Great comeback win for Scheffler after his PGA championship drama. Tough course. Interesting to see how players had difficulty holding greens even with short irons from fairways. 

Very watchable. A win on a tough course  is the best

Same dumb schtick since joining.

Is it me or does Knapp look like Joe Dirt?

Aside from not being a Wyndham fan and maybe tired of  Scheffler, I can’t imagine any true golf fan not seeing the superior product we watched this weekend to any LIV Tournament.    Who watches

The course did its job well. Eagles and doubles in play, single digit winning score. Scottie even made it interesting on Sunday. He made a few mistakes that nearly cost him the tournament and the putter got cold on Sunday with -1.33 SG. A lot of burned edges.

It was my left leg though, not my right light Scottie.

Dang. I would have retired to keeping my cart partner's score and drinking beers. Not necessarily in that order.

Tom Kim stands over the ball 25-ish seconds before starting the swing. Ludvig Åberg barely gets into his stance before he is done.

I don’t know what their total time per shot is, just find it fascinating.

Scheffler’s at it again.

Quote

This week's win for Scheffler was historic. All of them are at this point in his season. Since 1983, only three other golfers have won six times in a year. With two months left in the season and around five events remaining on his expected schedule, Scheffler has a chance to move even further up that list.

Quote

With a win today, Scottie Scheffler is the first player to reach 6 wins in a PGA Tour season before July since Arnold Palmer in 1962.

I had to smile quietly to myself - "No golf on a dead planet."  Really?  You people don't know golfers very well.  Not only have I played golf on dirt, I've played golf with dice.  With computers.  Board games.  I've putted on wood floors and carpets.  And often, if I'm driving by a piece of land that looks like a golf course should be placed on it, I'm playing golf in my mind.😋

They don't care. They are zealots that only have one agenda. They gaslight themselves that any opposition is against their cause. There is no reason to waste energy thinking more past this.

Two big things today.

First:

6554b6be8c0d829a8bf63ae0c82cf121_link.pn PGA Tour to see major changes, possibly by 2026

All this and more are being discussed and could be implemented as soon as the 2026 season.

Second:

I am on Rory's side. I don't care that some think Rory to be thin skinned. I completely disagree. Justified and a bit satisfying. Heckling from that close is crossing a line. I love it when douchebags get put in there a place.

BTW, I'm wondering if the phone was returned.

Not sure how I feel about that. Heckling is always been part of sports and a professional athlete should be able to ignore comments and continue on with their play.  Having said that, historically golf has a higher standard of etiquette. I agree with you that fans who are a problem shouldn’t be tolerated. I think should be removed from the premises in hopes to discourage behavior, but I’m not sure I can justify Rory taking the guys phone from him.

Fair enough but I think a firm message was warranted here. Having said that I hope the that the phone was returned later  I would think it was.

      Question About UK vs. U.S. Course Etiquette

      By RickK · Posted

      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.

      Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
