I have to think Rocco would have the advantage on the par threes today, and Woods would have a huge advantage on the par 5s

Well, they finished the same way they finished 16-17-18 yesterday. They both parred the par 3 and par 4, and Tiger birdied the par 5. Advantage has to be el Tigre on the face of it, but Rocco didn't get here by accident. I can't wait to get home and actually watch this, but I can't not refresh to find out what's going on!

Nothing in the swing is done at the expense of balance.

NBC needs to play the theme song from "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" as Tiger and Rocco walk down the 7th Fairway. Cmon guys, be creative.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 33 (13 Dec 25) - Worked on weight shift and resetting the left heel during downswing (after listening to a discussion on Golf School this morning on PGA Tour Radio).  It centered on how Jack Nicklaus lifted his lead heel and how long driver champs do as well.  Taking cues from that discussion, worked an exaggerated feel of the left heel working doing some swing drill in the backyard using the 7i.  Wrapped up the session by hitting a few low bump and run shots in the backyard - keeping the process slow and exaggerated.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
