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.

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.

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!) ;-)

      Are You "Loyal" to One Golf Ball?

      By 03Bird ·

      Yes. I believe in using the same ball all of the time, including chipping and putting practice. I use the orange Callaway Supersoft.  Only $25 per dozen, and sometimes on sale for $20.

      A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.

      Womens League .Golf Top Level Domain Name

      By iacas ·

      I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
