Rory will need a birdie-birdie finish or he'll miss the cut. And even with that he's still not save...

That is pretty sick for DJ 3 putting from 8 ft.

No love for Brendan Steele?

He went birdie, birdie, birdie, birdie yesterday and was stopped after four holes.  That had to hurt, he was in the zone.

Good to see Phil playing well. And last week we had Singh and Goose turning back the clock, this week we've got Paddy. These old guys ain't dead yet.

I was there Friday. Weather sucked, but amazing to see the players and their golf from up close. Just mind blowing to see how well they strike the ball. They are in complete control and balance with beautiful tempo. Distances are off the charts. Lots of draw ball flights.

Lol @ 10% shooting under 80.

I think a couple of those votes may have been Rory and tiger ... And I still think it's laughable.

The weather really messed up this tournament. Pretty much all of the big names missed the cut, 36 hole finish tomorrow...about the only good thing I can say is that someone is probably going to earn his ticket to the Masters this weekend.

They really blew the weather forecast or just were too optimistic on GC.  It will be interesting to see who handles playing 36 holes the best as it's going to be a long day.

GC Morning Drive was really talking up Patrick Reed this morning.  I guess with Rory out of it and Phil being so inconsistent this year, Reed is the guy that's going to get the hype.  Reed moves the needle a bit in that he's controversial so it makes sense to push him given the current leaderboard.

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
