I think Ricky played great alongside Tiger yesterday.  I actually take what happened on 16 with a glass half full approach.  He knew he needed to birdie (there was a HIGH chance Tiger was going to) an

notice the smaller galleries for the leaders - nothing compared to TW's galleries.....I might go tomorrow and will avoid TW's galleries like the plaque.

Just watched Castano and TW hit consecutive shots into the crowds and no one yells whatsoever - none of the caddies, players, marshall - so many eyes on the ball, but not a shout --------witnessed this several times last week at Tampa as well.

I saw it. It was the hazard by the lake in front of the green. He touched the grass several times before hitting the ball.

#8 hole in front of the green  - lateral hazard - Nobilo said the player is allowed to touch the top of the grass - but it appeared that Folwer drops the club into the grass when addressing it. Rickie was able to get up and down on the hole. Rolfing and Nobilo didn't say a word about a possible infraction.

Rose running away a little bit right now, playing very well.

And the way Woods is knocking in those 6-8 footers for par is impressive.

That's not a penalty. You can touch the grass you just can't sole your club or touch water. The grass is not a loose impediment either.

It looked to me like the club went down into the grass before he took his backswing. I could be mistaken...

clubhead pretty much disappeared into the grass, but evidently didn't ground it...

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
