If Stenson really has found his way back from his high 70s to 80 scores then I think he will win it. I only saw the last couples of holes but his 275 yard shot to the 18th green that landed 2 yards from the flag was insane.

Kaymer recovered well today are a poor start. Dustin Johnson doing only very average also. Big mistake by Kaymer to try and change his swing earlier on this year.

Yeah, why did Kaymer change his swing? Can't understand why you would change your swing when you have  a winning concept... Any ideas?

Apparently, he wants to be able to hit a draw off the tee. We'll have to wait and see if it was a good idea.

Looking at his swing before and after, he's definitely trying to get more inside on the takeaway and downswing.

The younger Americans seem to be coming over to Europe more these days. Bubba Watson is playing the French Open next week, for example.

I'm done with Sergio. He treats me like a rag doll.

Then three putts to lose it all. What a shocker.

Good to see him contend again, though. And that finish gets him into the Open -- so a pretty good week nonetheless.

Very disappointed Sergio could not pull out the win. Great to see him playing well again. I just want to see him win a tournament relatively soon!

Maybe the Open Championship?!

I can dream, can't I?

      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."
