Yes, slow play is a thing we talk a lot about with golf in 2023, but with Brian Harman — who entered Sunday leading The Open Championship 2023 — it’s not a huge complaint.
That said, it’s Harman’s pre-swing waggle that’s all the buzz as he’s played at Royal Liverpool. And it’s annoying a lot of fans who want him to hit faster.
The Open Championship: Live leaderboard, Schedule, Tee times
He tees up or gets behind the ball and then it begins: A little tiny preview of the backswing. He looks at his target. He looks down at the ball. His heels go up and down and his lower half waggles. It could happen eight or nine times and then he’s ready.
Here’s what people have said:

Two more days of watching Brian Harman waggle 53 times before every shot is going to kill me.

If Harman can keep his 3-1 waggle-to-shot lead ratio going forward, I like his chances. Will be interesting to follow.

Hey, if he wins, the waggle will be worth it.
