Landing area on #16. The fairway bamks up to the right but it is very narrow and nobody will try to hit it up there. It's a short iron over the quarry to the hole, so they will most probably play shor

The ridiculous thing is not that Phil is flying back for his daughter's 8th grade graduation, it is that her school is even HAVING an 8th grade graduation.  Alas this is becoming far too common.

What's the ruling on that?  Same as the green?  He replaces his ball, even though he already addressed it?

Replace the ball, and take a whack at it. He addressed it but never took a swing.

And then we can?  But...you already know what he' s going to shoot. +3. Got any inside tips on the Powerball numbers?

You can insult me as much as you'd like if Woods shoots better than +3 today.

Here are today's hole locations.

#13 is going to be a little tougher as players have to try not to spin it away from the hole.

Not gonna insult you. I just find it amusing how certain you are he's going to shoot +3. With that kind of clairvoyance you should be pretty wealthy.

Considering the way he is chipping and putting I don't think you need to be a fortune teller to make the guess. It's pretty bad. If I was going to place a bet it wouldn't be that he'll rally on the back. He seems to be getting worse if anything.

Does he have to replace it?  or play it where it ends up?

Haven't been able to watch today, just keeping up with scores. Are the hole locations tougher today or the wind or something? Lots of high scores. Angel is +10, most people seem to be over par so far. Kaymer is -3, a few guys are -1, and everyone else is even or worse.

      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.
