Put your money there and I think you'll lose it at the first hurdle!!

Tiger blitzed the Buick but he missed the cut at The Open. That will have hurt and last time he missed the cut in a Major (US Open 2006) he came right out and won the next. But the missed cut then was a lot about his mental state, rather than his physical. I don't know - we'll see. Probably starts as a short-odds favourite at Firestone and a longer-odds fave at the PGA.

I also don't know who will win but I know who won't - Tom Watson!

I will be looking for a bounceback from Paul Casey and a top-20 finish from Poulter. Americans in the frame: Phil and ermmm.... JB Holmes (if he can keep it straight as well as long) and ermmmm...ermmmmmmmm....dunno!

Outsiders: Vijay, Todd Fushikawa (did I spell that right?), Justin Rose, Ernie Els, David Duval. Now I'm wandering into the realms of rain dancing!

And way outside the two-pick remit.

I'll go Paul Casey and TW, respectively.

I'm not going to predict the PGA until I see who's on form at the Bridgestone. I want to say that an international player will get his first American tour win in Akron, so I'll pick Ross Fisher. He's had a pretty good summer.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...

I think Tiger will win at Firestone, but I think Sergio will surprise everyone and win the PGA championship.

tiger or danny lee will win his first pga event at 19 years of age.

They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is more complicated than that.

Every frickin' time you pick AK. It's annoying. I've got Nick Watney at Firestone, and Dustin Johnson at Hazeltine. If DJ's in it.

well im bound to get it right some time in the future then, even though it doesnt look like this week! and no i dont pick him EVERY time (just most ;)) i have picked villegas (a number of times), watney and leonard at different times! oh, and whats it to you who i pick?

Not any more!

Yeh he had a little trouble yesterday. Maybe I should have picked Tiger-Tiger?

Hope Paddy wins I'd like to see him get back on track.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 2, 12/31/25.  Similar to yesterday (rainy, no surprise), I hit primarily 6-iron full swings with the same focus;  I also hit some chips (about 1/8 swing) with the 54.  About two dozen full swings and an equal number of short shots.  All of this was indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls.
