Yeah I was surprised because all I've been hearing is that Tiger should win this no problem. I mean the field isn't completely stacked but there's plenty of guys that are going to give him a run for his money.

Why not? Charles Luckman started as a soap salesman, moved up the corporate ladder until he was the president of an international conglomerate, and then had a mid-life crisis and became a world-famous architect. Surely, there can be two! Anyway, the field isn't as terrible as I had thought, but there's still only a few guys Tiger really needs to worry about. I expect a top-five finish from him, minimum.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...

I kind of enjoyed watching that Aphibarnrat guy play

He's probably on the short list of players I'd expect to give Tiger a challenge this week; he looks as though he'll be a top-50 guy very soon. Beyond him, there's Stenson, Rose, Westwood, Kaymer, Poulter, and Schwartzel; I would be surprised if anyone outside of that group takes victory besides Tiger.

Tiger on a £1.5 million appearance fee.  You have to wonder just how well he will play this week on a new course.  It's a Montgomerie design which at 7,100 yards is a very short Bent greened Par 72, which should suit the World Number 1. But as part of the Euro Tour 'Final Series' the field depth is half decent. The course and the likely target score suits Ian Poulter down to the ground, so expect 'Mr November' to keep the forward momentum going from the HSBC where he almost chased down DJ.

Tiger has yet to hit a fairway...

And he's one under through five with no bogeys.

It's amazing, a bit o' luck missing the drink on 4 and 5 though.

On a different note, Stenson's caddie is hilarious, constantly trying to mingle and no one gives him the time of day.

Looks fairly buggy out there.

      My Swing (billchao)

      By billchao ·

      Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By billchao ·

      That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.

      By billchao ·

      This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.

      One handed swing faster?

      By davidgolfman ·

      He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
