It's a bit crowded at the top.

not really, there are only 57 players within 6 shots of the lead...Kuchar and the other guys who missed the cut don't have a chance to win.

There are naysayers that want people to think that being jacked is extremely negative for a golf swing...I think the pic you posted should be shown every time to prove them wrong.

I'm straight and can appreciate a damn good bicep hahahah. Adam is a stud.

What will Adam Scott do when he has to lose the long putter?  Could he make that putt, under pressure with a traditional putter?

Actually, I thought "a bit crowded" was an understatement- sorry for not putting a sarcasm emoticon.  I don't recall a tournament where:

1.  So many guys were within 6 shots on Sunday

2.  So many guys who had at least a share of the final round lead ended up outside the top 9 i.e. Walker, Chappell, Stroud, Clark (t21), Matsuyama and Chad Campbell (t30)

3.  The winner and 4 other guys who finished in the top 10 were in the bottom half of the field after the first round.

I think you're going to see a lot of guys start going the "Kuchar way" of putting. Starting to see it already.

Also, curious what the rule is on the long putter. If it's not touching your body, are you still going to be allowed to use it? Because with long putters like Adam has, you can still use those things without it anchored against your body. The belly putters are definitely a goner.

I gotta believe that using that putter while not anchored would be extremely difficult, don't think that'll catch on but the Kuch style probably will. While Scott won big events with the short putter years ago, I think he'd better try to get 2 or 3 majors in the next year and a half or he may not get another.

He won the Players Championship with a traditional putter.

I think he'll be fine.

For a while I was nervous about this. I was sure he'd drop off when finally forced to ditch the broom stick. But given that he was using AimPoint yesterday, I have no doubt he'll switch to a counter-balance putter when the new rule takes effect. He'll probably be fine.

Finally caught the highlights BTW. WIsh I watched this one.

      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.
