This week's Thrash Talk focuses on a few golfers that have been missing in action in the past year or so. They have showed up to play golf, but they haven't played it worth a darn. I don't want to give anything away, but I want to ask the same question here.

Which household names have really struggled to find their games in the past year or so?

That will get things started, but be sure to check out the full article tomorrow morning.

Hi

im concerned about David Duval-he's missed all of the Florida Swing so far but started the season well..is he injured?..he needs to get it together pretty soon or he'll fall too far behind!

John Daly..he's doing fairly well this season but needs a few more finishes.

I want to see Phil Mick do better this season..ive noticed a pattern with him..when Tiger is playing he doesn't play so well?

Davis Love is someone else who needs to play better and to his potential this season.

Darren Clarke has made a dreadful start to the season and needs to get some form and consistency together.

Maybe not a household name for some but whatever happened to Chris Riley?

Last I heard he was still recovering from that exhausting Ryder Cup.

Couples' back is acting up again, and it has not been determined whether or not he will compete in the Masters next week.

How about Ryan Moore and Justin lenorad? Lenorad had a great start this past weekend but he seems to be in a different state the last two or so years.

Ryan Moore had the wrist thing last year but don't really hear much about him any more.

Ryan Moore finished in the top 10 at Bay Hill I believe. I can't believe if that was the tournament or not, but it was somewhere on the Florida Swing. Other than that, however, he has been pretty quiet since late last summer.

Moore has way too much talent to be underachieving right now. Hopefully he will start to pick it up a little.

Justin Leonard started off well last week, but he faltered on the weekend. At least he made a cut and finished in the top 40 though. That's a positive sign if nothing else.

Moore has a T8 at PODS; has missed the cut in 5 of 8 tournaments in '07.

http://www.pgatour.com/players/02/65/96/results/ He currently stands 83rd on the money list.

I agree...he is a local guy for me and graduated from UNLV, so I was watching his career closely then all of a sudden he had the wrist thing LY and then fell off the radar.

I hope he gets things going again.

    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
