I don't think that the Tiger-AK-Rocco group is going to get a lot of TV time. They tee off at 12 ET, but coverage doesn't start until 3 ET. Maybe they'll be on pgatour.com?

It's pretty irritating that coverage doesn't start till 3 :-\ Is there any websites that are streaming certain groups or any coverage at all? I already checked channelsurfers.net and realsportz.net.

Imma incur some flamage, but AK's presence in a field does not pique my interest one iota. Ak is the new Sergio - zzzzzzzzzz.

That was a super fat shot out of the bunker. Looked like he was trying to bend that shaft hitting the ground like that. At least he's being himself.

The ball hit the lip, but what a par!

Leader in at -8. Tiger is 5 back, not bad. Knocking off the rust might take a round or two. GO TIGER!!

Bah, my two peeps are off to a rough start. Duffy and Jeff Hart both finished at 4over today. Duffy is a member at my club so I always root for him. Jeff Hart dominates the Golden State Tour and is an all-around great guy. I think he just turned 50, played and did well in, last year's US Senior Open. I've played with him four or five times, and I kid you not, I've seen him hit one bad shot. One! He doesn't hit the ball very far but played the South Course today, which is supposedly the shorter of the two? Dunno why he turned in such a poor performance today?

From the highlights, he drove the par 5's terribly. Tiger doesn't par the 5's when he wins. But he parred them today.

Tiger stil shooting 3 under and not playing the 5's well is pretty promising.  He won't do that tom.  I expect him  to be 2-3 behind the leaders tom.

He is playing the tougher South Course tomorrow, although they did toughen the North Course by making the fairways very narrow. I saw several dips in his swing when I expected those to be out of there. He took 30 putts besides the 36% driving accuracy.

I just don't expect a cure in a day, or even 3 days, for a victory. Guess I expected less rust. He should have played last week if he wanted to win this week. But there is no winner until Sunday. So we'll see.

Some good numbers put up on the South Course too. I think he'll be okay, but I also told someone he probably needed -5 today to seriously contend.

The dips are irrelevant. I don't care about them, and I think it's telling that's all Nick Faldo could talk about.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By Golfnutgalen · Posted

      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.

      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.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By 5amZ · Posted

      Day 201 3-5 Wider backswing and higher. Practiced consisted of mostly backswing today. Wrist arching through downswing still a focus on full shots with a pause.  Will probably have a 2nd practice tonight blending wider backswing into more of full swing without pause at the top.

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Scooted over to the range today in the rain to see how it goes when I try to hit one. The rehearsals I think look reasonable, but then get worse when I try to hit the ball. I think it’s better than it was but still a ways to go. Including the rehearsals in these two videos. One dtl and one fo. I still don’t understand what I need to do on the way down to stop that fugly shoving outside of the hands. Seems unlikely that will just disappear when I get the backswing position right. I have a feeling that lack of understanding of the next step might be holding me back some.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By Golfnutgalen · Posted

      Of course, injuries suck, but that's no excuse. jack was competitive from 1962-1984 or so. 1979 wasn't very good sure (first winless season) but every other season during that timeline he was in the top 16 in the money list. That is a crazy long time. And notice I didn't even include 1986 because he was "only" 34th in the money list that year and 43rd the year prior.  Like you said yourself Tiger was injured what felt like more often than not post 2009. When he was healthy enough to play a full season he did really well (2012-2013, and 2018-2019).  I like Tiger too but you are seriously downplaying what Nicklaus did. Nicklaus was not normal, he is a crazy outlier just like Tiger.  The funny thing is Jack played a reduced schedule compared to his peers and yet he still played way more than Tiger up to his final win. I got him at 477 excluding amateur starts up to 1986 while Tiger is 364 if we exclude his am starts, 345 up to his last win at the Zozo. Just pointing that out because you said he only played a handful of events in those later years.
