Due to Tiger's return, this will probably be the most watched non-major this year. I hope he does well, but I don't think he's going to win. With Tiger and Darren Clarke paired together, theirs will definitely be under the spotlight, and will be very interesting to follow.

I would love to see Rory and Tiger battle it out on Sunday, but I think it will be Rory and Rickie in the final pairing, with Rory winning his first WGC.

I don't really know why, but I wold be surprised if Rory won. I'll take Tiger, Fowler, and Jason Day to contend, with Hunter Mahan winning.

With Tiger in the field im guessing Phil will step it up a bit and win this event.

I think Rory will try to step it back up since Tiger's around. Plus the weather should be better than his last two European tournaments.

I'll go with Dustin Johnson to win with Tiger in top 20 with Phil below top 20.

I like Hunter Mahan (and not just because my company is one of his sponsors ). Can't see Tiger contending but I will certainly hope for it!

I'll be surprised if Tiger finishes Top 15.  According to reports, he's been hurt and not playing so I don't think his short game will be where it needs to be.  I think Tigers return will motivate others, like Phil and Rory to step their games up.

What?

It means he hasn't won in a while and I expect him to win soon. Like this week, for example. What was confusing about that?

saying somebody is "due" something is like saying somebody "deserves" something, when in reality neither really means anything. sorry, just one of my pet peeves, forget about it. god, i sound like shorty.

I think Tiger will play okay.  It is a good field, so I doubt he will contend but will have a decent showing.  Some good, some bad, ultimately I believe he will be around 15th.  I like Jason Day to win, he has been in contention enough that some of the nerves should be gone or at least fading.

The top five finishers this week:

  1. Jason Day
  2. Matt Kuchar
  3. Luke Donald
  4. Edoardo Molinari
  5. Gary Woodland

Westwood and Kaymer both finish on the back end of the top ten. McIlroy finishes in the top 15, Mickelson in the top 25, Woods around mid-pack. Harrison Frazar brings up the rear.

I could see Woodland or DJ winning this one but I haven't been right all year. I will be interested to see what Tiger and Phil put together I've said all along Phil needs Tiger for some reason. Phil has never been on Tigers level but Phil has played some of his best golf because of Tiger. I would love to see Phil and Tiger both have a solid tourney but I just don't see it happening.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
