Just starting a thread on this since the tournament will start in an hour or so.

Els the favorite to win but hard not to pick Mahan with such a good track record in the recent past over here.

No clue - if he's not I'm sure I'll find some other guy to rally behind.

apparently he's not. he was on my fantasy team but now there's a big NE under his name. i guess he pulled out.

The field's probably a bit weaker in Hartford than in years past. Fewer players were likely willing to make the cross-country trip from Monterey than, say, a hop over Long Island Sound from Bethpage.

Els is playing in Munich at the BMW guys. He shot 70 yesterday.

Justin Rose is swinging so good now and the putter is working well, hopefully close to his 2007 form again. Very talented player on his day.

I cant wait to get home and see Fowler hole out on #2. His score card shows an eagle but I didnt get to watch it.

Talk about one extreme to the other.Very tough conditions last week for the U.S. Open and this week is a piece of cake, target golf!
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.

    • God I hate when golf can’t give me n+1 day of success. Drives me up the wall when my body is, FU! Im like, ok let’s check the vid. Yep too much turn, arms getting behind me. Ok, I work on that. Get the feel back for a shorter swing. Confirm with video. Then going back to arms down stuff.  Arms down, nope it’s hands out towards the ball. Oh, you get arms down better. Guess what, you don’t get to rotate and you hit 6 inches behind the ball. Yay!  Maybe I should have walked off the range and not wasted my time. I wish there was a body alert system when it’s going to a SOB for the day. 😭 OK rant over, I’ll be back at this tomorrow.

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
