Most people place their chip back in their slightly open stance, weight on the front foot. As stated, the goal is just enough height and length to reach the green/fringe and roll the rest of the way. Again many play the SW for 2:1 flight:roll, PW for 1:1, 9i for 1:2, 8i for 1:3, etc.

My personal demons are the slightly elevated green (hard to get enough lift to land on the green -- often switch to a pitch, even if close) or downhill lies.

Pitches -- long, high flight, very short/no roll are in the middle of the stance.

    • The hell is Thomas Fleetwood wearing? He looks like a divorced dad from 1998. Even the shoes are hideous 
    • I was wondering this and haven't seen it on today's broadcast OR yesterday's, but apparently Cabrera did show up.  He currently has the third highest score for the week and is playing his last hole of this year's event.  I'm not particularly keen to see him, but I was wondering if he was present, and he seems to be.
    • Hatton hit 18 GIR.  That's incredible.   Rory's tee shot on #8 reminds me of a TV show, Get Smart, that I enjoyed watching as a kid.  The protagonist would often say "missed me by that much."  Rory missed avoiding the bunker by that much.
    • Rory is still going well! Pulling for him.
    • Day 556 - 2026-04-10 Played another 17 holes, this time skipping #11 to pass a group that was still on 14 when we were finishing up. 😛 Not as good as yesterday, but more distracted by the mind's eye.
