That's true, but I suspect that if he was throwing tantrums we might have seen more of him for entertainment value alone. I never thought I'd be a Reed apologist, but I thought his fist pump at the last was worthy of comment. He does himself no favours with his perceived arrogance, but hopefully he'll learn from his mistakes.

But it's boring when there's no one to root against. Luckily we have Bubba.

I'd love to get more of this. Much better than the commentators yapping for four hours.

Just watched it. Definitely like it. I remember a few years back the NHL announcers went on strike so we got hockey with no commentary, just amped on ice audio. It was AWESOME!

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Be careful what you wish for. They had Bubba miced up in the Grand Slam of Golf in 2012, and he whined his way through the round. By the end of the round it was like listening to nails being dragged across a blackboard. Even Harrington began to grate.

Gary Woodland -7 through 9 holes. Good to see, he kind of faded into obscurity after the first couple months.

All is well until he flubs two chips and 3 putts from 15 feet.

hahaha, very true.

About the mic thing, I'd also enjoy that more often. In fact I wouldn't mind Bubba mic'd up more often. It'd be nice to show everyone how much of a whiner he is.

The way Kirk has played with McIlroy the last two days, you have to think he's raised Watson's eyebrows a little bit. Probably not enough, but a good showing by the kid nonetheless.

Haha...well, I don't mind Bubba's "whining." I'd rather listen to him whine than read people's online whining about his whining lol.

Everyone in contention right now is fairly lackluster. Henley is kind of fun to watch, fast/aggressive player.

Horschel is a pretty decent guy. That's about all I can say haha.

Not sure how many of you follow baseball, but I'm a Tampa Bay Rays fan and can't help but see a similarity between Mr. Kirk and Brad Boxberger, the Rays reliever/closer:

Kirk is boring. But good for him. Nice victory. Was rooting for Henley; I like watching him play.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
