Looking forward to the newly renovated Doral…

Will Tiger actually play well? Will Rory bounce back?

Hey guys, it's not really necessary (or desirable) at this point to rehash the whole "Tiger cheating...." issue here, again, in this thread.  We had a thread on that, sucked about forty other threads

Nice to see him smile. Hope we see a lot more of that this year.

Should be the best field in a non-major all year, unless Tiger pulls out with a broken nail. :-D

I had forgotten about this.  Now I remember ... Donald Trump bought the place and the re-did it after last year's tournament. Here is an article talking about it, and below is a photo I found on Google that also demonstrates some of the changes:

Should be fun.  And I agree with @David in FL .  Rory will play well, and Tiger probably won't.  (But lets hope he does!)

No thanks, that's a really bad bet. Second favourite odds and the man hasn't performed well since last fall, not to mention he is *supposedly* injured.

Given that he's not even confirmed that he's going to play this week, I think I'd take that bet!

OK, I should clarify more.

If he decides to play, I think he'll win.

About time he puts four good rounds together.

Why is your first instinct that Tiger is faking this injury?

I think he'll play well. I hope he wins.

I don't know, the fact that he was playing poorly without any noticeable signs that he was in pain. But it's just a guess and nothing more than that. For all I know, he might actually be severely injured.

He was seen stretching out his back (or trying to) several times, including on the first tee, in an exaggerated fashion.

Hm. My mistake. I'll defer to your ability, tmac20, to ascertain the pain and mental state of Tiger Woods, since you clearly have insight that I don't posses. It's not like we have the same access to the same information or anything.

This is one of my favorite tournaments. All in all I love the Florida swing because its usually pretty chilly in Georgia around this time and it makes me jealous of their weather :-P

Again, it was just an opinion. I have the right to state my opinion no matter how incorrect you think it is. :-)

      Yeah I’ve tried it but I don’t feel very comfortable doing it like that. Isn’t there like a website where I can do it so it’s safer?? I got scammed one time on FBM so I don’t trust it.

      Day 200 3-4 Wider back swing, arms up a bit higher, and added in some flow work to start getting a since of a full swing. Still focusing on arching wrist through downswing.

      2026 Masters

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
