Watching the Rollercoaster that is Kirk's sanity throughout this match was quality content.
I’ve played golf for close to 30 years and I have never seen someone take a full cut with a putter out of the pine straw and have a divot come up like Francis. One of the more baffling club choices I have ever seen.

That blew my mind as well. I've seen a very not sober person do it for reasons I couldn't explain, but he thought it was genius in his own head. The messed up part about the guy I saw who did it was that it wasn't a lay up and he actually he rolled it up onto the front of the green from 130 yards out. You'd have thought the guy just won The US Open. Lmao!! I think Francis chose to use the putter on that lay up because he had been skulling his irons so bad the whole match that he probably figured a topped putter from the pine straw is less of a chop at his ego than topping a 7 iron and blading it 180 yards plus. It turns out that his choice completely bsckfired on him cuz he chunked his putter. Hahahaha!! Who in the world chunks their putter? Very very poor club selection on Francis' part. He was too much in his own head.

what about the fact that kirk/hank don't even finish out on 3 after the tap-in controversy. they picked their ball up themselves, thereby not recording a score on the hole so they lose to a 5 regardless. would have nullified the entire argument.
Dave showed up and instantly destroyed any rhythm Francis and Arian had. Kirk got mad and started playing like a pro.

It's funny how on 4 Francis says exactly why the rule is in place that caused the whole issue - it changes the way whoever is putting putts if they know they already have the next putt made. It sucks but yeah you can't tap it in before your teammate goes. Unfortunately it's a 5 on 3 for them. But also, someone pointed out that Kirk picked up his marker and I don't think they gave him the putt, so there's that too.
Pace of play makes a big difference. Arian was starting to get in a groove and was completely thrown off by them stopping to have a pissing match

All anyone had to do was ask Kirk and Hank what score they got on hole 3. They picked up without finishing.... thereby conceding the hole no matter what score was applied to Arian and Francis. So, this match should've been halved.

Technically if a hole is finished out by any means then that score is recorded. So saying “that’s good” before the other person putts technically secures them a 5 as much as tapping it in does. So Kirk is right about the rule for the tap in but chooses to ignore it when someone says “that’s good”, which in my mind invalidates his reasoning. Also he was being a prick.

Every scramble I've played in they allow you to tap it in to secure a score and then your partners can still better that score if they make. I just speeds up play.
