Yeah, everyone's over it. Even Tiger.

There are quite a lot of big names right at the bottom of the leaderboard after the first day at Bay Hill. Must have been tough out there.

I hope to see a peek of Graeme McDowell today if for anything just to see how much effort he'll put into merely trying to make the cut.  Allenby shot a 79 on Day 1 but put in a nice effort today (69) tho that may not be enough.

if tiger can have another day like friday, he will def be in contention for a win. I would say he needs -5 and will be within 3-4 shots of the lead. then on sunday, he will be going for every green no matter what.

Even if that happens, he would need help like he got from Sean O'Hair in '09.

IMO, Tiger needs to post at least a 65 today to have any chance

Tiger's out of it.

3-4 players getting some shots lead on the followers. Someone in the top two pairings tomorrow will win it.

Got the chance to go to Bay Hill on Thursday... what a freaking beautiful course, the 18th is a great hole. My prediction is BUBBA will wield the sword.  With Levin imploding today and Tiger out of the question with his spotty consistency, I think it clears a path for Bubba to make a strong run.  Steve Marino started playing like a champ and I do want to see Ricky win given his strong relationship with Arnie (and to get that first win..) BTW side note.. Gary Woodland could possibly be one of the longest iron players I've ever seen, absolute crazy. Lets hope this prediction is better than my POS bracket.

Isn't it though? I went yesterday and texted my wife that for my birthday, I want a round on that course! I got to see both Bubba & Tiger eagle #6 but Tiger was way too inconsistant. I'd really like to see Bubba take it.

    • This is a loooooong winded narrative so if you don't like long stories, move on. 😉 Our senior club typically gets about 25 new members each year. We lose about 25 members each year for various reasons (moved to FL/AZ, disabled, dead, too expensive). Of the new members, usually 20 have an active GHIN handicap. About 5 each year do not have a GHIN handicap. When they join our club, we give each member a state association membership that includes GHIN handicapping services. We play a series of handicapped tournaments over the summer. When we sign up a new member who does not have a GHIN handicap, we attempt to give them an estimated index until they have sufficient scores posted to have an actual GHIN index.  Our first event typically is around May 15 so, in theory, a new member has about 6 weeks to post a few scores. Posting season in the Mitten starts April 1. Inevitably, several of the unhandicapped individuals seem  to either not play until the first tournament or can't figure out how to enter scores (hey, they are seniors). That situation then leads to my contacting the new member and asking a series of questions: a. Did you ever have a GHIN handicap? If yes, which State and do you recall what it was? b. Do you have an alternate handicap through a non-GHIN handicap service or a league? c. What do you think your average score was last year (for 9 or 18) d. What was your best score last year? Where did you play and which tee was used? e. What do you consider a very good score for yourself? Based on their responses I attempt to give them an index that makes them competitive in the first couple events BUT does not allow them to win their flight in the first couple events. We don't want the new members to finish last and at the same time, we don't want someone with a "20" playing handicap to win the third flight with a net 57. In the event some new member did shoot a net 57, we also advise everyone that we can and will adjust handicaps retroactively when it is clear to us that a member's handicap does not accurately reflect their potential. We don't like to adjust things retroactively and in the 8 years I have chaired the Handicap Committee, we have only done it once. So here are the questions to the mob: Any ideas how to do this better? Any questions one might ask an unhandicapped individual to better estimate their index/handicap? Would it be reasonable to have a new player play once (or more?) without being eligible to place in the money?
