I read an interview with him in a South African paper just before he won the Dunhill Links last weekend. He said he had a hard time adjusting to the new level of fame/expectation after his rocket start to the season and that it had taken him until now to really get his head and game back together.

Except maybe some of those who actually received Masters invites...2 of his wins came before Augusta, but like Ernie Els, he wasn`t worthy of an invite.  He has had a great year for him considering he had to go to Euro Q school at the end of last season, but he is definitely NOT one of the more consistent at this point.

My vote would go to Brandan Grace - in 26 events so far - 5 wins, 1 other top 10, 4 other top 20s, the rest total Meh.

In bike racing terms - win or bin.

Hence my use of inconsistent!

I saw you said that and wasn`t trying to contradict or correct you...just poorly phrased, I suppose by trying to say he was inconsistent by saying he was not consistent.

Yes, he would be up there for most inconsistent but I think that is even harder to measure than consistent, especially considering his schedule which included a lot of Euro events, both big and lesser as well as some SA and top USA events.

    • 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.
