As bad as the tee shot was, that second shot was impressive.

Here's the poor tee shot

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

How so?

The line moves the more people bet on that outcome.

Common misconception. Vegas gambles too. There are plenty of times, for example in the NFL, where a line moves in the opposite direction. Vegas makes more than the vig.

Tiger struggling with <100 yards to get within 20 feet of hole. Not good for birdie ops

Do you think by this time next year the PGA will figure out that the "marquee group" that they should be showing is Johnson, Day and Fowler?

People want to see Tiger play, even if he is playing bad. I hope they do switch it though, I can't take the commentary after every bad shot. How come they are not showing all of Bradley's shots in slow motion with lines on his head, hips club. It's beyond annoying.

That's what I thought. Spiethismyhero has a strange thought process?

Patrick Reed has won 4 majors including 1 this year? Did I miss that? I guess so.

This is a thread about who is going to win the last major of the year. Patrick Reed fades in majors. Period. He'll fade again. The fact that he won 3 non-majors 2 years ago is completely irrelevant.

I don't understand your argument.  All they did was disagree with your assessment of Patrick Reed having already "faded away."  Why would one not having won 4 majors including one this year be proof that he has faded away?

Tiger is just not very good. It's odd to me that people still defend him at this point. What should we even consider mattering anymore? Tiger has set such a high standard. Being relevant on Sunday? At this point I'd just like to see him make a cut.

I've been saying all along that Tiger needs more tournament play.

He can't expect to just show up once in awhile and compete.

I hope he plays 20+ tournaments next year.  Wishful thinking...

I wonder if DJ can put it all together this week?

So far so good.  But then again he was good until the Sunday/Weekends at U.S. Open and the Open.

    • Day 149 - More slow rehearsals trying to get into a better impact position. 
    • Hi everyone, I'm looking to improve my driving distance. I’ve been playing golf for a few years now, and while my accuracy has gotten better, I’m still struggling to get the distance I want off the tee. I play regularly with both men and women, so any advice that applies to both would be fantastic. For some context, I’ve tried adjusting my stance and swing, but I feel like I might be missing some key golf techniques or drills. Has anyone here successfully increased their driving distance? What specific tips or changes worked for you? Whether it's about grip, posture, swing mechanics, or even mental approach, I’m open to all suggestions! Looking forward to hearing your experiences and advice! Thanks!
    • Day 159: 6/3/24 Stack Training Full Speed Spectrum session 20/24. Diagnosed with tennis elbow today. Finished 1 mph higher than last session.
    • I don't know… The TaylorMade Tiger Woods grinds were decent. I like narrow soles with a lot of bounce (lots of camber) and good heel/toe relief.
    • Day 33 (3 Jun 24) - In between working on my bass guitar and its wiring issues, I was able to take the putter and roll some putts on the carpet in the shop.  Spent time with the lead arm as I usually putt with it tucked close  and then doing the lead arm chicken wing.  Interesting how the feel and pace is different.  Had seen a fellow golfer using it last week when we were playing.  Overall it was good to do an easy day of putting for pace and overall distance control from 10' in.
