Jim Furyk Shoots 59


Anybodyhome

Recommended Posts

Shot a -12 (59) to share the lead at -11. He had an uneventful +1 (72) in his first round yesterday. Golf Channel finally caught on when he was -6 thru his first 6 holes...

 

Golf Channel BMW Championship outside Chicago.

 

Fired a 28 front nine and 31 back. Stuck his approach on 18 to 3'9" for an easy birdie and a history-sharing 59. The 6th tour player to ever card a 59 in a tourney.

And Tiger just got a 2-stroke penalty for his score on #1, which was already a double bogey 6. Now it's an 8 on #1 and his 2nd round score is a 72.

 

Seems when he hit his approach over the green into the trees on #1, he went in and while he was moving twigs around the ball, the ball moved and he didn't replace it. There was video of the ball moving and Slugger White, the PGA Tour Rules Czar gave him the news in the scoring trailer after his round. Reporters say they heard a loud thump and White would neither confirm nor deny Woods punched a wall in the scoring trailer.

I saw a note that said he's protesting the penalty.

 

I don't know that the PGA Tour has an appeal process for penalties assessed for rule violations. This could be a first.

 

And you know me, I'm laughing at all of this because I do not like Tiger in the least..... but I think I've made that clear here in the past. Great golfer, jerk-off person.

You guys are worse than ESPN.

Furyk 59=Tiger talk.  :D 

 

Well done Jimmy.

 

Not really, because ESPN led off their SportsCenter coverage showing Tiger make a putt, miss a putt, miss another putt and then they showed a couple shots by then leader Snedeker before saying anything about Furyk.

 

Really? Furyk shoots a 59, Tiger shoots a 74, and ESPN leads with the +2 Tiger Woods round.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
