Need some help here! How long was the rain delay? I've got the PVR going but if it runs over I need to where they'll go? Back to the Golf Channel? Usually I just record the shows following the broadcast, that way if there's a playoff or rain delay I doesn't get cut off, but in this case there's a CFL game after the golf and I don't know if they'll preempt that, actually I'm sure they won"t as they have a contract with the CFL that needs to be respected.

Yours in earnest, Jason.
Call me Ernest, or EJ or Ernie.

Like I said yesterday, the only thing that can slow him down is the driver. Already missed the first two fairways. Good news for Rory is this course has no rough. Drew two great lies on 10 and 12.

That's one of the things I most dislike about the way they set these courses up. It's a Major Championship. These are the best players in the world. There out to be much more severe penalties for not being straight.

The more I practise, the luckier I hope to get.

Tiger's pic isn't showing up on the PGA app for his tee time (it is on yesterday's) and had me wondering if he WD but I saw no news on it.

"My ball is on top of a rock in the hazard, do I get some sort of relief?"

It would be amazing if Steve Stricker wins the PGA after being named Ryder Cup co-captain. I don't think he could do it, but I am certainly rooting for him.

Geez, Bubba's caddie is kissing his rear end royally, cleaning the ball and club face immediately before Babba hits his tee shot. Bubba still complains "Wter on the club face. Water on the club face. No spin". as if is his caddie had messed up.

Stop complaining already, Bubba. This effects everyone, not just YOU.

That's his job.

Sorry, I don't think that every comment that he makes to his caddie is intended as a complaint about the caddie.

agree - seriously, he wasn't hacking on his caddie, he was just venting in general and the caddie was commiserating

OK. Maybe I misread the exchange. That caddie is doing a whole lot of commiserating today.

    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
    • Hello, I've been playing a Teardrop td17 F.C. putter for many years and love it. It still putts and feels as good or  better than any of the new putters I've tried and it's in excellent condition except the face has dings in it ever since I bought it used that kind of bother me. I was just wondering if it's possible to have some really shallow horizontal grooves milled into the face on a "roll face" putter. I think I would rather spend some money on it instead of trying to get used to a new putter.  Thanks
    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.
