Top 3 choices are:

1. Phil (He's always the top contender)

2. Rory (Because of his distance if he pulls one, it's gonna end up in Northwest Kentucky somewhere)

3. Tiger (for obvious reasons)

I'm a little confused by this. Are the choices limited to these three players? Or are you picking three players who you think will hit awful shots?

Oh sorry.  Those are just my top 3 choices. You can choose whomever you think.

Well my next question is, how do you measure the worst shot? What if some random unknown pro hits the worst shot and it's not aired on TV?

Well obviously I mean a shot that we will all be able to see while watching the tv coverage. It could be a bad drive, snap hook into the water, topped ball or swing and a miss. We don't need to get too technical.  Just our own humble opinions about who hit the worst shot.  I personally think Phil is gonna try a big draw somewhere and it's gonna go dead straight or even fade. Rory is gonna SMASH a drive 345 that might snap hook and Tiger is definitely gonna put one OB somewhere if he plays.  I should have put Bubba in there also.

There will be club pros well out of their element who will hit worse shots than any which will be televised. This is a bogus question.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...

I guess if it's not

My god, is it really that serious? I mentioned above that I'm talking about shots that will be shown during the coverage. Why the %$#!% would I be talking about a shot that nobody will see?

I think these are valid questions considering the vagueness of your thread title. It's a very hard question to answer as there will be literally be over 20,000 shots taken in this tournament. Anywhere from the tee to the green. Tee shots, approaches, short game, putts, recovery shots, etc.

Someone will double-cross a snap-hook into the trees.

Someone will miss an 18-inch putt.

Someone will chunk a shot that won't clear a pond by 30 yards.

I have no earthly idea who will hit each.

You know that you wanted to say that each one would be either JD or TW

Okay. It will be Michael Block. Or one of the other list of club pros in the field. Since they will likely be affected by the pressure more than the tour pros.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
