I just want DJ to win so we don't have to look at Furyk's disgusting shoes any more.

Plus, I want the ultra self-important and arrogant Zach J. out.

Sorry you guys didn't realize the line about Phil was a joke. If only there were some kind of way I could have indicated that. :tumble:

No offense intended here, but yours is the view of a Tiger apologist.  The fact is that neither Rory nor Luke have ever had such a commanding lead in OWGR that they could take an entire year off and s

3 matches done, 3 wrong picks. This is worse than my typical NCAA bracket.

Wow... Bill Haas lost.  I was wondering how he would perform after winning last week.  It's such a mental grind and I'm sure he is running on 'E'.

True enough. I still thought he might have a chance riding that high.

Tiger's even par through six right, and one down, right?

And now one under and even through seven, yeah?

Well, so much for my runner-up. Poults really needs to start getting it together this year.

Is Zach dressed as Camilo today? It looked that way. [quote name="dustin88thewind" url="/t/55804/2012-accenture-match-play-discussion-thread/54#post_682059"]

[/quote] Yeah, until Hunter won his match I was at 0-for too. At least this tournament is more exciting than the NCAA one.

Slightly off the play-by-play topic, but does anyone besides me question how Gary Player got his name on one of the brackets?  He's a great player, and one of the all-time elites, but he certainly wouldn't fit even into the top-10 match play players.  The Haag would have been a much better choice on a bracket or, for someone still living and playing, Nicklaus.

It's an absolute travesty that one of the brackets isn't named for Hagen. It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham. For those a bit hazy on 1920's golf, Hagen won five out of the six PGA Championships he played from 1921 to 1927, including four in a row, and finished 2nd in the other one. The PGA was match play at the time. The winner of the Accenture Match Play gets the Walter Hagen Cup.

Hhahaha... Are we arguing why they named a bracket?  Gary Player was a solid player.  There are dozens of golfers they could've selected.  Let's not get caught up with that - when the event is superb.  Hat tip to the PGA for coordinating such an event at this level.

John Senden is getting smoked by Simon Dyson.  I've never really seen Dyson play - but he is putting the hurt on Senden.

You might have that back to front.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By iacas · Posted

      Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By iacas · Posted

      No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
