2018 Memorial Championship

No next day coverage? I'm not a fan of 4 hour live feeds of questionable quality.

They usually start trickling out about a half hour before the live coverage starts. Which leads to me trying to watch the edited and livestream simultaneously, as well as letting Brutus know how perfectly my feed is streaming on the live chat.

...lol

 

[araytx]

Make that -6 t5 and solo lead...

ANd now he's OB near the basket on #6

 

[brutalbrutus]

I am the kiss of death, lol.

 

[brutalbrutus]

Now 10 guys at -10...

 

[araytx]

I am the kiss of death, lol.

By the way. It's cloudy and raining here in Texas ... but unusually, by signal on the DGPT site is coming in loud and clear.

 

[TimSyl]

Anyone know why Zoe isn't playing?

jomez is out

was able to watch the whole front 9 before today's live feed actually came on. 20 min of commercials.

Nate Doss withdrew. Any news why?

Nevermind...Shoulder injury.

 

[Cgkdisc]

He's talking about it right now with Terry. Old injury from USDGC that never healed right over the winter. Too much pain when throwing. Now going to comment on live coverage.

 

[Broken Shoulder]

Not unless someone just happened to have a camera on them. He wasn't on any of the feature cards.


He's tied for the lead at the moment. -5 thru 4 holes lol.

Don't worry, it's just a Faes.

 

[Mocheez]

It bothers me that they are allowed to throw next to the teepads. Most of the reviews list the concrete teepads as a Pro. Are they really that slick? Maybe they should be replaced if they are going to continue to hold large tournaments there every year.

 

[billyjacko]

Anyone know if there's footage of Uli getting hit by the disc when he was doing his clinic? asking for a friend.

Nikko is ridiculous with how slow he plays, especially putting. His quick putts are in the 25 second range (from mini down to release). Others, like his circle 2 putt from the OB line on 4, have been in the 45-50 second range.

I know this topic gets beaten to death, and I'm sure the refrain will be "they're the last card, they're not slowing anyone down, who cares?" But it takes the live coverage, which already has more than enough dead time, and just drags it out even more.

One thing is for sure...it makes me glad I'm not quite on a level as a player that I'll likely ever get carded with him in a round. It would not be a pleasant experience for either of us.

Paul McBeth once said that he would never call Nikko for a time violation, because the more time Nikko takes on a putt, the more likely he is to miss the shot.

 

[Major Tomahawk]

A shot clock on the basket would be cool.

 

[sidewinder22]

What's disc gulp?

 

[Vonbeezy1]

Nikko going psycho on Ricky over a possible foot fault. LOL I hope I get put on his card randomly at Jonesboro. That would mean I'd also have to play way above my rating, so doubtful. But if I do, I'm hitting him with every 30 second violation and unsportsmanlike conduct. What an a**bag

What are you talking about? He saw a violation and he's trying to call it. Nobody could second it because they weren't paying attention - which they were supposed to be.

Smashboxx replay showed that throw and Ricky's foot did seem a good 2 feet behind his mini, so Nikko wasn't just blowing hot air.
