Can Rory make it four big wins in a row? This is surprisingly a tournament that Tiger Woods has never won, so maybe that will crack down on Tiger footage....probably not. (Vijay has won it four times)

Tee Times right here.

Will be interesting to see if Rory has the motivation this week like he's had the last few tournaments. My guess is he may save his best for the Ryder Cup and TOUR Championship. No matter how he does these first few FedEx events, he will win the FedEx Cup if he wins at East Lake.

Played there in June and attended the Barclay's the last time it was at Ridgewood and was going to go again this week, but decided to go downashore tomorrow for a long weekend. Great spot to watch golf. I highly recommend it if anybody is thinking of going.

Down the shore? Which beach? I go to Ocean City, NJ and play at Shoregate when I am "down the shore". Played three rounds there last week. Tough course.

(lol, I can picture some people scratching their heads at the expression "down the shore")

All I know is that "shore" combined with "Jersey" makes me angry.

I never saw the show you are no doubt referencing, but that is a completely different type of beach community than the one I frequent. Different as night and day.

haha, thank god.

Rory currently at 3 over after going double bogey than bogey. Last place atm.

Cameron Tringale with some good karma as he's having a nice round at 3 under and tied for the lead with 6 holes to play.

Ouch, Rory bogeys ANOTHER. Bad putt. This game is so strange isn't it. One day you're firing on all cylinders and the next you're struggling to put up a respectable round.

Rory is just off today. He has to be a bit exhausted from all the appearances (off the golf course) lately.

I would love for Rickie to win the Fed Ex Cup. Playing well again at the moment.

I'd just like to see Ricky win at least one tournament.  Great year

Adam Scott always in the mix every single time - he's a real contender too

Jimmy Walker looks like Kevin Spacey

Rory finally gets a birdie.

I'm curious as to what the 2nd featured group will be.

I'd imagine it will be the Kuchar, Furyk, and Sergio group.

It is Ernie Els, Jeff Ogilvy, and Jonas Blixt.

OY! THE VOLUME IS A LITTLE HIGH ON THIS ONE FOLKS. MAKE SURE YOUR VOLUME LEVEL IS DOWN. Just a friendly tip.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

    • Oh I'm dumb, I just noticed I did the MyStrategy from the wrong tee box. I don't think it changes anything, though. I'll play it as a three shot hole and I still don't really want to miss right (guy I played with on Sunday never found his ball he hit just over the trees right). I think the trees left are considered part of the environmentally sensitive area because it's part of the drainage area for the course. I actually like this hole a lot. I'll try to remember to take a picture next time. I probably overestimated the wind speed. We had sustained winds of like 12-15mph with gusts up to 25mph. The wind is actually forecast to be WNW on Saturday instead of WSW like was when I played on Sunday so if I play this hole again the wind will be pushing towards that bunker. Similar speeds, though. Wind is always a factor at this course because there's really nothing blocking it. I'm definitely going to have to pay attention to it, especially with the wind. I hit a handful of short iron approaches a lot farther than I thought I would on Sunday. As of right now the only thing I know for sure is I'm starting on Ridge. I don't know if the back 9 will be played on Meadow or Lake.
    • Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…
    • Please forgive the sweaty shirt.  Just got off the treadmill and decided to do my Evolvr drill.  
    • I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play. 
    • Day 1: worked on my drill for my arms.
