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.

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.

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.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 10: 2/16/2025 Just like yesterday I spent several 5-10 minute sessions working on what I learned on Friday.  My new priority pieces.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 26 (16 Feb 25) - Basically a repeat of yesterday- only it was a bit more expanded chips/pitches - 7i, 9i, 50° and 58°.   Big exception was I was hitting groups of 5 one club at a time.  Focused on a specific target point - and coming smoothly through the ball, not punchy.  Got it right about 3 out of 5 - more work needed.

      My Swing (TN94z)

      You probably haven't turned much and instead have just pulled your left arm across your chest.

      Things didn’t work out with the cutting horse barn my wife was working for there in Virginia. Their Texas facility we were supposed to move down to ended up delayed for at least an extra year after they’d had us leave Virginia to meet them down there “shortly”. So we ended up getting some land by her family in Missouri and building a house of our own down here instead. Not as many courses, but there is one 5 minutes from the house that’s only $62/mo for both of us to be members at and other nicer ones within a reasonable drive as well.    @Rick_D I’ll try to remember to let you know when I’m heading up that direction. It may happen more frequently in the coming year since a dealer for a business I started recently is based out of St Charles so making deliveries myself might be more economical than shipping.

      My Swing (TN94z)

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t know why my swing got so vertical there. That wasn’t normal.    What did you mean by point 3? I get the hip turn portion.
