Is it on now?  I'd love to watch, a young man from my home club is now 2 up with 7 to play, I'd love to see it live.

I’m watching a recording of the Round of 32. Not sure if they are televising the Round of 16?

Wait, Round of 16 is tomorrow at 11:00 on Peacock, then at 12:00 on the Golf Channel.

No, the 16 is over, tomorrow is the round of 8, tee times starting at 930, semifinals begin at 200.  Ill have to record the telecast, I think I'm playing tomorrow.  My young friend won again this afternoon, really impressive play against some really good players.

I changed the title. Two things.

  • Please include the year, as this event occurs every year, so…
  • It's not the Men's U.S. Amateur. It's open to anyone, of any gender.

The U.S. Women's Amateur, on the other hands, is not. And includes the word "Women's."

Not sure what you mean. No, pretty busy.

Right. But they are televising it in the morning.  I don’t know why they do that? I suspect it’s the PGA.

Anyway, who are you watching/rooting for?

Alex Price plays at my home club, his dad is on the bag.  I've known his mom and dad for more than 25 years, great people, and Alex is a really nice kid.  Alex is the only Div III player still playing, a real underdog.

the past couple of weeks, I've been watching a lot of the NCAA's and Amateur Tournaments on the golf channel and i like watching them because even though they are "amateur's" they are so damn good!!!!!!!!   but even they do make some mistakes, but their fixes are good too!!       

I think a lot of it, for me anyways, is even though my golf game sucks!!  I'm always trying to learn from everyone!  even if they are on TV.  

But it also makes me think our game of golf has a damn good future because of these people

One of the strangest moments on Sunday was Ben Carr going for the green on the 13th after Bennett went OB.

I couldn’t believe Wilcox didn’t stop and talk to Carr after Bennett was lying 4 in the rough just off the green.

While not a Tin Cup moment, it sure would have been the time for the caddie to implore a wedge-wedge layup and win the hole.

I actually enjoyed this more than the BMW. Cantlay’s bunker shot on 18 was impressive. But my goodness he’s a bore. I was pulling for Carr, still a great fight to come back from down 5 to the 36th hole.

Felt the same way. A big wow moment for a missed opportunity!

    • I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙
    • Day 28: 2026.01.30 Managed to make time for a few swings out back today. Need a proper bit of range time this weekend.
    • Day 30, 1/30.  Six minutes this morning hitting a few more range balls, indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Did this before leaving the house.

    • Hi All my New Year’s resolution was to start playing golf again. I’ve caught the bug and am really enjoying hitting balls at a couple of my local ranges.looking forward to getting back out on courses in the spring. Based in the UK and 38 years old, I’ve been playing since I was a kid. Best handicap I’ve held is 2 in my mid 20s. Over the past 10 years I’ve played once or twice a year, sometimes with friends or for work. Could shoot 4-5 over, but just as easily shoot 15-20 over. I’ve moved to South Wales and am very lucky to be near some world class links courses, which gives me even more motivation to get playing again! I will start looking for a local coach in my area when I have more time to invest, but I recalled scouring this forum a few years ago and finding some good tips and advice so wanted to give it a try to see if there were any glaring issues I could fix in the meantime!  A few swings below… one from 1st week Jan and one from today. I have fixed my P1 takeaway to my liking and am now working on what I see as pretty severe early extension & hip thrust. Also terrible hip rotation. I’d like confirmation that this is indeed a problem and and suggestions on a few good drills. Thanks for reading 🙂 I've been Playing Golf for: 30+ years My current handicap index or average score is: 10ish over My typical ball flight is: mid The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push right with irons, hooks and push with driver!  Videos:
