Did Stenson seriously put that fairway bunker shot to 4 feet? Wow.

Both players in the final group make birdie on hole #1


He's been a machine this week. Unless he falls off unexpectedly, I don't see Hoffman keeping up with him.

I made a little highlights package from yesterday, no copyright notice yet. NBC doesn't do as many slow motion replays as CBS. And not as many shots. Most interesting slow motion is the driver against

The hole (#16) really isn't too terribly difficult for these guys......Arnie needs to lengthen or put some more fairway bunkers out there or narrow the fairways near the landing zone.....you can land 747s on Arnie's fairways they're so wide.  Currently the tee box is as far back as possible, but Arnie's got to be creative there - maybe build into that pond a bit not sure what else he can do.....

BTW, I really enjoy NBC's coverage over CBS.....I know Johnny Miller isn't well liked by many - but I'm a fan of his.

Boy, that McIlroy, he always had a big head.  :-) [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/content/type/61/id/116310/] [/URL]

I saw this. Had I not, I would swear it was photoshopped.

Seriously? I didn't know that, I really like the guy. He was at the Champions Tour event in MN last year and was just a class act. Took a ton of time to sign and take pictures with all these little kids. It was really cool.

I think I recall a lot of negative comments on this forum here

This made me laugh, had to take a screen shot. Not the scorecard, the picture they chose to use. The kid is just bursting with chew.

Morgan Hoffman, I like his stance and swing. Looks very athletic, or maybe that's just because he looks athletic...I don't know.

Also ya'll may remember him on the 17th at the Waste Management tournament in AZ...

      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?
