One of these things is not like the others. I'd love Ernie to make a few putts for a change and give himself a chance.

I would like one of these three: 1. Luke Donald 2. Bubba Watson 3. Rickie Fowler (if he's in the field) Of the 3, I think Donald is the one that makes the most sense to me.

I was going to say Schwartzel might be worth a look again, as he's unusually good at grinding out pars on tough tracks. But he blew big time at Wentworth. We'll see. Don't think Donald has the

I did, however, place some outside money on Sergio Garcia and Adam Scott (70/1) due the to the the caddy change (!)

I put some $$ on Scott to win too, although I only got 50/1, gah!

I saw him at 50/1, but when I went to my local bookies to place the bet, it came back 70/1

World Number 1 Luke Donald has just birdied his first 3 holes and is winning. He is at -72 pace if he keeps this up

Edit: Never mind. Got some wrong information about his 3rd hole

Why not? Bubba's proven now that he can close the deal and win on the PGA Tour. I think he's definitely a major threat to win this week, or any week now on Tour. With how long he hits it and how good of a putter he is, there's no reason why he can't win a major...





Sure he could, I just didn't think he [i]would[/i]. There's a lot of hungry players, so consistency is key if you're going to lead all of them on a hard course for four day. As evidence, the leaderboard is mostly topped right now with consistent players and Phil and Bubba are teeing off in the wee hours on Sunday. But yes, Bubba has as good chance at a major in the next couple years.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
