The frustration builds for Bubba. I knew that throwing that club was going to backfire on him.

The second hole will be big for Rory. It's the toughest on the course. Get through that one, and there's some birdie opportunities upcoming, most notably 4 and 7 which he should eat for lunch.

Where can I sign?

Silent, how do you pronounce his first name? Is it prononced phonetically? Or is it more like "Juice"?

Is this one over?

No better player than Rors in these type of conditions -- soft. High ball flight, receptive greens, and seems to help his putting.

As long as there is no wind or much rain during play...

And Rory owns his mistakes. Doesn't blame anything else. And his sign of frustration is a small sigh, then gets on with it.

I pronounce it YOST. There is an 87% chance this is wrong.

Like as in the name of the old Michigan Football coach Fielding Yost? Is that a Dutch way of pronouncing it?

No idea who that is. Like Ned Yost. No idea, probably not.

    • I was on Golf Digest's Golf IQ podcast with Sam Weinman talking about being a "golf dad." https://www.golfdigest.com/story/5-golf-dads-advice I followed: Ian Poulter Mike Thomas Johnson Wagner Kevin Van Valkenburg Apparently the series was only five parts long, as they wrote up a summary article on it.   Golf Dad Part 5: Erik Barzeski on how to switch between father and instructor Podcast Episode · Golf IQ · March 2 · 35m Golf Dad Part 5: Erik Barzeski on how to switch between father and instructor — Golf IQ Erik Barzeski, Director of Instruction at Golf Evolution, is the father of a golf pro and an author, but also has the perspective of someone who works with juniors.

    • 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.
