I am also glad Blake is gone. What a friggin hothead. It is he who has everyone so riled up about Andrew. Yeah, Andrew had something to do with it but I think it would have passed but Blake would not let it go. It is so obvious that everyone's obsession about getting Andrew off the show is screwing with their own games. So he is annoying. Get over it. It was poetic justice that he torched Tony on the head-to-head.

Hi Gang,

Been outa town but I'm glad to see that Blake is gone. I'm calling the show up on, on demand so I too can witness his demise. I understand that Andrew's revenge was very interesting and was able to show the guys that he may not be that guy they should be screwing with. How sweet it is. Go Andrew!! Thanks for catching me up.

I'm watching a rerun on TGC and it amazes me how everyone is fist pumping eachother and not Andrew. I don't know but watching these tools act on the show just pisses me off, I'm glad AG ripped Tony a new one last episode.

I hope Gipper gets kicked off next. I wonder what these asshats think about themselves seeing their behavior on television.

Agreed, I would like to know what they do think of how they act...but again we have to remember that this isn't live and the producers can spin certain scenes the way they want to. Hopefully its how the show is produced and not the players themselves. Seems to be a lot of poor sportsmanship, especially considering the game they are playing.

Very interesting how alot of us are pulling for Andrew now, myself included. Yes, Andrew is arrogant, awkward, annoying; but with most of the guys trying to villainize him, he seems pretty genuine in comparison. He is the only one who has maintained composure.

Does anyone know over what time frame the show is filmed 10days 2 weeks???? If its a short time frame I really think its lame how mike and blake are the "jock heads", they act like they played football together for years and their swagger is a joke..............they need a reality check...........they all need to check their egos and realise that they just ok players in the big picture or they would be on a tour....................

Yeah it's two weeks I believe. I mentioned this same thing a few pages back. If these guys are only together two weeks, I find it amazing that they are letting Andrew get to them that much. A lot of people get on my nerves, but I think I can stand anything for two weeks.

I still believe it's due to the immaturity of the players. Quite frankly I would have liked to have seen Sean go further.

For sure, it's definitely because they are immature. There's no reason to act like they're acting, especially over a two week time. Now if they were together for six months or something, I could see there being some tension.

Andrew has clearly shown he is the best, humiliating Tony and gipper in the same episode. So they can supposedly drive a long distance? Well under the pressure Tony clearly cannot hit greens, and gipper cannot even sink an 8 foot putt.

The Finaus are a couple of gimmicks, bottom line. gippers attitude even after losing the putt off was that of a child. He has no place in pro golf.

I agree that they need to check their ego at the door. But you must also remember that most of these players know each other outside of the BB as they probably have played against or with each other growing up and on tour. So there is usually a relationship there before BB even starts.

This year really seems like it is "Big Break - The Whiners". The few who seemed to have a smidgeon of class just didn't have the game, and since then it seems to be a group of immature whiners who clearly do not have the mental toughness to be successful on tour. Hogan used to point out that golf and tournament golf are two completely different sports, and that can really be seen with the BB contestants - they just don't have the fortitude to withstand the competitive pressure.

Sadly, I think Andrew probably has the best chance to win it all, but once his spoiled butt gets a taste of Q school and playing in a tour event he'll see that all his cockiness just won't cut it.

I don't agree. I don't think ego has much to do with the people that are left on the show. Ego is a must to a point or you will have no confidence in yourself. What I'm seeing is a lack of maturity. These guys are acting like a bunch of 12 year olds on the school playground. The one exception I see is Andrew and possibly Kevin who is simply struggling to find his game and confidence so I think he's a little embarrassed.

    • Woof. Not good. 8:40 to 8:50, blah. I know the grip is turned a bit to the left in that part of the video (face is closed a bit), but… no. Not that.
    • Eh. You're tricking yourself. You can still miss right or left, and what you've created is a situation where you HAVE to miss (but the right amount) to make the putt. That's not for me.
    • I can see a point in this.  If you play a straigth 3 footer with a square face aiming at the hole, you can miss both ways, with a close face or an open one. If you aim rigth an close the face at impact (like tiger used to do), physically you can still miss left or rigth but mentally you are only missing left (closed face) and having only 1 miss can give you a boost in confidence. I putt this way on fade putts and aim left and open the face on draw putts, never liked the uncerteinty of putting square to the target.  I apply something like this on approach shots, only use low or high shots and for middle shots I use a low shot with more loft ot a high shot with less loft. This shots are always what they meat low or high, a middle one can go a little towards the high and the low depending on the AoA of each shot making it mentally a little more uncertain what is going to be.  
    • Yeah, I'm not sure if he is genuine or not either but that's not why I'm giving him props.
