Go Rory!

Rumford +6 through 2...NOT GOOD.

Rumford teed off on the 10th hole to start. He hit his first 3 tee shots in the water. His 4th tee shot found the rough. Lying 7! He shot at 11 on that one, +6 to start. Ouch.

I saw him win a tourney or two on Golf Channel- he's no slouch. As I recall it was European Tour swing through Asia.

Are Rory's bogeys all coming from the left rough? I can't watch at work. :-(

Yours in earnest, Jason.

The Golf Channel stream on PGATour.com was kind of ambiguous about the fact that play was suspended. Didn't realize it until I saw Tiger at -20 in the red shirt. :doh:

Lol. Were you laying down bets with all comers? Reminds of the joke about the newfie betting on the 11'o'clock news.

Heh. That's not the first time that's happened to me either. I wish they'd just keep a little watermark in the corner of the screen saying that play was suspended. Anyway, play is resuming at 4:45.

I agree, they should have "previously broadcasted" indicated somewhere.

Tiger, Tiger... Wtf are you doing with a strap-back hat??

Cheap shot:   He needs an adjustable cap for his ego.   If he starts winning, he has to let the hat out.

Don't know what you guys are talking about, Tiger is looking slick today. Seems to be having trouble with the greens though, hopefully he gets them figured out soon. This new course has been a blast to watch so far, I really like challenging courses more than birdiefest bs for the pros.

    • Day 187: 6/27/24 Putting practice on a 3’ 1” wide ruler. Slow motion swings with a PW.
    • Those look good.
    • I hit a bad tee shot on hole 7, but made a stupid recovery.  There was the easy punch out into the fairway and have about 150 in. Then there was to hit a low overdraw that stayed in this alley of trees that could run the ball up near the green. I was 185 yards into the green. I took my 5 iron and laced a low draw to about 15 yards short of the green. Off a pretty tight light as well. I was really proud of this shot. The ball didn't get more than 15-Ft off the ground for about 160 yards. 
    • Trying to describe the swings tonight in comparison to the better swigs on the range.  1. Not hanging out on the trail side as long as I need. Even though it was a slight push cut, the best struck ball was the 7 iron on hole 9. nGIR from 185 yards, like 8 yards off center of green from 185 yards, so like a 4% leave, not too shabby. Took me long enough to exaggerate this feel. 🙄 I finally was able to get an up and down for par. Short game feels average, but I can't buy a putt right now. I am hitting decent putts. Good weight. Just nothing going in outside of 5-FT.  2. Downswings were not the good kind where I get separation with the hands from my body. It was a lot of dipping the body and keeping elbow bend. When I hit a lot of big pushes, I know this is happening. It tends to be the pattern, especially when I struggle to turn good. Things just dip way to the inside. Just struggled with this tonight. I think it was probably because I didn't get the pause feel correct.  3. Wedges were really good. SW, GW, and PW are the best clubs right now to feel a good swing. I am just able to really feel the club stop short of A4, pause it, and then rip it. I had 138 yards shot into a par 3, and I took my PW. I felt like I kept the swing at like A2.5, and just crushed it to 138 yards. Like, ball landed 4-FT right of the pin, then spun back 25-FT off the green. Kind of a stupid green, like 5% slope back to front.  Current good feels.  1. Swing length to A3.  2. Gain separation between my body and hands in the downswing.  3. Somehow add turning into this? This really my biggest struggle. There are three outcomes right now. First, I turn and don't get my hands down well. Second, I get my hands down and it feels like I do not turn at all. Third, I sync up both and crush the ball.
