Love golf. Almost addicted to watching Sat. and Sun afternoon PGA events. Golf is nice cause I don't root against anybody. I want all the players to hit great shots and make fabulous putts. I do have one that I pull for more than the others and that's Tony Finau. I think he's a year or two away from picking up a green jacket.

These are 3 rounds, like the women's regional, right?
Correct and top 5 move on so barring a collapse of baseball national champion proportions we should move on.
We're 15 strokes up on 6th place.

See, I’m the opposite. I love a good British Open Saturday where the winds are blowing 40 mph off the North Sea and players are having to scratch and claw to break 80 at Carnoustie.

I like him too. He's come a long way the last couple of years. Wouldn't be surprised if he won the PGA this week.

They're having to make great shots just to scratch out some pars and bogeys in those conditions. I'd hate to think what my score would be with all that. I might break 200.

Finau is one of my favorites too.

Trying to hold off a surging BYU today to win the regional, but looks like we will advance to nationals.

Glad to see this, and our women’s team is doing great! As one of the few PGM universities in the country, this seems long overdue. I hope we can become more consistent title contenders in a small sport like this….

It’s absurd that we had to wait so long to win a title when there are inexpensive sports like golf, bowling, beach volleyball, etc. that we could be dynasties in by now.

Looks like we won the regional! We finished the tournament at -1 and BYU (which surged all day), finished at +4. Men and women win their regional! Impressive.

Edited to add: Poor Northern Colorado...they will be around +60 when they are finished for the day.
