Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

He's a big dude and doesn't have to swing hard to generate power, which is a huge advantage. It means he can theoretically be in contention for a really long time, so the sky's the limit for him. ...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

Scottie Scheffler is inevitable.

It would have been nice if anyone in the last 3-4 groups would have blitzed the course and posted a score, just to make things interesting. As it was, while I...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

Yeah, I mean you have to have a hard cut-off, otherwise it's in that realm of judgment which is why they invented that rule in the first place. But it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me that...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

Yeah, that's him. A lifetime ago. But it also nicely encapsulates how different AK and Tiger were - like 2 extremes of the spectrum of golfers. Tiger was super-meticulous and could tell if some...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

Scratchy start for AK but to be expected. It's gonna take a little time.

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

Yeah, I don't care one way or another, if they want to assign an official scorekeeper to every group that's fine with me. Doesn't affect me either way.

It just seems like a massive overreaction...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

That's why your opponents keep a scorecard for their playing competitors as well (which you can see the pros swapping at the end of their rounds in the scoring tent). I'm not sure what went wrong w/...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

I'm pretty sure all golf tournaments have basically the same rules.

I dunno, on the one hand, I understand that at the highest level, these guys are on TV and every shot can be accounted for, so...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

The mask has really fallen at this point, hasn't it? We all knew it was never really about the "tradition" and "gentlemanly competition", or "legacy" or "principles of the game", or whatever other...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

Yeah, it looks that way, doesn't it? I mean, it's getting to the point where the LIV leaderboard actually looks better than the PGA tour event leaderboard. Just the past few weeks, you had LIV...

Should have been a 58 (!!) He basically came <6 inches away in combined total putt distance from birdies on 16, 17, and eagle on 18. It was pretty disappointing actually, because I was really...

Once again showing how LIV golf has been the best thing to ever happen to professional golfers since the advent of the PGA Tour.

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

Not sure I see the connection here? How does who funds a pro tour impact a company that makes shoes and shirts for golf? I'm not saying I disagree with you, I'm just not sure I understand the...

For sure. I totally understand why they wouldn't want to pay all those big contracts (especially since the ROI on those big 'name' endorsements is questionable IMO), but not making golf apparel at...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

It's odd to me that they don't even want to make golf apparel. I get why they felt competing in golf equipment was an uphill battle, and they exited that business years ago, but making polos and...

Jay Monahan will go down as the worst commissioner of the PGA in the history of the organization (obviously), and maybe one of the worst pro sports commissioners ever. I have always followed the PGA...

Re: Actual Golf: General Tourney discussion

True. I think guys that have not won a major are more likely to stay with the PGA Tour to try to bag one, but guys that are exempt for a few years (due to winning) are more likely to be poached. ...

Finau staying on the PGA Tour. Surprising - I think this is the first time (that I can remember) someone rumored to be going to LIV didn't actually end up going to LIV. Until now, wherever there...
