I'm a big fan of match play. They should do more of these. The Olympics should be match play too (OT). 

Plus, live golf on Wednesday! Let's go!

Agreed. MP would be much more appropriate, IMO.

Actually, no surprise the way things have been going for Rory lately. He's lost.

Yep, I looked at the leaderboard and read the status incorrect, 😉
Just like when I read my putts on greens,,, LOL

I actually wanted to say Rory was toying with Ian giving him a head start lead....
Poulter must have played lights out !!!

He had several birds and an eagle form what I recall.

Yeah...and damnit was I irritated to see that. Not able to watch and read that..then saw the truth. Loved to have seen Rory scalp Putzer.

Remember, all these guys on tour are about a stroke-and-a-half of each other in scoring average.  So if you're off your game (Rory) at the moment a Poulter can easily beat you.

Hutton slams his club down into the fairway. Was it wrong of me to wish it had bounced back and hit him in the tenders?

Sorry - I wrote Hutton instead of Hatton. Here he is with another club toss from today and the one from yesterday which was a real doozey:

I can't get over the action on that iron shaft. Did you see that thing was bending and flexing for what seemed like forever. Yeah, I know it was in super-slow-mo but never-the-less it was interesting. I did not know Hatton was a club-chucker.

I thought Bryson's comment was hilarious. Something like *I was trying to drive the green. I did it. It was just the wrong green*.

How does everyone feel about the round robin versus single elimination format? Does the round robin take away some of the excitement? 

I have mixed feelings. I like seeing so much golf on W-F, but the excitement of single elim is tough to beat.

I like that they get a second chance. Sometimes the winner can come from someone who lost the first match.

I think it’s stupid that they save ALL of the A-B matches until Friday, when half of them are inconsequential to who moves on from the group.

    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
    • Day 151 1-11 flow work today. I've been doing all pause work, so Inwanted to get some rhythm going. Recorded.
    • a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.
    • So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands  
    • Original definition use to or still is how far offline you hit it. It might be better to think of it as consistency in retaining favorable launch conditions to optimize distance.   That heat map showed a gigantic 0-3% loss in ball speed. That is absurd. The true 100% sweet spot is tiny for all clubs. Good luck telling the difference if the sweet spot is under 3% in a sizable area. Especially considering variation in launch angle, spin, and outdoor weather.
