Anyone know what the SS (actually the first S is backwards, but can't type that) logo on the back of Adam's shirt is for?

I know his shirt is made by Uniqlo, and his other major sponsors are Mercedes, Titleist and Rolex, but I am intrigued with that logo and can't find any info on it.


Thanks,

Mike

I still feel like Tiger's the only one out there worthy of his own logo. Love me some Adam Scott but come on now.

Got to give Scotty credit on his sponsors in general, though. Mercedes, Titleist and Rolex sure beat 5-Hour Energy or Perky Jerky.

A couple of the commentators were drooling about his swing- the look of it. I think it s one of the best myself., that's what Tigers swing used to look like

Different day and age now though, players are branding themselves a lot more.

He's gotta be! Look at the guy, and look at his swing cryin out loud. But I will say I thought his wife/GF would be hotter. But I always thought that was a double S also.

I could be mistaken, But the SS logo could be cool enough to have double meanings - as for Adam Scott, or, his London rainwear sponsor, Aquascutum, venerable rival of Burberry? Very Clever!

THere's no SS logo.

Adam Scott's is an "a" and an "s".

Sergio Garcia's is an S and a G.

That's all fine and dandy - but I don't see any of the major retailers giving up a hat rack for hats with the "as" on them anytime soon, unlike the "TW" Nike hats a few years ago.

Tiger is the only one worthy of a Logo, only Tiger can wear red and black on Sunday, Tiger this and Tiger that.........Geeeeeezzzzzzzzzz, can you say Bromance!

Personally I'm enjoying a vacation from Tiger, and I'm not looking forward to the media feeding frenzy when he returns, which he will.

But you don't mind Justin Rose and Dustin Johnson having their own logo? Or Ian Poulter. At least Poulter's is a business and not a tax dodg........I mean "charitable foundation".

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

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
