Best dressed player on tour?

Obviously hindsight is 20/20 but did Freddy make the right call by picking Tiger?

I think he did.  He's been on a lot of these teams, won 14 majors and told Freddy he was healthy.  Got a history of "rising" to the occasion.  It wasn't an easy call between Tiger and Keegan Bradely.  Keegan would have been a rookie and I think you have to go with the experience Tiger has under his belt.

Fred made the right call - he has a point. How do you not call up the best player evah' next to Jack?

Especially if he says he'll be ready ---  You call him.

And after Stricker talked with Tiger about his putting, they began falling a day or two later... and Freddie's decision  looks even more brilliant.

How does the "global crisis" keep people from watching golf on TV?  And in the face of the global difficulties, when Tiger plays ratings go up and attendance at tournaments goes up.  People poured out to watch Tiger play at the Fry.com event.

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
