I think this is Rickie Fowler's week. All the changes he has made with Butch, I think more wins will start happening. He has played pretty well this year and I just think its his time to get another w

Kaymer's been showing signs the past few weeks of getting his form back. He really went through a major swing change and it might finally be paying off.

No love for Speith? Amazing how consistent and calm his game is at such a young age.  I keep waiting for the flash to dissipate, and the next week there he is again.  I'm really becoming a fan.

Kuchar just hit a bad shot into the green and said, "Jimmie Crickets.". They really need to something about the potty mouths on tour.


His other go-to verbum - where the rest of us would just say f*ck - is 'oh golly'. Simple, but beautiful creature, that Matt :-P

It was funny. The announcer said, "Well put another dollar in the Matt Kuchar swear jar."

How did it come out? One of my employees came in with a question just as he was hitting it.

Greenside bunker. Just made a decent splash out.

I just thought of the corniest golf joke ever -

Q: Will any Korean golfers make the cut?

A: I'm not sure, but Soon-You'll-Know!

Thank you, thank you...

Rory is having a rough day. Now sitting on the cut line. Phil needs to turn things around or miss the cut.

Johnny Miller should change his name to Captain Obvious.

Maybe there's something about sports announcers named John M. who were born in California.

Phil missed the cut. He appeared to be doing some serious soul searching after putting out on 18.

Just watching The Players tape from today. Most golf announcers, and people in general these days, are guilty of this annoying failure to properly use adverbs. Symptomatic of a lower intellectual standard, I suppose, and very grating to the ear, especially in the magnitude delivered here by Peter Jacobson. The world really is going to :poo: .  /rant

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
