Watney

This will be a great President Cup: on one side the US Team don't want to make the infamous record of all team tournaments lost since Celtic Manor (Ryder, Walker, Solheim) while on the other side I think the Internationals got the players to beat US, great show!


You've put a pic of the Sydney Opera House with the Presidents Cup, it's in Melbourne. Would be like putting a pic of the cup and the Statue of Liberty when it was held in San Francisco.

Melbourne doesnt have a world renowned landmark. So what icon do you think they will use for Columbus in 2013??


US team looks stronger - 18:16.    Whats with the lack of euro guys - seems flawed they are not allowed to play to represent the int'l team ?

MVP:  Watney

The International team is everyone but the US and Europe. Europe plays in the Ryder Cup.

The President's Cup, as an event, really needs the internationals to win this one. I'm a bit worried the Aussies will be skittled out for 47, though. Whoops, sorry, wrong game.

I can't believe it happened. I was watching and said that with the wicket still doing a bit, we'd rather not bat and get bowled out cheaply. I thought we might make 150, at one point 25 was looking like a stretch. I've never seen 2 hours of such good bowling ever on a tv screen.

    • Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress. 
    • Day 130: did a stack session. 
    • Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20. 
    • Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!
    • Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
