Luke Donald for sure. He's been on fire for this entire tournament and I don't think Kaymer's going to be able to top that.

It's a tough one, both players are solid and pretty consistent. Neither seems to have any problem with confidence or nerves either. Donald won his matches pretty confidently, he's also got a slight advantage in age and experience. Kaymer is probably overall a better player, but Donald is really good, even with his distance being shorter than the best. Fabulous iron player.

6 and 5 vs Hoffman

2 and 1 vs E Molinari

3 and 2 vs Mannasero

5 and 4 vs Moore

6 and 5 vs Kuchar

Kaymer:

7 and 6 vs Noh

20 holes vs Rose

2 and 1 vs Mahan

1 up vs Jimenez

1 up vs Watson

Luke is a Brit, but he's now been a US resident for years, and plays full time on the US PGA Tour, so he doesn't quite fit in as a European player.  He's more of an American player with a funny accent.

He was amazing.  He never trailed in a match, and never saw the 18th hole.  One of the better week long performances I've ever seen.

Let's see if they pick him for the U.S. Ryder Cup team, then.  (I'm joking, for those who think that Fourputt was serious.)

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

      Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out.

      Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though.

      Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By iacas ·

      FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By pganapathy ·

      I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
