Bubba looks distracted and Rory and Martin are doing exactly the right thing - blanking him. Perhaps they should tell him that all they "want to do is play golf"

I don't suppose that's going to work though because Bubba doesn't care what people think about him. We know that of course because he told us himself. He looks mentally very fragile at the moment. Why does he keep puting himself in cross-hairs if he can't handle it? I'm not so sure myself that Rory sticking the first tee shot a symbolic 5yds past Bubba wasn't responsible for his hoik on the second into the forest

All I hope is that Rory jabs at him on 10 to pull out his driver.

Dear Colin Montgomerie:

Think of it this way: Rory isn't trying to win three straight events, he's trying to win the PGA. And given how well he's played lately, he's got as good a chance to do that as anyone. To think that i

That would be great. "Hey Bubba, how 'bout a little side action on this one? Longest drive ok for you?"

The Good News for Tiger is that he is tied with Rich Beem. The bad news is that it isn't 2002 and we ain't at Hazeltine anymore.

Pet Peeve: When two different streams go to commercial at the same time.

My son feels the same way when Sprout and the Baby channel go to commercials.

Baby channels shouldn't even have commercials. :pound:

What site are you streaming? I was streaming earlier but they kept looping Rory's group through the 3rd and 4th holes.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Is something wrong with the audio on the PGA Live stream?

Watching the PGA on TNT, I remember Verne Lundquist as the most popular Dallas Sports Anchor in the 70's ... Good guy on the tube and very diplomatic.. I almost did not recognize him a couple of years ago on television... he also hosted Dallas' version of Bowling for Dollars... long time ago.

Well, I had enough of this malfunctioning site. Sky Sports it is.

Well not only is there a 100% chance of thunderstorms tomorrow, the chances grew to 80% of heavy thunderstorms Saturday. Could be a messy, 2nd and 3rd round. Damn and I have to work Monday.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      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.
