Hey guys,

So I just became an Established Member, so I'll guess I'll have to introduce myself. My name is Jørgen, and I'm from Norway. Just started playing golf this summer, so my game mostly sucks. But I'm having a lot of fun! I've managed to play two 18-hole rounds so far, but since I live far north the season is really short (also having a wife and kid tends to cut back on the golfing pretty well ). I've also been to a local driving range a lot, and I try to play in a Full Swing simulator once in a while.

So hi everyone!

Hello Jørgen!

As somebody who used to live in Stavanger, I enthusiastically welcome you!

And although the norsk golf season is short, you can get 3 rounds in a single day with the daylight!

Hi Dent! It's pronounced kinda like "Yergen". With a g-sound as in golf (as opposed to gin). The Ø is a scandinavian letter, and is a mix of an O and E.

Welcome; my great grandparents emigrated from Norway to Canada and I'd love to go there someday. The fact that there seems to be decent golf there makes it even better

      Rory McIlroy Will Never Win the Masters

      By TommyRude ·

      There is 100%, incontrovertible, undisputed evidence and proof that he wasn’t winning majors from 2015 - 2024. Even though I concede that my take is laughable, I don’t think it’s laughable to say that Rory’s major drought during that period is one of the most extreme droughts in modern golf history.  Extreme meaning, with his innate and physical talent (AND his major record pre-2015), he could’ve should’ve won multiple majors during that period. If you agree with that, then the question is why?  What was preventing him from closing the deal on majors?

      Rory McIlroy Will Never Win the Masters

      By klineka ·

      You have no proof that Rory's perceived "jackedness" was hindering him from hitting the crucial shots under pressure at the majors. I don't think his jackedness caused Rory to miss a combined like 7 feet of putts over the last 2 holes at the 2024 US Open.

      Rory McIlroy Will Never Win the Masters

      By TommyRude ·

      Not a problem chetlover, as I look back - even thought I truly believed in the take - it looks laughable.  IF - Rory had done some of the things I mentioned and lost, I’m sure I would have trumpeted how prescient I was.  But now, perhaps my take can be considered for a Wall of Shame. Colin M - - haha, he’s jacked for sure - jacked on Big Macs. Brooks and Bryson;  Brooks buffness looks pretty natural?  And Bryson - definitely on the bizarre end of the spectrum.  But for both Brooks and Bryson, they were winning majors.  Whatever jackness they had-have, natural or extreme, was not hindering them from hitting the crucial shots under pressure, at the majors.

      Did Rory ever explain the horrible pitch on 13? Was it a miss hit?

      ^^^ I think this year gave us something incredibly exciting, but also special. That list of career grand slam winner is something else. Well, except for Gary Player.
