I wouldn't want to asnwer that one but Allenby is sure playing smart, composed golf at this point (16th). Remarkable what a new putting stroke can do for a golfer. It's turning into a nice, tight finish.

I was watching the tourney on Saturday night, am I the only one who thought Allenby is a bit of a cry baby on course?

You know what i was thinking the very same,the spectators seemed great there and he was the only one getting annoyed on every tee box and after every shot he took it looked like he was whining.Even after good shots.

The guys over at Golf.com thought he did well not complain after the round considering the endless noise and distractions from the courtesy tents etc on a lot of the holes.Although Ryan Palmer wasn't bothered.All depends how you view it I suppose.

A great shot is when you go for it and pull it off. A smart shot is when you don't have the guts to try it. ~ Phil Mickelson.

I only got to catch about 6 holes. But it seemed he was squawking on 90% of his shots. (yelling at marshalls, individual spectators and wholoe groups of people moving) I am just getting heavy back into golf and really until now only tuned into the majors the last 5 years or so. What I saw 90% of the time with him over that stretch on Saturday. I have seen maybe once or twice a whole round (if that) at a major out of the best players.

Maybe as you said it was venue. (I have actually been to a tourney there and there is a lot of activity going on) But if it was me playing....I could never play well if it bothered me that much. It actually had me rooting against him by the end. Maybe the other part is the Golf Channel coverage is not on par with what you find at a major tournament. (I am sure much smaller budget for a tournament like that) I must be spoiled from major network coverage. BUT I AM NOT COMPLAINING as it is nice to be able to watch it in the first place.

      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?
