Besides Tigers bad back, isn't his swing crap right now? I think I heard a pundit on TV say he is going through a swing change right now.(trying to shorten his backswing) I took it with a grain of salt, but no way he's gonna contend.

Very excited about this one.

If Tiger isn't injured and can play, I see him contending, I get he hasn't yet this year, but comon, he isn't doing enough reps, he has barely played. If you play 2 tournaments, chances are you aren't going to win no matter who you are.

Rory should do well, don't know exactly what happened in final round last week, but playing really solid this year. The 3 wood to force playoff was one of the best shots I've ever seen.

Adam Scott and (I think Phil) are also in this one, so may also be solid contenders.

Looking forward to it.

I am not sure whether you are referring to my comments.  If so, I think we are saying the same thing.  Are we not?

:beer:

Either way, I am glad he is playing.  Love to see Tiger and Rory battle it out on the weekend.

I didn't know Scott had a chance to take over world #1 rank. What does he have to do? Win?

I'd like to see him do it!

Yes, he needs to win to take over #1. And at the same time Woods has to finish outside the top 6. I don't think that's very likely, considering he doesn't win that often on the PGA Tour (averages slightly less than 1 win a year). But I think it's likely that Woods doesn't finish very high up the board, I think he just wants to get in some rounds and see where that gets him.

But Scott has been playing his best golf of his career. He won the Masters, the Barclay's, Australian PGA, and Australian Masters. Not to mention his last 3 starts on the PGA Tour have been a T6, T8, and T12. He was T3 at Doral last year. I think he has a great chance of winning this event.

Yes, sorry missed your post. Great minds think alike I guess. Regarding Adam Scott: He is definitely in good form, sadly I would put him above Tiger this week unless his back is feeling better. Speith and Rory are the real money this year I think, judging by their performance so far.

There goes my productivity!

You guys are ***holes!! :beer: (Crim for posting the link, and foursum for mentioning his lack of productivity, thus allowing me to know exactly what it was a link to before I even clicked on it ... and I have a lot of work I'm supposed to do today!) ;-)

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
