Rory all the way! Phil has some kind of mental block that keeps him from finishing a tournament the way he starts. If he would settle down a bit and play golf instead of worrying about how far he hits his clubs, then he would probably win some tournaments.

Rory, no question. Every time Phil tees it up, it is a train wreck waiting to happen.

Well, it usually starts as a train wreck, and it used to end with an awesome shot of some kind, recently, it hasn't

I hate to say it, but you wonder if Phil has much left in the tank.He's 40 years of age now, has that troublesome arthritis and with his family's ongoing health problems, is it all taking it's toll?I hope not, but his form has been patchy for his entire career and that's certainly not going to improve now.That said, I woudn't be surprised if he wins the Masters again next year.

I said it before and I'll say it again if you can bet Rory each way in every tournament do it. I have been and I'm way ahead. basically your $200 bet gets split and you have 100 on him to win at say 28:1 and you have a $100 on him to come in top 5 at 14:1 or whatever the odds are.
Thanks for the reminder too. I just went and put some money down on the rorster quick. and a few others in case he decides not to show up. I think he may take this one down though.

Rory over phil any day for now on... Take away both their victories this season

(Take away Phil's Masters Win)
(Take away RORS QH win)

Rory much better season as he was pretty close at the British and PGA... good showing at the masters and some high finishes in other tourneys.

    • Are these course getting easier? are the players getting better? should we not worry about tournaments that used to produce single digit winners are now producing course records year after year.  I am not talking roll back I am just curious why scores are so much lower than five to ten years ago. 
    • I've posted plenty of positive things about Tiger over the years. I just like to play fair.  But if you want to see me praise TW some more here you go: 12 wins by 7 shots or more - Jack had 4 3 separate win streaks of 5 or more in a row - Jack won 3 in a row once It took Jack 172 more events and 9 extra years to reach Tiger's 71 wins by 2009 TW is the only player since 1900 to win a major by double digits and he did it twice 30% peak win rate is even higher than the previous record holder Ben Hogan (25%) 11 time PGA Tour Player of the year - Jack had 5 12 times lead the Tour in wins - Jack 6 10 times money list leader - Jack 8 Jack officially has 73 wins, but 2 of them are team wins with Arnie. You could argue he should be listed with 71 and I wouldn't disagree. 
    • I mean that's clearly an opinion.  The funny thing is I never even attacked Tiger, I just pointed out that the other poster had a point when he mentioned that Jack had a longer career. Tiger basically had 5 years when he could have been winning more tournaments if not for his injuries. 2010-2011 and then again 2015-2017. Hard to make the argument after his final win because not many players win a ton after age 43.  If those numbers support the fact that Jack had a longer career so be it. Don't take that as an affront to Tiger. 
    • Just getting back into golf after a 30 year break from the game. Hoping to get some advice and insight on becoming a decent player.    Right now I'd be hard pressed to break 95
    • Even injured Tiger had a more impressive career than Jack against much stiffer competition. This was confirmed by Jack quite a few times. You want to ignore that, but it’s fact.
