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.

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

      By iacas · Posted

      Yeah, let's just ignore that there were only 5-10 great players back then… 🤣 Ha ha ha. Whatever you guys have to tell yourselves… Tiger won MAJORS 22 years apart. That's a long time. He wasn't missing the top ten on the money list because he sucked, it's because he didn't play due to injuries.

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

      By Golfnutgalen · Posted

      Pretty accurate.  Another way you can look at it is how many years was Jack top 10 on the money list. It used to be the list that mattered, nothing else came close. Jack was top 10 from 1962-1978 and then once more in 1983 making 18 years total. He had another 4 inside the top 20. He was #1 8 times.  Tiger was top 10 from 1997-2009, 2012-2013, and 2018 which is 16 times total. His next best were 24th and 38th in 2019-2020. He was #1 10 times.  Honestly, they're both pretty long but Jack has quite a few more seasons in the upper ranks. Makes sense when Tiger barely played in 2010-2011 and then again from 2015-2017, and pretty much 2020 onwards. That's not an excuse for Tiger though.

      2026 TST Birdie Challenge

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Played three and a half rounds in England last week. I will not be playing more than maybe 4 rounds on any one course. Probably only about 20 rounds all year and between 4 and 8 of those will be alternate shot, so don't really count. Off to a pretty good start though. Three and a half rounds gave me 5 birdies and an eagle (with two of those birdies being on the same hole number).

      2026 TST Birdie Challenge

      By bkuehn1952 · Posted

      First round of 2026. No birdies and a very pedestrian 86. Maybe I should have hit a few balls over the past 100 days. Next year!
