Still lots of golf to be played but Rory seems to have found something.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

No kidding, my post was the first in a week. LOL.

Horschel looks very confident this week, great streak of cuts made going here.  As for Rory he seems up and down, flashes of good but still has been missing right.

Horschel should win this one - unless something happens to him between the ears during the final round.

Still can't believe the bounce-back after shooting 85 a couple of weeks ago. I know that was probably a fluke/freak score due to one really bad John-Daly type hole.

Rory moves to 2nd place at -7, 3 back w/ an early birdie. Hoffman falling by the wayside (unexpectedly - thought he'd be the toughest contender that Horschel needs to worry about).

I'd be more surprised if something didn't happen to him. Unexperienced players in that position can end badly. No way the same as Tiger in that position.

Final round 63, amazing.

This just shows again how deep the Tour is these days. Laird was playing like crap the whole season and looked like a world beater today. I think that's a good example why the all time PGA Tour win record should carry more weight than it does now.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
