It has to be pretty easy course if Alice Cooper can eagle on it.

Stallings' leaving himself a pretty long putt to make the playoff.

In my bag ... 12 year old Balvenie DoubleWood

Charles had his chance in regulation, and it stinks seeing him finish 2nd. That being said, it's hard to gripe about a T3 and T2 to start the season. Congrats to Brian Gay on a solid win. Bring on Torrey Pines!

It does seem like he always has that one good event, we all say "man, I wish CH3 would be in competition more," we hear about new swing changes and how he's in a good place now, and then he fades away for the rest of the year.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

Thanks Brian Gay.  You were my "C" pick in  TST fantasy golf this week.

CH3 had a really strong 2011 season and finished T6 at East Lake. In all reality, he was a couple shots from winning The FedEx Cup which is a discussion for another day. He did his damage from June through the end of the season in 2011. He had a dreadful 2012 though and already has more top-fives than last year. He will always hit the ball well enough to compete, but his success will continue to depend on his putter. Right now, he is making putts. We'll see how it goes. His best years seem to happen in the odd years, so maybe he keeps it going in 2013. The guy still has a lot of years left, and he has won over 20 million. The way everyone talks about him, you would think he has played the Web.com Tour every other year.

Good tournament. DVR'd it and watched it in between watching NFL games.

Does what Stallings did constitute a "choke" - hate that word, but he looked yippie on some putts and chips (according to Sir Nick).

I was pulling for Charles Howell III - he won't get many chances like that again. Really has been a disappointment, imo.

    • 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.
