OK fine, he does have a pretty weird hands thing he does through impact. Other than that it all looks so classic to me... and the tempo! Gorgeous.

Agree to disagree.

That's fair.  But, yeah, if a genie came to me and said that I'd be gifted the swing of one PGA Tour player, AND that 100 other random people were getting the same wish, AND that we would all be gifted a different players swing, therefore, I was to list all of the PGA players swings that I'd like in order, 1 through 100 ... I know that Luke Donald would not be near the top of that list.  I don't know where he'd be, but he wouldn't be near the top.

Oh of course. Same with me.

Elvy just said on one of the featured groups that Tiger's camp says he's "likely to be back by the end of the summer."

Ahhh. I remember I asked you that yesterday. Thanks for sharing. Wow, so maybe the PGA huh? Ouch. That.... stinks.

Haha.  Just checked out the MASTER'S leaderboard and found that Streelman had nothing but 1s and 2s on his card, except for the first hole where he scored a 0 (zero).  That's mighty good golf and he should offer his services to North Korea where the Master there wants good golf.

Yeah, the MASTER'S is a load of pretentious crap.  Oh, i enjoy the golf and players well enough but the organizers are money and status morons.

Those numbers are his total score in the tournament, not his score for each hole.  He started off even, birdied 2, birdied 4, bogied 9, birdied 16, bogied 17, and parred the rest.

Its nice to be able to see what everybody does on every hole, even though you can't watch all of the holes.

Looks like Phil won't be making the cut. On 12, he just went from bunker to bunker to bunker and tripled it. DAMMMMMITTTT Phil.....

Likely no majors then.

Another missed year.

And according to a Golf Digest writer, Thursday viewership on ESPN was down 800,000 people to about 2 million. It's gonna be a loooooong year.

Nice shirt DeLaet. Lol. Must have bought it in Canada. He looks like he's going back to the hotel to fire up the bong.

Holy crap! Mike Weir is at 3-under? That's awesome! He just snuck up on me.

I told Dave this morning we should bet on him. He was 600:1 then.

And what's @Rick Martin have to say about that? Wasn't Weir in his list of people who shouldn't even be there?

If Mike Weir wins this would be the most shocking win ever in golf. Canadian golfers like myself would go nuts!

He won't. I don't even feel bad about not betting. Would have been a waste of $10.

Patrick Reed bogeyed 1&2. Plus 16, 17, & 18 last round. That's an unfortunate bogey train. Update: now bogeyed 3rd hole too. Ouch

    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.

    • Cool here's my tweak, "If a player’s ball lies in the general area and there is interference from exposed tree roots or exposed rocks that are in the fairway or 1 club length from the fairway the tree roots and exposed rocks are treated as ground under repair. The player may take free relief under Rule 16.1b.[But relief is not allowed if the tree roots only interfere with the player’s stance.]
    • I would never do the extended warranty on the $50 slow cooker.  I also routinely reject the extended service plans on those toys we buy for the grand-kids.  I do consider them on higher cost items and will be more likely to get one if the product has a lot of "Electronic Tech" that is often the problem longer-term.  I also consider my intended length of ownership & usage.  If my thought is it would get replaced in 2-3 years then why bother but if I hope to use it for 10 years then more likely to get the extension. I did buy out a lease about a year ago.  Just prior to the lease end date the tablet locked up and would not function.  I got it repaired under the initial warranty and would not have bought it out if they had not been able to fix it since IMO once electronic issues start in a car they can be hard to track down & fix.  They did fix it but when I bought out the lease I paid up for the extended warranty the would cover electronic failures because my intent is to keep that car for another 8-10 years and I just do not trust the electronics to last.  Last week the touch screen went black and was unresponsive.  It reset on the 2nd time I restarted the car but that is exactly how the last malfunction started.  I fully expect to have a claim on that on repair under the extended warranty.  I do not recall the exact cost to fix last time since I did not pay it but I think it was @ $700-$800 and I suspect that will be higher next time.
    • Have you looked at Model Local Rule F-9 Relief from Tree Roots in or Close to Fairway?  You could extend this to cover exposed rocks.  The rule is recommended to be used only for areas relatively near the fairway, a player who hits a shot 20 yards in the woods doesn't really deserve relief.   Players can always take Unplayable Ball relief, they're not required to play it from a rock or a root.  Of course, they hate to take the penalty stroke too.
