Wow ... can Phil possibly mess up yet another chance to take the No. 1 spot over? I think he'll eventually get it but he'll basically have backup up into the slot. I'm very disappointed in what I've seen from Phil the past couple weeks.

**edit** Phil gave back 4 addit'l strokes in the half hour after I sent this email!

Yea it will prove to everyone just how big a deal the no 1 slot is. He acts as if its of no concern, but he knows its in his grasps and it is affecting his play. IMO

It's a sad day when the world ranked #1 and #2 holders both are at 7 over par.

Anyone see Furyk's approach shot with a wedge over the water that hit and came all the way back into the lake? On the replay it looked like it hit the plastic part of the inside of the cup, but maybe possibly the base of the flag. He got absolutely screwed.

I saw that too. I doubt I would've acted as calmly. I wonder if he knows how to cuss out loud w/o moving his lips.

That was bad luck for Furyk for sure. Phil still doesnt seem to want to be number 1. We might need a thread of "What if Phil never gets his game back"

O'Hair and Mahan are just throwing darts. Their ballstriking is just ridiculous right now.

A couple of years ago, Tiger shoots a seventy five and it's a trip to Vegas, blow a cool Mill with "The Brothers", some porn star sex, then back home with the wife and missus (and the dog). Livin' large!
Can you imagine Tiger's world now? All alone on his private jet, flying back to an empty mansion, hounded by sleazy media, life and career in tatters.
Tiger is finished.

I can understand disliking them, but finding it hard to cheer for him? That seems a

little superficial...

True, but when you don't know the players it's little things that make you decide who to cheer for.

    • Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light. 
    • Day 117 12-7 A bit of chipping practice today. Full swing- hit some real balls to see where Im at. 
    • Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.
    • I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.
    • Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
