My first thought on Rory's play the last few weekends...man, he must be one of the most inconsistent golfers out there. One round in the mid 70's and the next in the mid 60's.

but then if you were just to look at his final score in the last 8 tournaments.

6 Top 10's in the last 8 tourney's.

That's pretty amazing!

So what is it? Is he inconsistent? Consistent? Consistent at being inconsistent? A little bit of both?

Depends on where you put the goalposts. For someone like Kuchar or Zach Johnson, that's really excellent, consistent work. But Rory's held to a different standard. He's expected to win nearly every time. So in that sense, with that many near misses, the thinkin goes that he should've won once or twice by now. Personally, I'm somewhere in the middle. I think he's doing well, but could be doing better.

He's been getting more consistent lately.  He had a rough patch last year.

What if I think he has been consistently inconsistent.....how am I supposed to vote?

He has played very well, excluding what seem to be regular short stretches of big numbers - kinda like Phil (look at Phils 2 days at the Masters, -3 for 33 holes and +8 on 3 holes)

Players play, tough players win!

    • I got scammed one time on FBM so I don’t trust it.
    • Yeah I’ve tried it but I don’t feel very comfortable doing it like that. Isn’t there like a website where I can do it so it’s safer??  
    • Day 200 3-4 Wider back swing, arms up a bit higher, and added in some flow work to start getting a since of a full swing. Still focusing on arching wrist through downswing. 
    • It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
