"Well, let me just start by saying that we have had a long‑standing policy of not commenting on membership issues," Ridley said. "However, I am very excited about Annika. So I'll just say that. She is a delightful person. As you know, we have a number of women members and have for quite a few years. I think it made us a better club and they are an integral part of our culture.

"I've known Annika for quite some time, and I think she is going to be a great addition to the club. I played golf with her at an opening member event last week, and I can tell you, she can still play, and she was just a delight to be with."

      Driver vs 3 Wood

      By flopster ·

      One reason the 3 wood is staying more straight could be because it creates more backspin than the driver which will help hold a more straighter shot.

      Second Cortisone Injection Today

      So it's gonna happen the surgery that is on the 28th of February. I guess I should  be excited but I'll defer that to when I can lace up the spikes again.

      I do not. Tiger doesn't miss a green by 30 yards. From the fairway. And it's not like it was one shot. Several golfers had troubles.

      To your second point - I think we all have seen videos of top tour players hitting balls on the range and they call out the distance before getting the number from trackman - and they are amazingly accurate. But on the course they will occasionally hit a shot longer than they intended. (the commentators invariably attribute it to nerves/wind gust/adrenaline etc.) I think maybe the "environment" inside the venue is affecting their senses/feel. Which brings up a question in my mind as to how important are a players senses involved in the golf shot. What percentage is "feel" versus "mechanics". In my case, anecdotally, I have a harder time getting the distance correct if I cannot see the bottom of the flag stick.   PS:
