I've watched some, usually the night time replay. Fun stuff. I mean, obviously we're not watching Bayern v. Barcelona here, but it's entertaining. There've been some nice goals (and some totally horrendous ones too).

Alex Morgan is pretty darn cute too. She's pretty easy to root for.

I've got the U.S. as well. That second half was pretty convincing today, they seem to be pretty clutch, and have quite the bench. Japan's no pushover though. FWIW the final is at 2 on sunday (though they usually don't start for another 20-30 minutes), and the Open Championship is scheduled to end at 1:30 (or, coverage is at least).

Finishing this with penalty kicks is like game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals being decided in a shootout. So dumb. They should play 7 on 7 or something until someone scores.

It would be like deciding the Masters (or any major) back at the putting green, giving each player five 5 foot putts.

I was really impressed by the players' skill level. Rapinoe, in particular, has excellent ball control, field vision, and leg strength. She made outstanding passes and moved well on and off the ball.

Bring back the golden goal!!!

Heh. U.S. would have won with golden goal. I know they tried it for a while, but eventually went back to the 330 extra minutes plus penalties if needed.

Sad ending. I'm not sure why you sub out Rapinoe and not use your third sub, but oh well. Heroic run nonetheless. Very league of their own-esque.

    • I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.  
    • Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

    • Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
