Haha, my cell phone keeps auto-correcting stricker's name as "atrocity" in text messages. Pretty fitting.

I wonder if DL3's strategy is to keep Tiger and Stricker together to prevent them from ruining other matches. Limit the damage to one match instead of two.

Evidently he has been sober for a good bit now.

I'm sure the Europeans would've loved a John Daly captain's pick.

I'm not sure what Westwood and Donald have left at this point.  They haven't shown up in a big moment in... ?

Define "All-American."  All I see when I look at Webb is a passion for cardigans, cheeseburgers and...

I guess that's as All American as it gets.

Call me old fashioned, but I don't care for the obnoxious people in the galleries clapping and cheering poor shots, taunting the players. Originality also seems to be lost on the captains.

If Daly was playing, he wouldn't be able to keep up with these quick turnarounds. The afternoon is about to begin with Bubba on the first tee.

Of course, and I have no problem with that. But his little Chic fil A thing (along with Cink) just bothered me. Nothing to do with religion, but the belly putter argument was annoying and terrible. Lastly, I just dont get genuine vibes from him. Plain and simple, I do not care for the guy. I'm sorry my opinion differs from yours. I forgot we all need to agree on everything around here.

No, but the way you express yourself on the forum is going to lead people to draw inferences about you. I hope you're comfortable with that. Better you stick to discussing golf IMO.

1. Not sure anyone has made a putt on Saturday. Maybe afternoon play will be better. 2. Europeans have too many of their top players not in good form and it's killing them: Westwood, McDowell, Donald, Kaymer (who isn't seeing the course on Saturday).

2) Its not so much good form as it is just overrated players. Westwood and Donald have not ever gotten it done on the big stage. Kaymer is quite possibly a one hit wonder. Of those 4, imo Gmac is the only real competitive threat on the big stage and you're right, he is not in very good form. The other three are overrated. At least Westwood an Kaymer.

Both are.

I understand thinking they're 'due' but damn they didn't sniff the green on either of the first two holes.

      Scottie & Rory on Wedge Game

      By iacas ·

      Ooh, I don't know about that. I've hit flop shots that are 6-7° down. The more you widen the spin loft the less ball speed you put into the ball.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By StuM ·

      Can't brag about a 50 last night but it was the best round of my season (4 rounds of 9 holes) so I am not as upset as I could be.  One thing I am noticed is that I got a little more confident in my long hybrids and I attempted a couple longer shots that typically I would just lay up and those holes were a big part of the lower score.  Not every shot was great but good enough that they helped.  I even shot par on a Par 5 after taking a drop.  On that hole I would usually lay-up to @ 100 yards and often miss the green altogether with my 3rd shot (or worse chunk my approach and put it in the waste area).  Yesterday I went for it from @ 200 yards out with wind in my face and landed in the waste area short of the green.  My drop left @ 40 yards in and I stuck it to 3 feet for my par putt.  If I had laid up I would have avoided the penalty stroke but likely would not have been on the green in regulation and may still have been working for par.  By going for it I gave myself a chance at birdie and still saved par. I do not plan on being crazy aggressive but I think I tend to be too conservative at times so I will "go for it" a little more often going forward.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 14 (15 May 24) - Worked with the SW in the backyard, short pitches from 10yds up to 30yds.   Focused on ball placement in stance - ball back, ball forward, ball center.  Afterwards moved to inside the shop to work on putting pace on the rug - putting one way gives about an 8' putt, going the other a 6' before bumping onto the adjacent rug.  Focused there on the line - picking a target point about 18"-24" out and making sure the ball rolls through that point.

      When someone is trying to validate their choice, statements concluding with "right" are often the MO.  Too bad he thinks he has to keep defending his decision, just do like guys like DJ and HVIII - take the money, play the tourneys and keep quiet.
