Hey all,

For those who, like me, set their fantasy teams early in the week, you should know that several players, including such fantasy regulars as Anthony Kim, Steve Stricker, and Brian Gay have withdrawn from the Memorial. I had to change two players from both my ESPN BB team and the PGATOUR.com TST league.


If this should have been posted within the fantasy thread instead (which I doubt), could a moderator please move it there?

To the best of my knowledge, Badds is still in it. The

Tee Times listing is current, I think.

Thanks for the warning. I don't believe I had any of those guys on my team. It's surprising to see so many guys withdraw from such a prestigous tourney.

I was surprised as well. Villegas and Tim Clark are two other fantasy regulars who dropped out. Not really sure why so many withdrew, I imagine if they want rest before the US Open they could just take next week off.

I double-checked, and I had Vijay Singh on my team. So I'll take a 0 for that one this week. I should have checked before the start of the tournament.

The conditions look to be pretty brutal judging by the scores guys are putting up today. The cut line has moved to +4, and that will probably be +5 before long. There have been a lot of rounds in the mid-to-high 70s as well as a few 80s (damnit Charles Howell).

I think Vijay's is injury related. I heard something about a rib injury.

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂
