Missed on my prediction. Enjoyable tournament. Glad Tampa got a good finish again (good finishes over the last couple of years, if I recall correctly) - and a the future and now current star of the PGA tour as its winner.....Tiger never played in this tournament....maybe today's winner will continue to play the tourney out of loyalty.

Was at the tournament today. I am literally walking distance from Innisbrook and it was an awesome finish. Despite the ratings being low because of no Tiger, the tournaments this year have been spectacular. Unbelievable finishes and great leaderboards. Lot of star power up there. The last 4 weeks you've had four of the best finishes you'll see. Great stuff. Hopefully this is a pre-cursor for a great Masters because last year was a bit 'blaah'.

O'Hair really could have benefited most with a win yesterday -  kind of disappointed that he couldn't convert on his opportunity - hopefully he'll get a chance again in the future.

You know Arnie's happy about his grandson's play recently - very proud, I'm sure.

That was a really entertaining finish. Great golf all around down the stretch.

Indeed, fantastic Sunday. Congrats to Jordan Spieth. Jordan + Reed will be the two young guys that can give Rory the fits.

Took me a minute to figure out that trophy.  At first sight i was sure it was an old straight razor strop. But why?

Given the sponsor i can now see what is probably depicted.

Where/when is the Sherwin-Williams tourney?

+1.  That last chip that Reed made out of the deep rough was sick.

Great tournament.

A lot of playoffs tis season. Great stuff. Yesterday was the best by far.

I was really pulling for O'Hair. He has a tough road back and a win would have gone a long way.

My kid started laughing when she saw his name - commented "really?  VJ?  Vee Jay Jay?"

I can't undo it now.   I see it every time.

"VJJ is playing a little tight today"

"VJJ needs to loosen up a bit"

and so forth

Good finish, though I don't get a great vibe from Reed (I don't like fat guys winning for some reason), but Jordan needed to make that last putt as Reed was going to hit a green at some point - impressive up and downs every time on the playoffs.  You just can't let Spieth have 3 birdie chances and keep up even with great chips and sandies.

Wow- missed that. You really think of Spieth like that. In my opinion you just missed two of the best American players in the game to watch what? Over-hyped college basketball tournament show? Got your priorities wrong, son.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      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.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      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?
