Nope, this is it. πŸ˜„ 

Scottie, Rory… Brooks, Bryson. Those are my top four picks.

That feels about right. It's going to be long.

Butch was on Claude Harmons podcast and talked about his work with Rory. Big thing was his wedge game and working on that swing. Interesting listen. 
 

Looking forward to this one. Agree with the above picks, although I’d like to see Fleetwood pick up a W.

There's a weight off Rory's shoulders it seems so he's on my radar.

Scottie has to slow down at some point, is this his week? 

Brooks is a possible. 

I figure there are about 10 guys with a realistic chance of winning, and Michael Block isn't one of them. We can move on from him now.  Knowing my luck he will hang around high enough up the leader board and he can reset that 15 minute clock.

Daly? Really?

Add Blow-pig to the list. He hits a 'reliable' fade and can get hot with chips and putter.

Why is he there? I get the past champion thing and everyone loves him but he has no chance of winning.

There are players in every major (especially at The Masters) that have no real chance of winning.

I feel like having a lifetime exemption and being a fan favorite is enough reason for him to be there.

I don't think most people going through a divorce would consider it a weight off their shoulders.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

It could be. Or not.

Again, after breaking up with Caroline (not a marriage but they were engaged), he went on a pretty great run.

Bachelor for life! Why to buy the cow if you can drink the milk for free??

Rooting for Spieth as always despite him having almost none chance of winning. I have Rory.. bryson and Scotty with real chances of winning. Would like to see Rham in contention, long time without a win.

Wow, some ringing endorsements of marriage!

I can respect that. There's enough humans on the planet at the moment anyway so if some folks want to opt out then I usually make it a point to thank them.

But, I digress.

Anyway, pulling for Rory. Who here doesn't think golf owes him one right about now? Professional golf would be better if Rory/Scheff went at it trading blows for a couple of three years.

Really? Your definition of a "long time" is unusual.

I was thinking the same thing. The guy won a major 13 months ago...

And has 2 Top 10s out of his last 4 majors with one of those being a T2....

    • @dennyjonesand I are planning to stay in the Poland, OH area Friday night.  If any want to get together for dinner and/or drinks let us know. We are not sure exactly where we will stay or what time we will get there but if we can hook up with any of you it would be fun.
    • Yes, this was a competition for local golf professionals, so I knew he was at minimum a pretty competent player.  I also asked what kind of shot he needed to play, if he had wanted to go steeply down it could have altered my thinking.  But he needed a pretty level angle of attack to get the ball up, and have it stop near the hole.  Given those factors, and the depth of the grate below the ball, there really was no possibility that the grate would interfere with his swing.
