I think its more like this - If he gets the driver dialed in, he should smoke the competition at Augusta. On the other hand if he doesn't get the driver dialed in, he still has the flat stick to make a decent charge at the Master's.

good point.

Don't forget - Zach Johnson was one of those 'other' guys and he played pretty well too (in the same group as Tiger). I tend not to think of any win/loss as choke or not -

wow... that must be easier said than done to anyone playing in a Touney that Tigers' in..... it appears to me, that most are seeing who can finish in 2nd place.. they appear to relinquish 1st very easily when he's on the course. as an vet, I'd like to be able to spend 2 weeks with any PGA player. I can't help them swing better, or putt better, technically-wise... but I'd sure be able to impart some head-strong attitude in them if they'd listen. all they'd have to do is LISTEN, then apply.... what makes Tiger so strong? his mental toughness that was imparted to him by his Dad and Mom!!! in that category, his a cut above the rest.

If he drives like he did at Doral and putts like he did at Bay Hill, Tiger will win by a half dozen strokes.

If Tiger is on, he can turn the dial and go up a notch or two to win. If he is off he will still finish in the top 10. Looking forward to Augusta and seeing who is going to challenge Tiger for the Major. Tiger is getting close to Jack's record. He wants those wins.

ohair did gag a little late saturday and all sunday. but tiger made a all world bogey on 16 saturday. then made a better bogey on 18 saturday. then come sunday the 14th 15 th and 16th holes he played in one under when any other normal golfer plays those holes in 2 over or worse. that par save on 14 sunday was phenomenal. from a buried lye and 60 feet from the hole. the fact that he kept that bunker shot on 14 on the green was pure skill on his part.

Smoke the competition? Come on now. Tiger is going to be around for a while. Some people need to relax. There's going to be plenty of time for you to express your slightly creepy love for him. Pace yourselves.

    • That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 40 yrs My current handicap index or average score is: 4.0 factor My typical ball flight is: Straight however sometimes slight draw. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: squirt to the right due to to much arm not enough turn.

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
