I think the media was too quick to start the Rory vs. Jordan conversation. My guess is Rory thought so too. Tomorrow Rory will turn up the heat.

Well the golf media really wants Speith to be the next Tiger as far as captivating fans.  Seems like a nice, mild mannered player who would get the good guy award every year if they had one so as to market the hell out of him.

I haven't taken a look at the stats, but Rory looked very VERY good. He looked like a player that could have easily shot -5 or -6 today. Just needed a couple more birdie putts to go in, and less hitting of sprinkler heads.

I'm stickin with my boy, smell a great round tomorrow. Although, Rory is just cruisin right now, could be the start of one of his streaks which should alarm the whole field.

Sorry for the multi-post, just saw this. I don't think they were quick at all. I projected this rivalry some time ago. Seems the media didn't jump on this story til Spieth hit #2, which was probably about right. Come June, I have a feeling there will only be 2 guys holding the current major trophies. Would be nice if it were 2-2 but I'd be happy with 3-1.

I doubt that is going to happen. Rory and Jordan are 1 & 2 right now but I don't think either is so much consistently greater than the field that so as to take all 4 Majors.

Well, it's a gut feeling, much like the one I had last night that Spieth would spank Rors today so it's pretty damn reliable.

Have a nice weekend Jordan.

Haha, he just needs a couple birdies to make the cut!

But yeah, Rory has kicked his arse thus far.

He has some serious frowny action after stubbing that chip. YIPS!

Too bad would have been nice to see him with the leaders.

Rory McIlroy. -4

Jordan Spieth. +3 (MC)

Rory wins the 2 round pairing, and also outshines Jordan in hair at 21 years old. Funny quote below the pic.

I have absolutely no logical reasoning for this, but seeing Rory with a Titleist makes me smile. Wish he was still rocking the Titleist gear.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Mr. Desmond

Fatigue finally caught up with Jordan -- not the same player we've seen.

It was only a matter of when, not if.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By billchao ·

      My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.

      Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.

      Spark League at Severna Park Golf

      By Paloma ·

      Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area?

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
