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

I knew it was six but couldn’t name Craig Wood. His fields must’ve been pretty silly.😖

Good read. I wonder if Sergio has ever bothered to read about this guy? Thanks for posting @brocks.

You guys should do yourselves a favor and read this article about Wood:

article-urn:publicid:ap.org:9dd3c1862934

6554b6be8c0d829a8bf63ae0c82cf121_link.pn Craig Wood, a study in major championship heartache | Daily Mail Online

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Dustin Johnson already knows plenty of heartache in the majors. He just doesn't know Craig Wood...

 

From the article:

Quote

He was the footnote in history for the "shot heard 'round the world" in 1935 at Augusta National. Wood was in the clubhouse at 6-under 282. Only one other player on the course had a chance to catch him and that was Gene Sarazen, three shots behind. The crowd was congratulating him. His name already was on the winner's check. And then Sarazen holed out with a 4-wood on the par-5 15th hole for an albatross 2.

Sarazen was three back with four to play and they were already congratulating Wood? Seems a little premature. Maybe back in the day people weren't expected to be able to birdie a bunch of holes in a row?

Remember in 2011 when everyone was talking about getting the first Australian to win the Masters between Adam Scott or Jason Day, then Charl Schwartzel comes out of nowhere to birdie the last four holes and win?

I love how that threw the expert announcers for a loop.

      That may have been to offset my error in the HCPs for that day??? 😁

      There was a P.C.C. at Eagle Sticks Saturday of +1. I posted from the hotel Saturday night so I made my small contribution to the +1.

      2024 TST Birdie Challenge

      By mcanadiens ·

      It's been a remarkable slow start for me this year, but I finally cracked through with my first two birdies of the year over the weekend. Ironically they were the 18th at Community (Hills) GC Saturday and then No. 1 at Miami Shores on Sunday. Don't ask about the rest of them. For the purposes of the chart, I'll just use Miami Shores. Most of the golf I play any more is there and normally the front nine only.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By BabaYaga ·

      39-35 today for a +2 (74) on a 72.6/129. Struggled over the first few holes as I bogeyed five straight to start. Wasn't even striking the ball bad - just couldn't hit a green and didn't hit good chips + one penalty. Then I went -3 over the next 6 to save the round and then parred the last 7. Golf is fun.

      The Holdovers. Birdie. I’m a big Paul Giamatti fan and felt this was an exceptional performance. The film has a great blend of comedy and heart felt drama.
