You don't see that every week.

I will judge my rounds much more by the quality of my best shots than the acceptability of my worse ones.

Those are some awesome shots. He's only the second person (after John Wooden) that I've heard of making both in a single round.


Edit: And, right after I submit this, Rickie Fowler makes an ace on #5 to take the lead. Too bad he only has one chance left today to repeat Thompson's feat.

This is great for Thompson. His average is 71.2. . . i am glad this has happened to him. Can anyone help he find a video of these two shots? I have looked around but cant find any. I don't mind if they are highlight reels either . . ..

It doesn't look like it's been posted to YouTube yet, but it will be within 48 hours, given the timeframe for highlight reels from the TOUR itself. You could subscribe to PGATour on YouTube to see it. Regardless of whether you subscribe or not, when I see it pop up on my subscriptions, I'll post it here.

----- Meaningless statistic of this tournament of the moment: if Rickie Fowler birdies 16 or 17 on his way in today, his best ball for the tournament will be 18 under.

Looks like I was wrong above. The video was posted, but somehow doesn't contain anything more than a mention of Thompson's double eagle. The ace is shown, however.

      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.

      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?
