Every chunk of data has its own private bell curve.

Only 'normally distributed' data has a bell curve.  Not all data follows a normal distribution.  So no, every chunk of data is not normally distributed.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

Good point Turtleback.  My bad.  Yes, it takes a Gaussian distribution to achieve a bell curve.  Sometimes there can be skewed distribution that doesn't produce a bell curve, then you end up with what I would call a multi-modal distribution or graph.  Sorta like the distribution of my golf shots.

Cameron Tringale has been disqualified from the PGA Championship after signing an incorrect scorecard following his second round on Friday.

😣

He was in it? Lol.

Tiger just hit a gap wedge 95 yards.  Finally, he does something I can do besides missing putts!

Okay, I have turned a corner on the commercials-with-golf on the same screen view.  I just got to see Tony Finau  and Tiger Woods make putts during an AT&T commercial.  I don't much care for AT&T but their commercials are fantastic.

Playing the final 3 holes as birdie-par-birdie is pretty good.  If Tiger can play every 3-hole stretch this way tomorrow, he has a chance to win this.

Nothing like a positive attitude. If you feel like putting your money where your optimism is you can get 1500/1 on Tiger to win tomorrow

Phil quoted Dave Pelz for saying the flagstick can help you.  Phil, I don't want to tell you how to talk, but I would have said a different name if I were asked on TV about the flagstick.  

Also, Tommy Fleetwood had all that downtime during the break, he's made a ton of money over the past few years, and he didn't get his haircut.  I realize hair cut places were closed, but you'd think he could hire someone to come to his place and do it or something.  Maybe England works differently than the U.S..  I'm starting to think he's doing the long hair thing on purpose.

There’s so many in contention it feels like I’m missing a lot of shots. Don’t show McIlroy. He’s pretty much out of it.

Haotong Li had the best first pitch of anyone I've seen attempt the feat this calendar year.

This is a common bugbear of mine. Not enough coverage of golf, too much BS chat, interviews and of course commercials...

Mickelson is quite the chatterbox. The peloton is breathing down the leader’s neck.

I'm enjoying listening to Phil as an announcer. He's got some interesting insights, I think. And, he can be pretty funny.

Totally agree. I think he’s doing great. Astronomically better than Love III.

    • Day 316 - More swings, full backswing and full finish.
    • Day 132: did some mirror work while watching TV. Worked on backswing stuff primarily. 
    • 26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity. 
    • Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
