The PGA Tour has seen a fall in TV viewership in recent months, and LIV Golf star Ian Poulter could not...

 

Talk about sensationalizing the headline. "Brutal swipe"? It's not like anyone is really watching Ian Poulter (or ever really did).

I might be remembering wrong, having a Mandela Effect, but I believe Curtis Strange was referred to as ‘The Postman’ well before Poulter. 

The internet does not reveal anything to support such a claim, therefore you must be mistaken, The internet is never wrong.

What I do remember from ‘89-90 is having a guy in my fraternity that looked like Curtis Strange so we all called him the Postman.

A good example for those who think they should get a free drop from a divot hole. The golf gods giveth and take away…..🙂

5 in a row  for  Korda  now and a  major. 

Meanwhile on the PGA Tour, Scheffler is five ahead through 15 with play to resume on Monday.

If he wins, it would be his fourth in five starts. Has two players ever dominated like that simultaneously?

Is wyndham clark going to be the GOAT 2nd place 3rd place guy

We will see once Meredith has the baby and Scottie takes some time off. I'm sure there are a lot of guys wishing she would hurry up and have the kid already. Wyndham is one of them. I'm glad to see him not winning. I don't like him. I lean towards him not winning Pebble if it went 72 holes. He got lucky, Aberg may have passed him.

Interesting that Scottie is #10 on the all time money list and he's been on the PGAT for 4 years. Of course, purses are bigger now, but  neat to look at non-the-less. 


This list is updated through the 2024 RBC Heritage.

To add, Scottie won 4.5 million at the Players, Jack played 44 seasons and won a little of 5 million on course.

This lead up to LIV Adelaide has the same fell as a normal Major

Dude. Stop.

It does not.

If you're just here to troll about LIV stuff, go somewhere else. When you make stupid statements like that, it's trolling.

What “Lead Up”?  I’ve not seen a single article until I just googled it.  I see no hype.

I had an article on Cam Smith pop up along with this.....


Here's a look at which majors, if any, all LIV Golf players are eligible.

    • On the subject of teenagers in professional tournaments there is a kid (Kris Kim) who is a member of my club in England and is at my old school. He’s 16. He’s playing in the pga tour event in Texas this week. Shot 69 yesterday for T31 and is -2 today through 5 holes. T55 and on the cut line. I really hope he makes the cut. Will be awesome.    His dad I believe is a teaching pro and his mum was on the LPGA Tour for a while. 
    • I have two contenders here that stick out to me: In second place, a putt to win the hole playing the 16th hole at Burnham and Berrow. Playing foursomes and the green has a big bank at the front then a flat bit and then it goes up again to a back shelf. My partner had hit our second shot onto the back shelf. We were 2up at the time and he was being a little wobbly so we didn’t want to lose the hole. Our oppo were conceded a 4 and my partner told me to just lag it down there nicely. 20 year old me meant to do that and failed. I hit it a bit hard and it was definitely going to clear the tier and probably run off the front of the green, but it hit the hole right in the middle and went in. My partner was very happy we won the hole but quite upset at my ability to follow instructions.    Number 2 is my most memorable. I was about 16 playing in the junior knockout at my club. We get to the 10th hole - long par 4 and index 2. I didn’t hit a very good drive, hit my second up about 60 yards short and pitched on to maybe 25 feet. I started walking and I got this feeling. I knew I was going to hole it. There was no doubt at all. I’ve never felt like that any other time in my life but this one putt was a certainty. It was February and the greens had been recently hollow tined so they were in awful shape. I didn’t even line it up. I hit my putt and it bumped and bounced all over the place until it went in the middle of the hole. If I could bottle up that feeling and sell it I’d be up there with Bezos and musk. Mind blowing!
    • It's strange how ONE person can be THAT much different/better/whatever than anyone else.
    • I saw a YouTube review on a bunch of ball brands and the Maxfli Tour X did very well in comparison. I bought a sleeve and found them to be excellent in feel and distance. But I’m a lousy golfer so nobody probably cares about my opinion. 😃
