I think that was fun actually. I quite enjoyed it. Now if only we could get the announcers to stay home, and just have the mic guys listen in on every player/caddie conversation... then we'd re

Just read that it is about 100 degree fahrenheit for the whole week. I can't imagine there will be a lot of visitors.

They would have to pay me some money to watch this tournament live in that heat...

100ºF is pretty hot. Wear all white and bring an umbrella. ;-) Another course playing tough. I like it. Not the ususal birdie fest.

A little uphill.  Green has an opening on the front so you can chase one on.  Maybe a headwind today there.  Other players are hitting 3WD too.

Well, my last post (yesterday) about Tiger's game was about how his ball striking is much better than his short game, but he has gone the opposite way today. Erratic driving, but pretty good chips and pitches so far.

And exactly when I posted that, he started striping his drives and blowing his chips and sand shots. I promise to use my powers only for good.

Woods with two nice up and downs from about 90 yards on 14 and 15 and then on 16 sinks a 45-footer for eagle.

I wonder how long he can keep missing fairways and having to get U&D; from 100 yards. Scrambling has saved him so far. Could easily have been five over par.

Scoring doesn't seem to be too awesome today. Any round under par will move you up the boards a fair bit, it looks like.

And these are just the early tee times. It'll only get tougher as the course dries out through the day.

He hasn't missed the fairways by much, but as he said yesterday, there is no graduated rough. If even he has to lay up when he's a couple of yards off the fairway, the rough must be brutal. That said, his chipping session with Sean yesterday apparently went very well, because his short game has been brilliant today.

His short game isn't as bad as mine today.  Go figure.

      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.
