When the sun emerges above the English Channel next Sunday morning, it will appear to be shining the brightest over the British Isles, as Britons and Irishmen will constitute the majority of the names

Something going on between Gmac and Paula Creamer? She wished him luck on twitter a while ago. She wished no one else luck

But you do not have to hit green on 1st to make birdy...

Gmac - this is (almost) his backyard & if it's windy, he'll have the advantage.       Poulter is off to a surprisingly good start ... would like to see him do well for a change.

Birdie, birdie, ace, birdie stretch for DJ, and he's put himself on the yellow board. The Americans have a standard-bearer who isn't wearing a hoodie now. Bryden McPherson, this year's Amateur Champion, plays collegiate golf at Georgia; he's playing with Georgia Tech grad Matt Kuchar. That could make for an interesting grouping, especially with Harrington filling out the threesome. McPherson is invited to next year's Masters, and given that Athens is an hour's drive from Augusta, he'll have plenty of opportunities to scout the course.

They both won U.S. Opens in 2010. That's all.

I saw on the Golf Channel they were teamed up in some exhibition tournament recently - she kicked his @ss !!     He spoke very highly of her (game) during the interview

It's like calling the Nissan Open Northen Trust Open the "Los Angeles Open". Nobody has any idea which tournament you're referring to.

So, will there be any kind of online video feed for this tournament on Saturday?  I will be traveling to Vegas at 2AM PST and I'd like to watch it on my phone if possible.

Depending on your cable provider, the ESPN app will have it.

looking at the scorecard - this course has two 240+ yard PAR 3's !!     HOLY SHNIKES ...  the average guy would have to hit a driver or at the very least a hard 3 wood to just make the green on a par 3

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

      By GolfSwami ·

      I am killing brain cells by thinking about this and responding but I looked up the data out of curiosity. Jack was third in True Strokes Gained in 1983 and 1st in the world  in 1984. I would say that qualifies as existence.  Jack did have a big drop off after age 44. But Tiger had a big drop after age 32 with a sporadic handful of good years after that time. Jack was in the McCormack top 10 to age 44. Tiger was ranked like 1400th in the world in his mid 30s. The chart you put up is a chart of nothing. Tiger has more wins. No one is debating that.   There is a big difference between not winning on tour and not making cuts in majors and not winning but finishing second in majors.

      Day 306: played 18 again. Not a good round. Mostly issues with approach shots, but also not great short game.

      Better Shots With 90 Degree Closed Club?

      What you’re describing here is a classic ballstriking drill to promote shaft lean and eliminate flipping.

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

      In addition to what Matt just shared, again I will point out that it is pretty silly to credit a player that built a less impressive career over a longer time span.

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

      By saevel25 ·

      thank you! People think Jack had a long career because he "ATTEMPTED" golf in the 90's. He wasn't a significant player after 1986. I am giving you 1986.  Here is a graph, overlaying the start of Tiger's Career with Jack's. Showing cumulative wins. You can see the curves are identical, yet Tiger has more wins. Even the little bump at the end were Tiger got his last major and last few wins. Very similar to Jack's career. Both Tiger and Jack won about 3 tournaments after year 22 in their careers.  Since this is by years played, their careers length, are identical. If you want to say, "Oh Jack played in the 1990's!" Sure, go ahead. It is more gaslighting on your part if you think that actually means something. Guess what, after 1986, Jack never won again, never had a 2nd place finish ever again. Never cracked the top 100 in money list ever again. Never average under 71 scoring average ever again. Those years statistically MEAN NOTHING to his career.  Again, Tiger's career was not short, it was a LONG career. It matched Jack's in longevity as the graphs shows it. Let's all get off the romanticizing the past argument here and look at the facts.
