Did anyone see Phil slip and fall on 18?  He hit his tee shot down on the beach and tried to go down to find his ball.  He slipped on a mossy/wet rock and it slammed his ass.  Poor guy.

Or otherwise DJ was hitting at least 2 provisionals on some holes...

Entertaining TV watching amateur hackers missing putts, picking up their balls. One of the few times that I don't watch the broadcast.

Agree - same here.  Can't wait until they hit Tampa - I'll be going to practice rounds and most likely Th/Friday rounds.

That's an easy way to seriously hurt yourself. He was awfully cavalier about the way he was walking just prior to falling.

Empty bag of bones maybe....

Snedeker's on a serious roll ... if he keeps this up, the Rory vs. Tiger noise will be moot.

Only if he wins a tournament that Rory or Tiger is participating in.

Man Chris Kirk just missed a makeable bird... Could've made 17/18 very interesting.

Clint Eastwood... Wow.  Kind of sad to see him getting to an age where it's difficult to speak.

Kirk's swing not one I enjoy watching at regular speed.

Sweet! I finally picked a winner. I got to live it up because I usually am dead wrong.

    • 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.
