I don't think so. These guys know how to play golf. What's a guy driving around in a cart going to do that Steve Stricker driving around in a cart isn't doing?

It's an exhibition event and nobody is going to get more eyeballs and more publicity for the President's Cup than Tiger Woods. It's an absolute no brainer for him to play as long as he's healthy, IMO.

I have never been excited for a Presidents' Cup, and this year won't be any different. Seriously, just give the US the W already and lets move on.

Finally...a putt. We need a huge momentum shift. Ball striking just not there. Ugly.

My Marines knew how to fight too.  But sometimes it takes leadership to pull them all together into a cohesive unit rather than just a group of highly talented individuals.

There’s a reason we scrutinize football coaches that lose too many games despite talented individual players too.  
 

Just a thought...

I think you're vastly over-estimating how much captains "coach" in these things.

The comparison to a football coach who actively makes calls re: strategy, deployment, alignments, plays, etc. is not appropriate.

And again, Stricker is out there captaining right now. He won the last PC.

I’m thinking less “coaching”, and more “leading/inspiring”...

We are running out of holes today. DJ looks lost on the greens. Woodland just lost. Reed and Simpson??  Woods and JT grinding. It should be easier fo these guys. 
 

internationals want it more as of now.

I think your dislike for Tiger is clouding your judgment.

Stricker "lead" just fine two years ago.

Or if the captain and his team had focused last week on learning the course instead of kicking off silly season in the Bahamas.

DJ needs to sit tomorrow. Back to back days his group getting slaughtered. The time off from injury is showing. Maybe should have sat this one out.

Should've pulled a Brooks, yeah, and stayed home. Kevin Na would be well received right now, I think.

This is so hard to watch.  Looks like a bunch of locals taking all the money from visiting tourists.

is it possible we don’t even make it to Sunday.

DJ has yet to play 16 holes in a day. 
 

International squad is making the shots they need to. We are looking timid. 
 

If we don’t grab at least 2 points this session it could be done Friday for us.

Between the Ryder Cup and this, we really need to evaluate who can compete the foreign courses the best.  Just because a player is top 8, doesn’t mean that player should automatically be selected.

      Strategy - Inverary Golf Club Hole 14

      Nice, I just thought mine was a decent guess to rule out a few things and did not expect to hole out.

      Strategy - Inverary Golf Club Hole 14

      By 4zim ·

      Hey team. This is a very difficult hole at the course I started golfing on and where I often go back. I always struggle - it’s narrow (35y) with trees on both sides. If you go lateral, you’re out of bounds. The green also feels small.    I play the white tees usually, so 30 or so yards up from here. If I hit my driver, it usually goes lateral and lost or if it curves it hits a tree and I lose a ton of distance.   I carry my 7i probably about 140-145, with 5-7 yards of roll out. Driver is 265 with roll out on a good strike with a premium ball, but probably closer to 220 carry on average. My hybrid goes about 180-200 including roll out but has been fading quite a bit recently not too much wind on this hole and the ground is hard, but I’m not sure I’ve practiced a long punch. If that’s what I need to work on, happy to put in the time.  Appreciate any advice anyone has, approach to holes like this, or other things to consider.
