Hush now. He made his bet. I'm gonna be $100 richer!

I will be shopping for another wedge or hybrid/5 wood about next year this time with iacas's donation.

I might like your chances if the bet was on Tiger winning a major in 2011, but any PGA sanctioned event? I'd think the Vegas odds are against you on this bet. It's pretty obvious he's working on his swing right now, and by next year he should have it engrained in the muscle memory.

So does every other tour player.

Good for DJ to win after everything.

This guy has been so consistently good this summer. Hope he does well and takes home the 10 mil!

How about a hundred bucks instead? I don't think you're likely to come to Erie and I'm not likely to go to DC any time soon.

Sounds good to me. Game On~

missed the final round and was surprised to see DJ had won! Good on him. It's overdue. After the Us Open and PGA champ, DJ had a win coming. I foresee a great career for him moving forward.

my father attended Sat and Sun rounds..followed Phil and Tiger yesterday and basically told me "Tiger is back, other then his putting woes, he is hitting the ball great". He said it was sad that only a few hundred people followed the leaders, and it was thousands following Tiger/Phil.

he also said the "love" for Tiger is back. he said you could feel it in the crowd..everyone wanting to see him to really good, to be the Tiger of old.

yea Tiger usually has a huge following compared to others but when its both Tiger and Phil in the same group battleing it out, that increases the following alot. Doesnt happen to often that they are paired together. If I was there on Sat I would of followed Tiger for awhile and got some other views of golfers where I could get alot closer

Why would he say that? He was one of the sheep as well.

I would have followed Phil and Tiger too. Nothing against DJ, but that's a historical pairing and Phil is my favorite golfer.

Would you also say it's sad nobody was following the final group? Old guy sounds like a hypocrite.

    • 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.       
    • 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?
