I may have set my alarm for 4am. I may also have set my alarm for Tiger's tee time. I'm not telling.

The player furthest away from the hole plays first.

Saturday of a major has been pure frustration for Tiger fans the last couple years, we'll see if today is any different. If they hit it close enough to the hole, they may elect to finish

Wish I could be watching. I'm refreshing the Tiger hole by hole on USA Today. Seems like he's playing alright. Kinda bummed to see Faldo up there with a +8, would be nice to see him make the cut. Duval +5, I'd really like to see him make the cut but I almost think Faldo has a better shot still.

Woah! I thought he was playin' just fine through 8?!? What hapepened? Was Tiger teasing him?

Edit: Okay maybe he wasn't, I just looked at the hole by hole and he was +4. Can't wait to read what happened!

He doubled 7 and bogey'd 8. Apparently had a leg injury.

I'm at work, otherwise I totally would be watching, unless I was actually golfing.

I'm trying to watch this online, but the only thing I see is this video playing on right on the the front page of the open. Com. They're not actually showing golf. Am I missing something?

I think the only place you can see it is through ESPN3 or Watch ESPN or whatever it's called now.

When you're on theopen.com, you need to click the toolbar on the video and select the "7, 8 & 9" stream.

No[quote name="David in FL" url="/t/68416/official-2013-british-open-at-muirfield-discussion-thread/30#post_868762"]Heard an interesting fact today. The Muirfield membership plays foursome partners alternate shot as their standard game. Only with permission can they play their own ball. On average, a foursome will get around in 2:30 or so.....[/quote] Not true. You play your own ball in the morning 18, stop for lunch and kimmel and then play alternate shot in the afternoon round. Visitors are welcome to play on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

      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.
