From what I've seen I am pretty sure Kuchar would whoop Berger on the tennis court.

I used to live in Delray Beach, FL. Great little tournament. Nice little town. Great local Donald Ross (9 of the 18 holes anyway) course too.

I gave up tennis as a teenager (number one on my HS team) and took up golf back in the 80s'. Seemed that golf was becoming the game to play -  now I'm back to tennis (4.0 NTRP). I haven't touched a golf club for nearly a year after playing nearly continuously (except while in Afghanistan) for 30 yrs.   I knew that Nicklaus, Kuchar, Garcia played.  I was always concerned that one sport would ruin the other - but probably isn't true. I think Sampras and Lendl play golf now -

I'm headed down to the Miami Open next week after watching the Tampa Tourney last week, Arnie's tourney this week.....what a life as a spectator, huh?

Anyway, thanks for the video.  Berger's game needs a little work though -

Sergio has a good game...

Garcia looks like one of those guys who get good at every sport they try, fast. There are lots of natural athletes on tour but he looks a tad more athletic than most, have seen his football vids, I dunno if he played any junior tennis, but looks pretty good in the video.

      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?
