Duval dropped a couple shots. Hope he can make them back up. It would be awesome to see him finish at 8 under or better, with the conditions... Maybe a top 20 or top 15

Callaway XR 9.5 + 1, Taylormade R15 3 Wood, Burner 3 Rescue, Callaway XHot 5H, Warbird 4H, Nike Vapor Fly 6-AW Irons, Titleist Vokey 54, 60 Wedges, Taylormade Rossa Fontana Putter, Srixon Z-Star Tour Yellow.

Best Score 2017:  82 (Traditions at the Glen, Par 70)

Favorite Course - Conklin Players Club (Par 72) - Best Score 86

Ben Martin's wife is not at the British Open, and the reason will make you laugh.  From golfdigest.com. http://www.golfdigest.com/blogs/the-loop/2015/07/ben-martins-wife-is-not-at-the.html

Much worse than that. I was me hitting the shots. 1968.

Wacko Zacko needs some love. He's tied for the lead, and I didn't even notice.

My second and third contest picks are doing better than my first pick. That's crazy.

I start to like Garcia's chances more and more. Will he finally win a major?

No.

I think the one prediction I made that will hold up is that about 8 or 9 years ago I said Sergio would never win a major. I got nervous back in 2008 or whatever, but… that was about it.

Five-way tie for the lead. If this were a NASCAR race, amulti-car pile up would be inevitable. People have to start cracking.

Wacko Zacko will have five feet for the outright lead (assuming no one gets to 14-under first). And he does it.

Ouch. Harrington just drove it into the gorse bush. That'll either be a lost ball or an unplayable.

With Zach and Spieth up there with a shot to win, everyone will be skipping the Scottish next year and play the John Deere.

      10 Biggest Swing Killers (AMG)

      By DrMetal · Posted

      At address, I started to lean the shaft of my irons forward.  This immediately resulted in better compression and more distance (add some 10-15 yards on each iron). Feels great, feels like I'm make better contact.  But I'm also pulling it, it's going dead left.  When I examined my club face at address, with the shaft leaned forward, I can see that it's closed, so it makes sense that I'm pulling it.   So it seems that leaning the shaft forward at address inadvertently closes the face.  Is this true?  If so, and if you insist on leaning the shaft forward like this, can/should you just correct by also opening the face a little at address?

      LIV Golf Now Closed?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Rahm agrees to a deal with the DP World Tour.  Jon Rahm Agrees Deal With DP World Tour In Breakthrough Over Ryder Cup Future | Golf Monthly The LIV Golfer has been given a conditional release by the DP World Tour to play in conflicting tournaments on the circuit for the remainder of the season Currently, he is under contract with LIV. This seems like a move by him to secure the Ryder Cup spot, and hedge if LIV dies.

      Bailey Shoemaker's Pre-Shot Routine at ANWA

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Yeah.. for golfers like this Hick's law is real and a b**ch. Induces paralysis that hits crescendo causing a freeze every time they 'gather up' to pull the trigger. There's cognitive therapy if it's bad enough.

      Width at P4 Has Downstream Effects on P6 and P7

      By saevel25 · Posted

      At some point, the golfer is going to have to retrain their timing. When I exaggerate the right elbow stuff, I find myself at the P4 being like, "Uhhh, when does the downswing start." I am just hanging out at P4 for eternity because my backswing is usually like half a second longer. Half a second in the backswing feels like forever. Your tempo might be like 5:1 not 3:1. A 3:1 tempo is going to be very quick. It might be you need to speed up the backswing.
