I am not a man........I am Cantona
Venue: Atlanta Athletic Club, Georgia
Date: 11-14 August

Should be a cracker this year. The usual suspects are all in with big shouts....
McIlroy, Johnson and Kaymer and Schwartzel are capable of winning here. Conditions could be v harsh by the end of the weekend. Mikelson is the biggest price I've seen for a major in years @28/1. Think putting will be key by Sunday as the greens will be lethal.
 
This is sad to watch McIlroy here. He'll be lucky to get out with a triple, and he can't move his wrist. He should just pull out here.
 
The talent aspect yes, but he's a bit of an odious man by all accounts.
 
Donald and Westwood fecking up again. Will they ever win a major? Both should be right up there this week.
 
American golf fans are so annoying. Why do they shout "Get in the hole" for every shot, even tee offs, as if players would get a hole in one on a par 5? It's actually retarded.
 
This was looking a little boring with a couple of no-names in the running until the last three or four holes. One takes a triple bogey to hand over a four short lead, then he goes on a birdie blitz and the leader goes bogey, bogey, bogey.
 
Not bad winning the first major you play in. Probably never hear his name again.
 
Great TV yesterday - a bit gutted for Dufner, you have to be for anyone who throws a tournament away like that, let alone a major.

I'm very happy for Bradley though, have thought all season he was one of the better rookies - two wins (he won the Byron Nelson Classic in May) including a major your first year isn't a bad haul! I think the exact opposite mjs, I think you'll be hearing his name a lot in the coming years.
 
Yeh, Bradley's got a good swing. He's a bit like Jason Day - you can't see them not competing in the future, because they're pure ball strikers.

Those last 4 holes were always going to be hideous on the last day - you just have to play the course as a 14 holer, then just play the final four as independent holes. Ridiculously hard stretch.

Don't mistake a comment for a thought.

Incidentally, I have a neighbor that won two PGA tournaments one year, and finished about 15th on the money list. He barely figured on the PGA tour for around a decade after that until he recently won the PGA event in Puerto Rico twice.
