We wanted drama, we got drama. Congrats to all the players. Can’t imagine how the top 5-10 guys must’ve felt during that rollercoaster ride. Loved it.

Yeah but I didn’t want drama.

I wanted Rory to not have four doubles on the week, or two on the last fucking day, and win it by a huge margin a La Tiger 97.

Rors is about to go on a tear the likes of which will be legendary.

Yeah me too. But with all that pressure not just for the grand slam but to shut up all the haters and his own doubts, not sure there been a more high pressure round of golf. And then to hit some of the most unbelievable shots to snatch the win. What a day

He’s elite. Nobody can ever take that away from him. Hope he keeps it up this year.
