I thought it was funny how they aired an interview with Greg Norman criticizing Tiger's swing, at the same time Tiger was leading the tournament.

He's currently -5 for his second round. -9 for the tournament. Starting to look like Tiger of old. Hope he keeps it up.

I've played it a few times, but not since the rebuild.

Everyone is really happy with what Mike Clayton has done with it.

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

No - what you would have heard was that his wife slapped a cameraman. All class, those Dalys.

So my picks for this one, in no particular order:

The Aussie with the cold sore,

The Aussie with the racist caddie,

Bubba,

OR

The American who is 9 under after 36 holes

I think Tiger has found his groove, at least for now. Kind of rooting for the guy to pull it off.

Great to see Tiger back on top of the leaderboard, I really hope he will fix his life and mind, and then his game will follow!

I went to the morning and early afternoon session on Thursday. Freddy was on fire. Played some great holes of what I saw. Signature eagle by Bubba on the 8th, well worth the wait at the back of the green for 30 mins.

Its a very demanding course from tee to green, then they just crank up the toughness with the most undulating greens I have ever seen. You definitely do want to be up on the waste land full of foot prints made by the gallery. Then mother nature has her say and blows a gale. I would not like to be out there in those conditions on that course. Give me a 6.00am tee time and play 18 in 2 hours before the wind arrives. Golf is tough enough. Tiger has played 2 impressive rounds. Problem is, he is likely to get the worse of the conditions, but he is playing a very controlled and well thought out tournament to this point. The next 2 days are going to be awesome, a tournament here that Im actually going to make an effort to watch here at home.

I drove by this course in my visit to Sydney in July.  It is right next to the highway and the airport is very close too.  My question to the local folks is, "is the traffic and airport noise very noticeable on the course?"  I can't hear it during the broadcast.

BTW, Sydney is an awesome city, as is the whole area.  If you have a chance to visit, GO!

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
