After Keegan Bradley's first-round 65 put him in the lead after day one, my old high school golf coach (Keegan graduated from the same high school as me, albeit 7 years earlier) sent out an email, he's going crazy. The Byron Nelson, the PGA, the Grand Slam, and now the HSBC? That would be wild.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

It was ridiculous the amount of shots he left out there the first 2 rounds.

He's done sweet f-all since, so the high school golf coach obviously jinxed him

Bradley does seem to play with an intensity that makes him look like he could continue to do well.

He does seem pretty hard on himself - maybe not a bad thing.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

  • At aged 26 years and 313 days becomes the sixth youngest player in European Tour history to record ten official victories. Here are the players that were younger: Seve Ballesteros (22 years and 103 days), Tiger Woods (24 years and 324 days), José Maria Olazábal (25 years and 40 days), Sir Nick Faldo (26 years and 55 days) and Sandy Lyle (26 years and 240 days).
  • Has now recorded multiple victories on The European Tour for the fourth consecutive season. Won two in 2008, two in 2009, four in 2010 and two so far in 2011.
  • Becomes the 28th player on the European Tour to record 10 or more wins. Sergio Garcia was the 27th player when he won his 10th European Tour event at the Andalucia Masters last week.

Americans disappear ... and the Euros march to the top on the last day.

I'd say it's a trend.

I'll post this here since there's no point making another thread about it:

Martin Kaymer will not be joining the PGA Tour in 2012. He told the morning drive on the golf channel this morning apparently.

    • 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.
