Not even Friday yet and my final four are already eliminated. For the fourth year running, my mom's brackets will probably be more right than mine.

I guess he'll get an F from Chamblee for the year since it had to be brought to his attention.

I'm fairly certain that Weisberger knew all along that Kuchar forgot to re-mark. Kinda petty, IMO. He has no obligation, I know, but I always remind my opponent, since I am the one who asked him to move it in the first place.

I don't think his opponent had any idea about the error since he shook Kuch's hand and acted as if the match was over.

My Final Four was Reed, McIlroy, Spieth, and Mahan.  Not looking so good so far....  Since I don't have either of my final four picks for the Jones and Hogan brackets I will be rooting for Harris English and Louis!  Besides Spieth and Mahan of course.

Did anyone see the tweet from G Mac after his round pretty much sums up this crazy game and even crazier tournament.

Got to love match play!

match play is fun - a couple of these matches were more about who's having a slightly less crappy day than the other guy

I think it was Jason Day that came right out and said it "I've played lousy and was lucky my opponents were also having bad days......"

I'd like to see the stroke play scores and then see who's winning with lousy scores vs who's lost even with great scores -

Every time Bubba misses a short putt he looks at his caddie like it was the caddies fault. Bubba needs to either learn to read putts by himself, or get a caddie that can read them better. I sure hope he pays his caddie well!

Bubba does the same thing when he hits a shot that isn't the perfect yardage. Such a douchey move.

Yeah, this was made into a big deal at one point last season when he was "caught" on camera berating his caddy for a shitty shot.  Since then, I've noticed it's a thing he does often.  I presume his caddy just sees it as being a part of his job - to let Bubba vent, thus allowing him to play better - but it still looks like a dick move to us outsiders.

    • Couple things to update First on the clubs/ball. I switched golf balls to the Left Dash ProV1x. It seems like a great fit for me. I always need lower spin off the tee, it's about a half club longer into greens, and still gives me enough spin with chips and pitches to hit whatever shot I need. The durability is insane too, played 35 holes with one over my last two rounds and it still looked brand new until I lost it. Hybrid is no longer. Couldn’t quite get a consistent strike and the random snap hook left was always lurking as soon as the strike drifted out towards the toe. I know it was me not the club but I couldn’t stand the lefts anymore. Titliest fitting guy came to our club a few days ago and I had been curious about the T200 3iron. I hit a few with it and the stock HZRDUS graphite shaft, it wasn’t bad at all but I could definitely tell when I mishit it. Then the fitter had me try the U505 3iron. When he asked if I was open to trying it I said something like “Isn’t that the game improvement one?” and he said “Just trust me and hit a few with it”. Within 5 swings I was sold. Suddenly it didn’t look as big and chunky when I started hitting rocket after rocket. It did every single thing I want a 3 iron to do. It flies very high, forgiving, can hit it off the tee and ground, can flight it low when needed, and best of all, it doesn’t go left. He had me try to snap hook one left and it resulted in a nice tight draw, nowhere close to a hook. Tried it with the stock shaft and their upgraded one, ended up hitting it the best with the Graphite Design Tour AD IZ-95. Ended up getting a great deal on a used one that arrived yesterday so going to go measure my numbers with it today at the range. I expect to be using this a lot for 2nd shots into par 5s, being that 230-250 club. Hit some on the Mevo+ yesterday and the distance is exactly what I needed.     From a playing perspective, been playing pretty solid so far this season, driving and putting have been solid overall, approach shots have been good for the most part and short game wasn't great to start the year but it's been getting better lately with some more dedicated practice. Compared to scratch over 7 rounds:
    • so with the driver. Feel more arm  width at A4. keep an in the eye on the ball. The first move from the top is lowering the hands down. Don’t mix that up with looking up at the target as the club comes down from A4 with the body. Feel like I get width with the arms from the chest in the Downswing.

    • Went back and reviewed my rounds this year at my home course to fill out the spreadsheet. Realized I have made at least par on each hole but two that I have bogied. At my skill level, it gives me a new confidence that I can play each hole decently well and strong together a lower score. Great mental boost. 
    • I'm at 330 I think. I have a spreadsheet with all of them in it. It helps having lived in two countries. 159 in the US and 136 in the UK. Then a handful in Europe and a few in other countries (Canada, Australia, Mexico).
