Ishikawa

He may not win probable not but he's in the last pairing, wow! To be thinking, he missed the cut last week at a pretty average Japan Tour event. So exciting, everyone in Japan talk about it.

Also KT Kim is -6 in T12, very good too!

Great leaderboard! I like Luke Donald tomorrow.

If Ryo wins, he will be the youngest winner on the PGA Tour since John McDermott in 1911.

Wow, does that count as PGA Tour though because tour did not exist then, technical aly?

Also, he would be only 4th Japan player to win on PGA Tour. (Imada, Maruyama, Aoki).

I think Ishikawa has a decent chance or at least as good as anyone else with the way he is playing.

I wish Phil could step it up a bit..  However,  Firestone's rough and tree line fairways will handcuff Phil something awful..  That is one thing about Firestone South, you need to hit it long and straight.. and straight some more.. It's actually funny at times watching the PGA set up the course when they come to town.. Firestone IF set up to US Open standards, would make it almost impossible for anyone to win with a sub par total.. I personally would LOVE to see a 5 day event using both North and South courses :)

The pro's hate the North course.. It plays harder then the South does.. LOL

It wouldn't count in a professional league with teams, but the PGA Tour seems to have no problem going back and changing history (e.g. what is a major or an official win).

Never in my life have I seen such poor coverage of a #1 golfer that is in the top 5. I know Luke Donald isn't exactly Tiger but they should at least show him more than once every 3 or so holes.

Fowler is looking really good, if he can start getting some of these putts to drop he might be able to get up there with the leaders.  He just barely missed 3 birdie putts in a row.

If he doesn't win soon he'll have to give up the Sunday orange thing. It's getting weird.

Luke is playing? Never would have known. I haven't seen any KT Kim, even through he's tied with McIlroy, who I've seen a lot of.

    • Day 133 (25 Apr 24) - Worked with the Divot Board today added a piece of cardboad behind the ball to help reinforce ball first contact. Contact improved through the round.   Added grandson's football goal posts about 10yds out to add a good start line visual Good session today. 
    • Day 120: 4/25/24 Full Speed Spectrum training session. Low energy today and my speed was lower than normal. Will see what I can do on Saturday.
    • Day 541, April 25, 2024 Ten minutes after lessons. Still not caught up, but should be by tomorrow evening.
    • Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.
    • He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
