The same reason ESPN just posted a story about how well Elin and Tiger are getting along. These people sneeze and they're blinded by cameras flashing and questions. There's always weird people that will follow these stories and eat them with a ladle.

I married my high school sweetheart at age 19, still married to her and doing fine...my golf game however.......

No offense, but when you have a life style like Rory's where hot looking girls are constantly throwing themselves at you, that is a completely different world.

Who said anything about kicking her out of bed? I would let her cook me breakfast in the morning too.

My standards have lowered since I was in my 20s chasing girls. Now heck anything will do.

That is one of the funniest responses I've seen in a long time!!!

Classic!

Rory's card is all over the place in the 1st round of the BMW PGA Championship, but he stands at -4 with two eagles on the card! Keep it up!

What a strange world we live in that this is newsworthy. :sigh:

Rory came out and announced it to the media....and it now has a thread in this very forum with 3 pages. I'd say it's slightly newsworthy.

I'm a little different then some though, I like to know what celebrities are up to.

I understand, but will use that fact as proof that we tend get way to involved in the lives of celebrities. I care about his ability to get a white ball in the hole, and that's primarily because I'm pissed that I can't do it as well as he can. ;-)

Given that Stretch has posted that from Cape Town I assume its a TAB book? and falls under SA rules. I'm curious to know what a 'void' bet is though? In the UK it means the bet is struck down with a refund. Are the TAB laying the field to a void race? Bloody hell, that's brave bookmaking, unless they're expecting Rory to come out the closet with a shock announcement.

I'd have been interested in a price on 'himself' but since they're stipulating Rory has to confirm it, I suspect it won't pay

It'll be a real book by the way Motley. Our gambling laws are much more liberal and deregulated than yours, and these sorts of topical novelty books are quite normal and much copied in places like South Africa. Sadly for firms like Betfair in particular, US Federal Government doesn't trust you, and feels it necessary to protect the 'land of the brave and the home of the free' from evil European bookmakers who are desperate to offer you their prices but you're restricted instead to the Tote. I know it's a pain because I've had all sorts of issues trying to place bets in the UK before on behalf of American's

I've just had a check on some of our current markets and although we haven't got a Rory book, one of the more amusing we have at the moment is how will Julian Assange leave the Ecuadorian Embassy with the following prices available

British police car 4/5, Ecudorian State Car 5/4, Helicopter 8/1, Diplomatic bag 20/1, Laundry van 66/1, Tunnel 66/1, Hot Air Balloonn 150/1, Jetpack 250/1

Price on 'disguise' would worth knowing

I'll put a buck on jetpack...

I dont think it was a coincidence that Adam Scott struggled when he was with Ana Ivanovic.

then broke up and hooked up with an Au Pair girl now is #1

Rory needs to find stay "at home girl type" and to get to #1.

Tiger needs to do the same too if he wants to win a Major.

So you're suggesting there's a correlation here between athletic nubile tennis players draining the energy from golfers?. What happened to Greg Norman when he was hooked up with Florida's first lady? I thought he had a brief return to form before the inevitable curse of the tennis court kicked in? Urm.... I could point out that Jiminez married last week (a non tennis player) and then went and set a new record for the oldest winner of a European tour event over the weekend!!! I mean .... what more proof do we need?

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
