Aint that the truth.  Our Canadian Open needs a better date on the PGA Tour Schedule!

Rors is now +6.  Just made a triple.  Looks like another missed cut.  I think his frolocking around the world with Ms. Wozniacki is more the culprit that his sticks.

I'm heading to Glen Abby this year again for the 2nd time last year I was at the Hamilton GCC if any TST forum guys from the area we should meet up! Great... RORS is in my line up for today - I didn't have time to move Tiger over :(

I was at Hamilton last year and will be at Glen Abbey this year.  Let's keep in touch.

Rors just made another bogey on #17.  That's a triple, bogey two hole stretch and is now at +7 and on pace to shoot 42.  Can you say wake up call?

They put Rory on the swing tracker yesterday and compared his current swing to the one he had at Congressional when he won the U.S. Open. Not sure if it was just one single poor swing, which is plausible, but there was a noticeable, albeit easily correctable, difference. The current swing was slightly past parallel, plus he stood up slightly before impact.

Watch him come out next week and shoot a low score to make this post look silly. Ha.

I saw that too which goes back to my original point.  He's been more busy with his GF the last 3 months than focusing on golf.  I don't buy the equipment excuse. When you are the best in the world, you HAVE to keep working hard.  That's one thing with Tiger.  Tiger always worked his arse off.  That said, this is good for Rory...like I said, wake up call.

It's round #5 for him this year.  He'll be good to go by the time the Masters rolls around.  (He just ripped one onto the fairway on #18.  Gotta love Shot Tracker).

McIlroy has withdrawn. Playing bad so he just quit. Not good.

Really?  There isn't any indication of an injury?  The boys a GC are going to be all over this.

Walked right off the course from 18 (his 9th) to his car. Not a word to anybody.

On No. 18 – his ninth hole of the day – McIlroy hit an approach shot just short of the greenside bunker, then picked up his ball, shook hands with playing partners Mark Wilson and Ernie Els , then quickly left the premises.

Wonder if he'll get a fine?

I also wonder why my text is highlighted with grey...

Nike's next commercial can be Rory sneaking covertly off the golf course.

They've even picked it up on SportsCenter. At least he gets to play all 4 rounds next week at Doral - there's no cut there.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
