I'd like to win the U.S. Women's Open, of course. It's the richest purse on the LPGA tour.

Yeah I think the only problem with woman's golf is the coverage well here in the uk it is very boring because when the solheim cup was on the atmosphere and the sky features was every bit as entertaining as any men's event with the same great golf

I guess The Masters just for the overall name recognition, but really, I'll take any of them.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

The Masters, with the US Open in a very close second.

For me, it's the US Open. Even if it's the long shot of all long shots, the qualifying process captures the imagination of an old hack like me.

Watching The Greatest Game Ever Played really fired me up.

I picked Masters but the British Open is a close second. Especially if the tournament was being held in Scotland. Winning the Open Championship at the "home of golf" would be grrrreat.

The US Open would be awesome as well, knowing you've won in some of the toughest conditions.

PGA Championship? Meh.

Of the three I care to watch,  Masters, US Open, and The Open, I suppose I would rank The Open as the most prestigious of the three. I love reading about golf history, and that major is loaded with it. The Masters would be a very, very close second. If I were to win the USO, I would have to attribute that win to being good, and lucky that week, since it is set up pretty hard most times. .

The PGAC is just another WGC event to my way of thinking.

Two quick points: - The Masters is the youngest major. It's "history" is the shortest. - The PGA has, by far, the strongest field each year. The PGA is routinely pooped on but its reputation seems undeserved. They've done a particularly good job lately. Consider last year: you could easily make the case that it was the best and most exciting major.

I picked The Open.  I love the history and the tradition.  To win on the Old Course would be unbelievable.

I agree with Erik's points, but still picked The Masters. I love the look of it, the course, the drama through the years, the television coverage. It is my favorite.

The Open Championship is the oldest, the US Open is our national championship, and the PGA has a strong field. The PGA was exciting this year, and has improved over the last few years. I like them all for different reasons, and each has its own look and feel, but The Masters is just my favorite.

    • More actual thoughts on the articles: Oh boy. I taught 5SK, and before that, I was S&T certified. Those experiences, for many good instructors, are additive. They're not "all" that they are. If I were to go through Scott Cowx's certification, or Dr. Kwon's, or James Ridyard's, or whomever's… I wouldn't be a "method" teacher any more than I am now. I'd be adding tools to the toolbox. He says there are "system" teachers, "non-system" teachers, and method teachers. Which one am I? A "non-system teacher"? So, I don't have any systems or structure? Or am I a "system" teacher with a bunch of branches and if/then/else statements? I don't know. The physics thing as it relates to S&T… yeah, that's already been discussed. Huh? Brendan, sorry, that part is bogus AF. Of course the arms go "around" somewhat. It's back, up, and in. Down, out, and forward. Plus, again, "energy can either be created or destroyed" isn't even right, as many of you have said. It's "neither" and it can be transformed, too. Plus, as others noted, that's typically a closed system: in our bodies we transform sugars and other things to create movement, energy. I'm going to move off this before I get totally annoyed… "These are the pontifications of a method" — no, the specific example he cited is the way everyone who has ever played good golf moves their hands - back, up, and in. The clubhead moves that way, too. I've seen this happen. This part might be the most accurate part of the article (it's no longer clear whether he's talking about this fellow or just talking in general here.) "Now here’s the sinister thing: The overwhelming information is by design." — If the instructor is as incompetent as he says, he's likely not doing any of this "by design." He doesn't sound bright enough to do so. WTF does that have to do with anything? Probably happens to some extent sometimes, but is that the instructor's fault? Or the student for not recognizing it? Also, again, this instructor doesn't seem to be bright (not that this article even really talks about the instructor anymore), so… I doubt he's doing all of this intentionally. People are found out eventually. I'm at a point where I get a lot of referrals from people who have noticed their friends playing better golf, and ask. Or people want to brag about their improvements, and that sells their friends. "As a result, these players couldn’t play golf." — Huh? I think he just observed when he was there. Not that he went out of his way to watch. 😄 
    • I am dying..🤣 Can one of yall come and pick me up from the floor? 
    • If you can’t, attack it. That’s the new age ideology. 
    • Is it possible that he writer is full of shit himself? "After months of listening and watching...". Yeah right, cuz that's so normal for writers do that just to get a single article out of the massive endeavor. I mean unless you are angling for a Rant-Pulitzer (Yup, it is a thing.. like, totally).
