My take is you're going to see a lot of him going forward. He looked pretty cool, calm and collected all through the tournament, as well as the playoff hole. This win gave him the memtal confidence that he can compete with the big guys.

Ice water in his veins.

Despite being British, I favoured Ernst to win the play-off, as he is obviously young and needs the success-----then I heard his "victory speech".  Oh, dear!!   Like many Americans, he attributed his win to "My Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ"!!!   I would have thought He would have more important things than helping Mr. Ernst win a golf tourney------methinks Mr. Ernst needs to reassess things, as it is highly unlikely he is favoured more than the other players on high!!

I shall not be rooting for him again.

I think it could go either way for him.  The guy is only 22- out of curiosity I wonder who is the youngest PGA Tour winner with only 1 career victory??

My guess is that the majority of guys who have won under the age of 25 went on to win at least 1 more time during their career.

Edit- the current answer might be John Huh who won at age 21 last year.  Jason Day whose only PGA win came in 2010 at age 22 could also be a contender, but it is hard to believe that Day, who won a NW event at 19 won't win again.  I guess a better question would be who is the youngest winner now over 40 with only 1 victory.

Thou shant?

Yours in earnest, Jason.
Call me Ernest, or EJ or Ernie.

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
