Rory McIlroy, who was last seen turning in a Masters performance that should’ve caused him to replace his caddy with Dr. Henry Heimlich, cruised to a U.S. Open win on Sunday, while the golfers in the field sporting University of Georgia connections performed so poorly that Dawg Sports readers were forced to spend the U.S. Open open comment thread discussing soccer instead.

McIlroy finished at 16 under par, while his closest competition with an Athens association was Russell Henley, who plummeted 21 spots into a 42nd-place tie at four over par. However, Henley still finished second only to Patrick Cantlay among amateurs participating in the tournament. Bubba Watson dropped six slots in the standings to end up tied for 63rd at nine over par, while Christo Greyling was among the linksters who stood at 68th, four places behind his standing after Saturday, at 13 over par.

Go ‘Dawgs!
