Live from Southern California. This is the Jim Rome Show.

Let's get started. First things first. If you know anything about me, if you know anything about this show,

you know there's something that I hate. Hate's a strong word. I don't like to use the word,

but I hate this. It's something that I keep under glass and I only break in the case of true emergencies

But I've got to bust it out right now. Thank you, Alvin. I got to bust it out right now based on what I saw at the US Open yesterday. Are you ready? I don't say it very often, but I'm going to say it right now. A sea bomb. A sea bomb choke

I'm really careful about using that word honestly

but Rory McElroy choked yesterday.

Truly Norman-esque, honestly, a joke for the ages.

It was brutal to watch. He was absolutely excruciating.

And then there is the flip side to Rory's joke job, Bryson Deschambo.

That dude did not joke at all.

He was tough as hell, he was clutch as hell

in winning his second US Open

with one of the best up and down

you will ever see, and then kicking off a party

at Pinehurst that might still be going on right now as we speak.

But let's spin it back a few holes first.

No, you know what?

Let's spin it back a few years.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past decade you know it's been 10 years

since Rory want a major and that's different than saying that it's been I don't

know 20 years since Todd
