Tiger seems to be reading this forum. He replied to the [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/t/64709/why-isnt-tiger-in-more-events]"Why isn't Tiger in more events?"-thread[/URL] by committing to the [URL=http://www.pgatour.com/tourreport/2013/02/12/tiger-commits-to-the-honda-classic.html]three next tournaments[/URL] on the PGA Tour. World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship - Feb 20 - 24 The Honda Classic - Feb 28 - Mar 3 World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship on Tuesday - Mar 7 - 10 Thought it was worth a thread, Tiger being who he is.

It's good for golf when Tiger is playing, getting the big media to cover the events more.

I'm not sure what contract length he has with Nike currently (I think last one expired in 2011) but I'd guess he's feeling some heat with Nike signing Rory.

Why is that a question?

He's already won a lot more PGA Tour events this year than almost everyone else will. :)

The Honda tried to make a media event of Tiger's commitment today although it was a foregone conclusion.  I skipped the press conference today, but last year it was a major freakin deal.  I almost went only to get the first hand account for my Trappers, but I had something else going on.

http://thesandtrap.com/t/55694/2012-honda-classic-discussion-thread

Any tournament that scores Tiger plain scores and can pick up 30% across the board. I see him really trying to win at the Honda because it is Jack's course and he finished 2nd to Rory last year.  He really had a great Sunday last year in the March breeze.

I wish he would play more tournaments but it's good to see that he's committed to three in a row.

im conflicted...i love tiger more than anyone else on the face of the earth, but at the same time i like the mystique of him not playing that much, it makes the tournaments that he does play that much more special.

GOOOO TIGER!!!!!

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      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.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      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.
