I cannot believe that Adam Scott was picked for the team. He has done zip all year and Sergio who has been playing better this last month was left off.

Sergio is from Spain which is in Europe. That makes him eligible for the European Ryder Cup team and not eligible for the Rest of the World Presidents Cup team.

Although I agree that Adam Scott shouldn't have been picked because he's been awful this year and I doubt he can magically learn how to putt before the Presidents Cup roles around.

OHHHHH, sorry blond moment, I had Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup mixed up. You are indeed right Sergio is ineligible to play at this tournament. As for Adam Scott, maybe this chance given to him by Norman will get his game back on track.

Being new to the golf world I didn't know about either of these cups. After researching it sounds like the 1999 Ryder Cup was an amazing thing to experience. I wonder if anything like that will happen again in either cup, it sounds like the President's Cup at least is not all that popular.

If I can make the time I might head up from San Diego and spend a night. My brother has invited me to attend it with him, he'd pick me up at the airport and take me straight there if need be ..... -> He's played the course and would be able to give me lots of good insights.

He'd be returning my invite to him to the Buick here in SD a couple years ago. We had a great time. I'm sure we would again, what's not to like?

It's a mess, Harding as you know is in a residential area of SF, hardly any parking to begin with. Luckily my friend lives walking distance to the course so I'm thinking telling her to throw a bbq and pre-round party before we head over.

I'm going Friday & Saturday. Just got my ticets in the mail a few days ago... very excited!

Parking will be tough. They are selling advanced parking passes on Ticketmaster... I think they are using lots on SFSU and the SF Zoo. The parking is pricy (like $25 after all the Ticketmaster fees), but I think the only other legit option is using public transit. They've arranged shuttles from BART and MUNI. I wouldn't rely on finding any day-of parking anywhere close to Harding.

My tickets came with a brochure on the setup and layout... they've done some fun stuff to the course. The 9 hole executive course has been turned into the practice area for the pros. And they've changed the back 9 holes around... the scenic par-4 18th is now 15 or 16, and they've changed one of the front 9 par 5's into a 4. They're setting it up for some major scoring for these guys... should be exciting.

I'm going on Saturday. From what I know they are using SF State for parking, I think it was $20 on ticketmaster, my cousin purchased one. Get there as early as possible if you want a space, otherwise you could be walking from 19th and Judah.

I can't wait, this will be my first pro event. Looking forward to seeing some of the best in the world live.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By iacas · Posted

      Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.

      No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By saevel25 · Posted

      So, Brendan Sorsby, Texas Tech transfer QB, was found guilty of sports betting by the NCAA. He admitted to it. He placed thousands of bets over multiple years while at Indiana and Cincinnati. This included betting on his own teams.  The NCAA rules ban athletes from betting on any sport (college or pro).  A retired visiting judge from Tarrant County, Texas has put an injunction on the NCAA ruling. He is a visiting judge because the first judge was a graduate and big fan of Texas Tech, and he recused himself. The judged ruled the following... "Under Curry's order, Sorsby is permitted to play for Texas Tech's 2026 season on the condition that he continues his treatment for a gambling and anxiety disorder and serves a two-game suspension (missing games against Abilene Christian and Oregon State)."  Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care for the NCAA. That still doesn't mean that a college can choose when or where to say, "Yea we agree to these rules for all our sports, well except in this case." Here is a breakdown from S&W. The Hidden Weapon in Sorsby’s Injunction: How a Lubbock County Court Order Quietly Neutralized the NCAA’s Most Powerful Enforcement Tool - Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer By Ryan J. Regula On June 8, 2026, Lubbock County District Court Judge Ken Curry issued a temporary injunction in Brendan Sorsby v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Cause No. DC-2026-CV-0791 (99th Judicial District... The main judgement made sense. Sorsby, I am going to have all this harm done to me if I don't get to play. The Judge, I agree. The penalty for gambling is too harsh, so here are all these things you must do, and I will grant this injunction against the NCAA. Basically, an analogy would be when a person goes into court for a DUI and they agree to all these other things to not end up in jail.  What sucks for the NCAA is the NCAA has appealed to Texas’ Seventh Court of Appeals, based in Amarillo. All four justices that preside over the court are graduates of Texas Tech University School of Law. It would be hilarious if all four of them had to recuse themselves 🤣. For those who like to read legal rulings...
