Watching Rory on 10,11,12 was painful. seems like a nice kid and took it as well as could be asked but damn that was bad. i kept thinking about Van Daveld (that can't be spelled right)...i think this was worse as he still had 6 holes left after the meltdown.

Driver- Callaway Razor somthing or other
3W- Taylor Made R11S
3H Rocketballz
4I-PW- MP-59
Gap- Vokey 54

Lob- Cleveland 60

Putter- Rife

Skycaddie SG5

Jason Day almost had it as well. Congrats to the winner but I really don't even know the guy.  That being said, I think this was a very exciting Masters event!  One of the best I have watched. Some what uneventful, though.

The good news is Jason and Rory can certainly give the old guys the jitters and Tiger is back!

I was rooting for Rory and, being a South African myself, Schwartzel. Watching Rory's collapse was almost too painful to bear. Feel for the guy but there's no question he will have many more chances in his career and it'll go his way.

I felt Tiger played really well and looks back to his former self. however, I am not a fan of Tiger at all and was rooting CHarl all the way.

I honestly feel like CHarl played an absolute brilliant round of golf. He's been very successful on our Sunshine Tour here at home and he's spoken about very highly and is Ernie Els's main protege and great things were always expected of him.

But he played an absolutely sublime final round and totally deserves this victory. So thrilled for the guy. South African golf staking a claim!! :)

Rory's collapse will only make his first Masters win even more special. And I think that will happen before he turns 25.

Not sure the other players "know it" as well as they did a couple of years ago and am pretty certain Tiger doesn't know it as well as he once did.  But he is a talent to be reckoned with for sure and I suspect he'll win his share in the future.

ok, so they may see some vulnerability in tiger, but that front 9 on sunday was just like when he was dominating a few years back. I can for sure see tiger winning some tourney's this year.

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

      By boogielicious · Posted

      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?

      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.
