US Open - Mcilroy choke??
« on: June 18, 2011, 05:51:17 PM »
That is a pretty big lead after 3 days... How many was he up by going into the 4th round though at the Masters and choked?

I agree with all that, but it was no where near as exciting to watch as the Masters a couple months ago, as a viewer I'd rather have the last couple holes determine the winner and mean something.
 
So do you guys think it would have been any different if Tiger played, or is he just done...

In the short term, he is just done.  I hope he can rebound and get a fire burning again.

I voted no, but in all fairness, I just voted a minute ago. Not real exciting, I agree, but an amazing round by the top two. Eight under would have won the thing any year except two. This year, and Tiger's 12 under. Poor Day...

Now I guess they will have to McIlroy proof all the courses, right?

What was the golfer's name in the movie, "Tin Cup"...oh yeah, McElroy....ironic?

I just wanna say this...  His swing is B.E.A.U-tiful in slow motion, reversed slow motion, even in real time, he has a magnificent swing.
