People Breaking Clubs........that stuff cracks me up! I guess if my tour wins were in the Millions I could handle it. But, a poor golfer like me, NO WAY!!

Its not the dreams in the recesses of you mind, its the approach and how you go at it Roddy

Eh, if he broke it around hole 5 I would have been like whoa but since it was the second to last hole it was no big deal.

I'm not a real Bubba fan or hater but his mental weakness when things don't go his way is just frustrating to watch. The guy has so much talent but is such a head case it's painful.

Soon to be Double for Zachy.

EDIT: DAMN! Incredible save for Par there. What double?!?

The announcers just commented that Bubba seems to have already checked out and thinking about the flight home lol

That Tiger exchange this morning with the photographers was crazy. The guy has back issues already and for him to stop his swing like that could've been REAL bad!

He is so used to it it probably doesn't bother him.

One of the reasons that the Open is one of my favorite majors is the TV coverage. The Masters is great, but TV coverage is short.

Yeah he gets that alot, but this was on consecutive swing (attempts). I dont think I've ever seen him back away from the ball twice becasue of cameras. This happened on 18 on his second.

    • 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.
    • 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.
