Ughh, my Golf Channel Live Extra app for my computer has been really bad for the European Tour coverage. So choppy.

Bjorn has had his struggles on Sundays in big events when he's at the top. The British Open of '03 obviously comes to mind...he faded this year at Augusta on Sunday. Kinda reminds me of Jiminez a little bit.....always puts himself in contention in the big ones but has struggles on Sunday.

Yeah this is really interesting. He's coming up to the back 9....can he light it up again?

I'm watching it on a browser on laptop. Same deal. All the other streaming sites Netflix, HBOGO, ESPN, etc... are quite zippy. Come on Golf Channel NBC Comcast overlords. 2014 and I'm treating an HD feed like a 1920 era radio.

It was doing the same thing yesterday, then when it switched over to the PGA tournament it was fine. It has to be just the European feed...but I thought for sure they would have fixed it by today.

Very frustrating.

Lowry having some major troubles, if he misses this putt he'll be in a 3 -way tie with Rory and Bjorn!!!

This is ridiculous.

Damn exciting golf today! Feeling it for Bjorn

Kinda sad that the last two weeks of the European Tour have been more exciting than the entire PGA Tour season. Big names and dramatic finishes. Good stuff.

Yup! Euro tour has been awesome this year. Glad Golf Channel continues to pick it up. (even if their internet feed is shite this week.)

    • Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.
    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
