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

Not to beat a dead horse, but we've seen McIlroy get off to a start like this twice in the last three majors. He has to prove he can hold himself together for the next three days.

TV did him no justice with some of the up and downs he made. Phil will need a decent round tomorrow to stay close to the leader but I'm guessing a lot of the top guys will come back to the field over the weekend. If anyone is wondering after a few holes I made sure to not stand down the left side when mickelson was teeing off.

His 74 today could easily have been an 84. Not sure if that bodes well or poorly for the last three days...

yeah... that's what really bugs me about phil and the reason i never really root for him. he hits these miraculous shots to get up and down, but he does the stupidest stuff to put himself there in the first place. it's like he's a masochist or something. i wouldn't be surprised if bones were on blood pressure meds the way phil plays. watching phil play is like watching a comedy of errors.

I sincerely hope McIlroy remembers his Haiti trip throughout the tournament as it seems to have made him realise that his game of golf is not a life or death situation and he needs to relax with it.

I was there on Thursday, what a great experience.  One comment on 18- good drive and it's a playable hole.  Miss the fairway and it's next to impossible to hit the green on your next shot.  I saw a ton of layups.  And the flag was in the easiest location on Thursday.  If they move it up and god forbid, tuck it back left, it's going to be a fun weekend.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 2, 12/31/25.  Similar to yesterday (rainy, no surprise), I hit primarily 6-iron full swings with the same focus;  I also hit some chips (about 1/8 swing) with the 54.  About two dozen full swings and an equal number of short shots.  All of this was indoors, off a mat, into a net, real balls.
