especially toward the end of the day. Having DVR'd the tourney, I replayed one of Scottie's putts from about 20 ft. yesterday...he had perfect speed on it and it was trundling down headed straight for the center of the cup...then, within inches and took a hard right and missed. That's Poa for you.

Of course everyone had to deal with it, but Wyndham handled it better than most, especially on the short par saving putts...he habitually tamped down the line on those putts...not for ball marks, but the unevenness due to patchy growth and foot traffic.

As to Wyndham Clark the player...I'm convinced he is truly repentant over what happened last year...so, hopefully there will be less harassment of him in the future, but of course it's unreasonable to expect all the cretins to suddenly vanish. He will be a contender for quite awhile.

        • Green speed is not the ultimate defense at Oakmont. It's fairways hit and greens in regulation. - Hensou - 2:56pm 6/22/26
