withdrawing on hole #64 in the middle of a +5 round.

Yup. I think its a bit different to withdraw before your round starts or after a few holes on Friday than it is to walk off the course on the 68th hole of the tournament. That is just my opinion, nothing more.

If you like watching professional golfers struggle this is the tournament for you. The leaders are -3. It's windy as hell and there are bogeys and doubles all over the course. A guy took an 11 on the incredibly tough 18th hole and Stenson had a shankapotomus. I have Keegan who is currently +2 with a lot of golf left to play.

They have to deal with speedy greens, like we have not seen. Kevin Na got a 16 on a hole a few years back.

I was wrong. He took the 11 on #10. He hit 3 balls in the water.

It happens when a guy hits a bad shot and then thinks he can make up for that bad one by hitting his next one perfectly instead of playing it safe and usually snowballs from there. These guys can definitely get into that "Tin Cup" mentality at times. It is the caddy's job to pull them off the ledge before they do something incredibly stupid like card something in the double digits.

I took an 11 on a 320 yd par 4 last summer at the county open. Was playing really well and hit the ball great on the front nine. Thought I could drive the green or right in front of it . Very tight hole with OB to the left. Hooked two out of bounds before pulling out an 8 iron and put it in the left part of the fairway. So hitting six from that location I hit a tree with a wedge and it flew out of bounds. Dropped again and hit 8 in front of the green, being sure to stay under the tree this time. Chipped up and 2 putted. Went from +2 for the round to +9 in about 15 minutes. Oh, and Hawg and Spanky saw me make a mess of a short hole last summer doing something similar. Trying to make a stupid shot happen instead of chipping out and taking my medicine.

25 balls have gone in the water on #8. No one is going to want to come back here next year.

Followed by a 3-putt bogey. This course is playing like the US Open. I wouldn't be surprised if the winning score was over par.

Yup. I think its a bit different to withdraw before your round starts or after a few holes on Friday than it is to walk off the course on the 68th hole of the tournament. That is just my opinion, nothing more. The banks around the water were insane. Fun tournament to watch though.
