Does that mean Rory, Phil, and Dustin were the major meltdown pairing?

This forum wouldn't even exist if people just used google to find all the answers. Sorry to have offended you.

Was hoping Rage Kage (KJ Choi) would come out of the gate a little better.  Hope he makes the cut.

LOL @ Jeebus...I mean Phil Mickelson

To Phil's credit, he does have the most incredible recovery/short game that the PGA has ever seen...

i havent seen those two use the AP2's ever really. Ive always seen them with the MB.

McIlroy is playing the same way he played during the first 3 rounds of the Masters....everything pured straight at the flag.

McIlroy played the harder back 9 in 32. He is now tried for the lead and has had the lead at some stage in each of the last 4 majors. Bit of pointless trivia there

That was just Lefty and Dustin though, Rory stayed well clear of the watery graves

Once Rory gets out of his own head, he'll be really, really good. His iron game is outstanding.

He's playing lights out, but I wonder in which round he will shoot his usual major-80? 2. round at the open, 4. round at the masters, perhaps this time its the 3. round ;)

Ty Tryon, the child prodigy is dead last.

What a weird story he is

      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?

      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.
