If he’s trying to go by unnoticed with the camo sweater, the ankles will give him away.

How do you think it plays for mid and high handicappers compared to more ordinary courses that most play on?

I’m betting Tiger is going to give his buddy Justin crap about his ankle look today.

My goodness, I wear ankle socks pretty much whenever I'm wearing shorts and socks, but they don't go with plus sixes (or whatever the pants Justin is wearing today are).

Danny Willett just ran in an eagle on 18.  Remember a few years ago when we were debating if you'd ever skip the Masters for the birth of his first kid?

Watching this makes me want to play the Old Course so badly. Just looks incredible. Weird, quirky, firm as hell. Looks like a freaking blast.

He forgot to pack his socks. 

He might have to jump to LIV for that guaranteed contract to afford a second pair. 😛

 

I've only watched Rory coming in but he must have had some really great shots on the front 9.

Tiger looks in great spirits warming up.

No one who shoots 40 on the first nine could ever win a major... ;-)

Condolences. Send Tiger an SMS and tell him he should not hit it into the water, but he should actually hit the cup from that distance with a putter. Completely missed it.

Lasted a whole one shot.

Missed it because my boss called right before Tiger teed off and just got off the phone with him. 😞

Annoying no matter how well you play. Anyone know why? Is it the shared greens and fairways?

They are closing in on five hours now and currently playing 14.

Shane Bacon said it's because of all the driveable par 4s and reachable par 5s being together.  Either way, I'd lose my mind if I was playing this slow.

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management.
