With all the rain forecast, I think you could see a record number of players finish under par this week. I personally think they set this course up too easy. Fairways are very wide and rough is hit or miss...some spots good, some spots bad. If Rory is on his A-game, he will literally destroy this place.

I'm more than ok with this. I also hope hope that the PGA moves it's marquee group to Rory, Bubba, Kaymer after Woods groups is done.

Paddy has gotten me twice now, whenever he reads his line I think my stream has stopped because he's so still. (I don't have audio on at work)

30 of the 78 players in the morning group are under par.

45 of 78 are at par or better.

Looks like those predicting that scores would be low were correct.

Andddd...Tiger & Phil are not a member of that group...Cabrera seems to think he's playing Stableford...

"Marquee Group"  (Thanks, Crim for the link)

It's the watch Tiger group.

that said, though it would be cool to play with any of these 3, I'd likely want to play golf with Paddy if the goal was to see great golf WHILE having a fun day.

Tiger is slamming clubs and yelling at himself. How long before the back turns into an issue again?

Tiger hits it so far off-line on 1 (his 10th) that he might just be ok.....

His Feherty episode was extremely entertaining. I agree with you.

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.  
    • Distances look fine, no?
    • Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.
    • Trackman place today. I broke my tripod so could only film by hand the video the venue’s cameras generated. This is an 8 iron. Amazing how odd this feels relative to how it looks. Not similar!
