Jack Nicklaus just trashed the younger guys:
"If they don't win, they still walk home with a big check," Nicklaus said. "They don't have to do some of the things the Watsons had to do, the Normans, the Lehmans, and that's to gut it out. It doesn't mean the young guys will be out of it. It just makes it appear as though the guys who have had that experience are coming to the top."
"When we played golf, it wasn't to make a living," Nicklaus said. "It was to make a name for yourself so you could make a living."

I understand the reason, but still think its bogus. Theoretically you could have 70 guys at E par. 1 guy at +1 in 71st place who doesnt make it to the weekend at 1 back. I know that is ridiculous as it would never happen, but still the 10 shot rule should always be in effect. The rest of the majors do it unless I am mistaken?
At what point do you feel as though you are playing so bad that you are a distraction to your group? I mean I feel like an ass when I am having a worse day than normal and I am playing with three guys who are hitting fairways and greens. I almost feel as though my horrible play is getting in their head and I feel bad.
looks like els and westwood will make the cut.
this is the last time i believe something i read on espn, either harrington was exagerrating his injury or they made it seem worse than it was. i thought i had a edge on these matchups but it has not turned out this way. harrington's having a hell of a tournament if he is injured

Belly- I was not implying that he should or anyone should at any point, but I know I am not good at golf. I have broke 90 only a few times, but when I am having a day when for whatever reason I am particularly BAD, I really feel as though I am more of a distraction to the others that I am playing with, especially if I do not know them and almost feel like they are secretly hoping beyond hope that I do not make the turn with them.
