It’s time for our US Open contest . This will also serve as the place for the tournament chat bringing the banter and conversation through the entire 2022 US Open which is ripe with huge story lines.
Over the last two weeks, a rival promotion has popped up, with many players signing on to the LIV Tour and this is the first major in which both tours will have representation in the field.
The Prize
The winner of this contest will get a brand new Srixon ZX5 or ZX7 driver of their choice. If you do not know which one to pick or want to learn more about the technology, you can read our preview of them here.

I think I saw someone choose him.
Better than Squairz, lol
True story.
That would have been amazing
I chose him for fantasy… But not in this thread ?
There were a few of us. Luck of the draw now!
Chico. The mascot for the El Paso Chihuahuas.
Also, Fitz gave another plug for the Stack System.
There were 19 picks by my count. Used the search feature for Fitzpatrick ZX and hit the only in this thread on the drop down.
Hahaha that is dedication.
the dude is worse than Steven A. Smith’s antics…and I get SAS’ schtick…shamblee? sounds bitter and toxic.
I was one of them, gave me just enough incentive to find out. Definitely wouldn’t have done it for the rest of you lugs ?
I mean ok I’ll allow that.
When you posted there were 19, my first thought was "100% he is one of the 19"
Good luck to those who chose wisely
And of course after the interview, Chamblee changed the topic to the LIV so he could rant and rave again. I instantly turned the TV off as soon as he started in on it, no desire to listen to that idiot slobber all over himself.
I’ve always watched golf to enjoy golf and escape all the political and factional garbage. I completely quit watching the NFL when they injected the political and hypocritical woke garbage into the fabric of the game and I haven’t watched a single game since. I’ll do the same with golf if they do it too.
Very popular win amongst the members and staff at my old club , Woburn. Fitzpatrick won the British Masters there a couple of years go and was liked because of his modest and polite manner, a genuine good guy.
And his caddy, Billy Foster is also well liked, despite being a Leeds Utd fan, after caddying for Seve, Westy and Clarke for 39 years.

I hope Wills can pull it together soon.
I picked him Sunday morning… does that count?
Chamblee is insufferable. I couldn’t watch the interview at the end, what a total clown. He ruined it for all fans with his combative demeanour.
I listen to people with strong opinions on a daily basis so Brandel does not bother me. He is righteous and pontificating, some would say a know-it-all or unsufferable, but I don’t mind listening.
It’s also his job to be opinionated and somewhat controversial, drive discussion outside of the channel. He’s good at his job.
Disagree not right after the round was won, during the US Open. It’s a time of celebration not criticism. His delivery was terrible and even more so was his rant on the LIV.
His opinions are absolutely fine between rounds with other analyst, not grilling the winner the day of, again his delivery was terrible.
Time and place….. During around having it out with other analyst it’s a good look and it works just fine. Interrogating the winner of the US Open the day is ridiuclous.
Best major of the year and most exciting tournament of the year – I didn’t turn away for a second.
Let’s hope the Open at SA in a few weeks is as exciting, and I am sure it will be.
No, they are defunct. That’s why Fitzpatrick reached out to Bettinardi, to make him copies of the Yes! he had been using so effectively.
Good post and I loved it. What makes it special to me is seeing Fitz winning it his first time and his first tourney win, it was a good showing! I also like how it sets up for the Open Championship, hoping one of the US studs can go and claim the claret this year.
I turned it on for a few minutes on NBC to see the score when Will was -6 and up by 2. My wife walked past and was like "Isn’t that the guy you really like?" I was like "Yep" she’s all "did you pick him to win on your forum thing?" I’m all "No…I picked Rahm" she just looks at me – I told her I know…I know.
I really like him and he’s bound to break through sooner than later. I think once he gets one big win he’ll go on a run. He’s proven he can play, he just isn’t there yet for closing it out.
I watched that interview this morning with the analysts. I thought it was okay. I mean, Fitz accepted the invitation, knew it was Brandel, knew his style – lots of questions and critiques. Makes it more interesting than the typical overgratious fawning over the winner interview.
NBC’s coverage overall left a lot to be desired. And that’s just considering the actual golf that was played.
I can understand why the felt a need to address LIV. It’s a huge story in golf. But there’s a time and place for it. That time and place is not during the interview of the Champion or in the recap of the Championship.
I have a new name for Chamblee. To me, he is “Mr. Mute” because that’s what I’m going to do to the tv every time I see him.
I usually have no issues with Chamblee but I didn’t like his statement before his question to Fitz that golf needed great stories this year. WTF? I know what he was referencing. Wrong time IMO.
Don’t remember it … but Brandel is in danger of being the story.
So true.
Please send @GolferGal a PM with your full name and shipping address and confirm you want ZX7.
Surprisingly, it was the driver, not his putter, that let Will down yesterday
winning a THP prize is always awesome ?
Let’s go Brandel!
I’ll take him over the drunk frat boys yelling mashed potatoes.
