What are your predictions for this weeks tournament?

Davis is due for another long drought now, isn't he?

I don't really see any reason Lucas Glover can't repeat. He started the season really strong before struggling under the Ryder Cup pressure. Now it's time to get back to the top-10 consistency of the early season. I'm picking Glover for the repeat.

And as always, I'll be cheering on all the young guns. Pretty much all of them are in the field this week. Go Chucky!

Justin Rose is now -10 through 12 holes! Something special might be in the works right now. He has a par five coming up too. Maybe he will make me look good. I said he could move into the top 30 by season's end.

It's still really early in the tournament, but CHIII is tied for second! That's enough to make my Friday go by faster.....as long as he keeps playing well in his second round.

It looks I'll be watching quite a bit of the Funai Classic this weekend.

You said it, though, Cody: it's still early. Chucky ThreeBalls (he was using that for awhile, no?

) still has time to gag. Heh heh heh.

I THINK

really? DO YOU? what gives you that idea

he better keeps that up to win, everybody and their brother are going low at Mickey's place. he's only 3 clear of 2nd after 5 holes in second round, needs to throw in a few more birdies before this one is over.

After the turn towards the back nine (and with CH3 clearly not in the mix for the win), I was actually hoping Justin Rose would win pull it out. He just had no confidence with the putter over the weekend though. He played like a champ the first two days and a chump the last two days. To his credit, he didn't completely fall apart. He hung in there and finished in fourth at least.

It would have been nice to see Troy Matteson win two in a row as well. He has come out of nowhere lately, and who knows, he may be the next young American to step it up! The opening definitely hasn't been filled yet. :/

In the end, I wasn't thrilled to see Joe Durant win, but good for him. He is a ball-striking son of a gun, and he finally got the putter to work for four days.

I dunno, I thought it was sorta cool watching a relatively short hitter like Joe Durant win on a course that measures 7516 yards.

I could deff relate to his distances left into some of the greens.

I guess my life is more boring that Im allowing myself to admit lol

It was a cool tournament to watch on an otherwise boring weekend of sports. There weren't any college football games that caught a lot of my attention on Saturday afternoon, and I could pretty much care less about the NFL. So it was definitely a fun event to watch.

I wish a few of the other chasers would have put up more of a fight late in the round. The actual event was much closer than the final scores indicate. Joe Durant got hot down the stretch and pulled away.

yeah it was good seeing guys who hadnt won in a while come thro 2 weeks in a row.

i was wondering if both he and love would break, but they both held strong.

Agreed wasnt the best even of the year by far, but still some good solid play and drama to be had.

I played those courses last year and theyre pretty nice, for "resort" courses atleast.

That layup area on 13 (par 5) is really narrow and quite harrowing...doesnt really show that on TV.

Loves double on 18 was hard to watch.

      I don't think the viewer at home can pick up on pace of play, unless the announcers mention something. The telecast has the luxury of bouncing from player to player, which ensures we the viewer always have something to watch.  I think we would notice pace of play if the camera just followed one golfer for an entire round. Or  You were actually golfing behind the slow group Or  The slow group is the last to only group left to finish the tournament.  I like the idea of having a person carrying a digital clock, following each golfer. When the golfer gets to the ball and the group in front of them has cleared they have 60 seconds or they get a penalty stroke. Maybe a second violation is a 2 stroke penalty.  Or as I have said before, every golfer wears a shock collar!!!!! at 1 min 1 second that golfer if going to drop. It will take them a good 30 second to recover, leaving them with another 30 seconds to hit the shot. The course would be littered with golfers just convulsing on fair way from an endless cycle of shocks because they cant seem to hit their ball and keep pace of play.

      This isn't the same thing.  This is entirely a time of year thing. Not a trend.  This is the COVID year.  There are many who think the Masters viewership was actually way up. The 2024 ratings being down is only for CBS televisions. It doesn't include anyone (including me) who watched it online.

      Ha, I didn't even notice that "NFL competition" part… I just dismissed it on face because pause has very little if any role in TV ratings.

      Wait a second. That is a bit misleading to drag a 4 year old headline about the ratings when the Masters was delayed during the pandemic. The 2024 ratings were down but not to the extent that this headline would imply. Also, @iacas is correct. Any ratings drop has very little, or perhaps, nothing to do with pace of play.
