haha, he has come a long way.  i remember when he presented the green jacket to woosnam back in '91 - he was bending down and mocking how short he was.  i was 10 years old, and i still remember thinking how much of a clown he was for doing that.

i respect/enjoy his commentating now.

Cantlay had a very strong finish today.

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

He wasn't on too many player's Christmas card lists when he played the tours. Lots of guys thought he was a major jerk. Apparently he has mellowed a lot since going to the booth.

I don't recall what tournament it was, but at a press conference he derided the media by thanking them from the "heart of my bottom".

He beat my personal best by one!

Bo is not going anywhere fast. With Tiger missing tee shots left and right, nothing is over here.

Bo Van Pelt is impressing me.  Hope he makes the Ryder Cup team (not sure where he is at on that list??).

i noticed bo chewing gum earlier.  he's usually good for packing a 4 hour dip with his lip protruding about an inch.

Great battle between Tiger and Van Pelt.  15 had to deflate Van Pelt a bit, he had to think he'd go 1 up on Tiger given the length of Tigers putt compared to his.

Wow... I can't believe Tiger went that hard at the pin.  Especially when Bo had that awful lie.

And Bo replied by not even getting out of the rought with his pitch.

    • 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.
    • 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.
