Some of the fastest:

John Daly, Chris Riley, Dustin Johnson, Mark Calcavecchia, Pat Perez and Brett Quigley

I would guess Tom Watson is in there.

My guesses for slowest:

Jim Fuyrk, ugh brain cramp. There's alot of them, I can't think of any now. The ones that make me check what else is on the DVR or change the channel or surf the web.

Bubba Watson is a slow player, he stand there swinging the club forever. Looks like he's going to step up, but then doesn't afterall.

Taking your time to plan a shot is fine, up to certain limits, but once you got the right club and know where to aim, just go ahead and hit the damn ball.

How can know one have named JB Holmes as one of the slowest? He has the most annoying and time consuming pre-shot routine out there.

Irons: Cobra AMP 4-GW

Wedges: Callaway Forged Copper 56* and 60*

Harrington's definitely slow...been put on the clock plenty of times. The announcers of last week's tournament made a point of saying this, but other guys still love him as a partner because of the easy-going attitude. Not sure I could finish a round with Furyk or Crane.

Imagine walking 18 with Furyk and Holmes. Even watching them play as a spectator.

Anyone know what the average time is used on the PGA tour for 18 holes with two in each flight?

Some of the fastest:

It's an unusual stat. Unlike being put on the clock, where shorter hitters are at a disadvantage, it seems like the first to hit isn't even tracked. Wouldn't Chris Riley always be hitting first? OR do they mean the first player on the tee (rather than the fairway) is not timed?

I think the average round for two is 4 hours. I remember last year a single went off first and got around in an hour and 45 minutes and shot a 67. I can't remember who it was but that is quick.

Angel Cabrera without a doubt one of the fastest, he decides what he's gonna do, steps up and almost straight away the ball is in the air

      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

      By saevel25 · Posted

      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?
