Its kind of insane how the ball doesn't come down from those trees out there.

To those wondering @nevets88's question on last page, a lot of players don't shout "fore" because they're too busy saying "there's no way that's going to hit that guy."  But for real, shout fore if there's a chance 🙂 

Re: Bryson's tee shot on #13, how does he slip like that?  I realize his swing is more powerful than mine, but I slipped like that at a demo day once... while wearing tennis shoes that I had been wearing for a year (with about no tread left).  And that was before I knew how to swing, so who knows what I was doing.

Then we had this conversation in my family.  Mom asked me yesterday what I'd do if I were just inside 200 yards to go for a shot at #18.  I told her I'd aim right of the green, avoiding the water and leaving a pitch shot as my likely next.  She pointed out that Koepka's third was about to come from there a few minutes ago, and then he pitched into the sand, which I (should not have) pointed out is about what she'd do from there.  She is able to hit great pitch shots over sand, but only when she isn't aware that there's a bunker between her and the green.

And what's this I'm hearing about someone was tackled on the 13th?

Bryson's coming apart.  While he isn't my first choice of someone near the top to win today, I don't like seeing him melt down this way.  However, him finding his ball next to someone's tailgate is weird.  Also, someone got caught tailgating!

Hey, Rahm yelled fore.  Good for him.

I’m not sure he’s even paying attention to what is coming out of his mouth. 

Bryson is throwing up on himself now.

Rory with a nice birdie at #13, almost an eagle.

Why are the tees at #14 back all week?  I like last time they were here and it was drivable on the weekend.

If L.O. wins, that shot hanging up at the front of the 13th green (his third shot) is a Freddie Couples moment.

    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting. 
    • Day 96 (18 Mar 24) - Continued work with the Divot Board with the GW and hard foam balls.  Focused on small target/small miss…setup to hit target about 30yds out - success if it hit within 6’ circle of target, fail if outside.  Had decent success averaging about 3 out of 4 (hitting in groups of four).

    • I'm relieved someone finally defined hiking. I was giddy when I saw these new TPI videos a day or so after they dropped. Very easy to understand the problem and solution the way they have presented it. Been working on fixing this for about a year and a half now. It's nice to be able to call it something so communication becomes easy.  I was working on more lateral and up too, but just having someone define it clearly in video form was so helpful for me to continue confidently with what I thought was wrong and how I had to fix it.  My conceptual error here was just trying to rotate like a tour pro but without including the necessary forward pressure/weight shift associated with enough lateral and upward motion of the pelvis.  This video is great too, as is Greg Rose.
