Shows how closely I follow college golf. I didn't even know the guy played for Coastal until I saw it on the BSC website. If they mentioned it on TV, I didn't hear it. He looks like a rising star. Hits it a ton, and seems to have a short game too. They say he doesn't get nervous. I guess we'll find out today.

He's had a problem in the past of being at the top after Friday but losing it over the weekend and not playing well.

Exactly. The drive on 3 was reminiscent of that flick.

Played my first round of golf in a LONG time today. I wasn't playing Pebble Beach, but my score was pretty close to his Sunday round score.

Going from shooting a 66 to an 82 is not fun to watch, even if he is a former chicken.

There are choke jobs but this went so far beyond that. Perhaps it would be better described as a massive heart attack. I actually started feeling bad for him by the 4th hole.
