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.

      Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
