Hate to say it, but the alleged excuse is weak as water.  An absolute airhead moment, for sure.  Glad he made it in time though.

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.

Disagree.  Simpson and Bradley have outshined him so far.  And of course if the Euros come back, Poulter may outshine both of them.

Donald is no longer playing perfect golf.  Bubba missed two big opportunities.

ZJ needs to capitalize on a weak Gmac.

Bubba stresses me out when he putts. No player has ever made me so nervous watching them putt.

Sergio always looks ridiculous.  He looks like he's wearing spandex most of the time.  I like the tailored look better than the baggy khakis and oversized polo of the previous decades, but there's a line between tailored/fitted and tight.  Tight is not a good look for golf.  His giant moon shoes sticking out of the bottom of a skin-tight pant leg just highlights how absurd the shoes are.

And now he's bitching about the cable wires from the crane. Shut up and hit your terrible shank.

Better not. Kuchar, ZJ, Dufner all need to capitalize on significantly lesser opponents.

You keEp on repeating this nonsense. How are their opponents "significantly" inferior? Your comments indicate that you are very new to the game, but it is match play. A different animal.

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

On paper, no they are not inferior. But Gmac, Hanson and Westwood are not playing good golf right now. Not even close to their abilities. Kuchar, Johnson and Dufner have all been playing very well coming into the RC.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
