Man, does DJ have a nice swing or what..

He does for sure. Actually I can't get enough of Shane Lowry's swing. So much stability for a big guy and and so smooth!

Spent yesterday at Chambers Bay. What a fantastic course, just stunning to behold and looks like so much fun to play. I will have to play it in a season or two when I'm ready. I have to say that there

Go Luiten! Top 3 now... interesting to see how he'll manage it.


Bogey after finding a grenade bunker on the 7th, the most difficult hole on the course. He seems to be putting well though, all lag putts to within 4 feet. Hope he keeps it up.

Both are very smooth. Would love to hit like that. Not to mention get the distance Finau has going for him.

Might be the fairway is slightly tilted to the right that causes them to push it that way, or cause a cut shot. It might just be hard for them to start it enough left. I am not sure getting stuck in that tall fescue on the left is a good place to be.

Jordan hit a hard hook that ran left nearly into the rough and still ended up down in the collection area. That's just an impossible shot in the afternoon.

I don't imagine more than normal: they wouldn't qualify to win.

An unscrupulous business owner could pre-date receipts, I guess, if the only contest rules required a purchase before Thursday.

      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.
