I think Webb Simpson will win it this weekend.

And if you have both... Well, I'll just leave this here.

Is Bubba blaming his caddy for that triple? Seems like it with the tone and whining, blame voice.

Why do they call golf "golf"?  Because all the other four letter words were taken.

He wasn't happy with the club selection on the tee shot. And then it sounded like he didn't believe the yardage from the drop zone.

Just venting some frustration haha

What else would you expect from the "fun loving and crazy" Bubba?

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Bubba is a whining baby.  His actions of blaming someone else for his errors are those of an egotistical a-hole who thinks that he's better than everyone else.  Wait, it must be God that made the balls go in the water!  And made him hit it over the 18th green!  Of course, we'd only hear about God if he won.  I know, here we go again...

And now a playoff, great chip in by Stroud. He's going to have a tough time calming himself for the real work now of winning the playoff.

Don't think I've seen a worse chop at a driver on the first playoff hole than Duke's high capper lunge...

Stroud is pumped, Duke is disheveled. I have to believe this playoff isn't going to carry on much further. ...and then Duke sticks it. Shows you what I know.

Ken Duke wins at 44! He's no longer that guy that's always in the top 25 but never wins.

I still have 19 years to get good enough and win on tour hahaha

Crazy Ken Duke finally won. Great tournament this year. I really love this course.

PS- That Chris Stroud sure has a handsome swing.

Well, he really wasn't that guy. This year he missed 10 of 18 cuts and finished inside the top 25 just 4 times. This just shows how hard it is to win a golf tournament, when a 44 year old (not very fit) journeyman can win any given week, the depth on the Tour right now is incredible.

Did Stroud chose the right club off the tee? I think he would have had a better chance to get close to the hole from a bit farther back (like Duke was), hitting 3 wood off the tee. But of course, hindsight is a wonderful thing.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
