I'm pulling for Russell Henley, that's just all there is to it!

I keep thinking he's Stuart Appleby, who coincidentally played on the PGA Tour in 1995.

Right, that's why he finished runner-up in a playoff the last time this tournament was played here.

Jordan Spieth went to Catholic School and graduated from a prep school and has probably been a wonderkid in golf ever since his talents were recognized as a kid. Richard Sherman is from Compton

Can I have some of what you are smoking? He looks nothing like Stuart Appleby, not even close.

Floppy blond hair and a visor. He's not Appleby's doppelgänger but he shares a resemblance in my book.

Man these guys are tearing this place up. Guess I called it right after Spieths round that he would be somewhere around 5th-10th place by day's end and a few shots behind. Dustin Johnson struggling though. Did not see this coming this early.

Par 4 18th is playing to over 4.6 average today.

Par 5 16th is playing to under 4.6 average today.

When Kuchar bogeyed 18, the commentator said he "stumbled."  Not really, the field is playing it closer to 5 than 4!

Exactly! :beer: Face is different, but I've done a double-take from a distance a couple times.  I was mainly joking because of the reference to 1995 though. I'm pretty sure he was playing then.

I don't recall Appleby's hair being floppy. Henley has a grunge surfer look going on. When did Appleby have that look ?

Jesus....I need to work by butt off to get better and make the Tour. I'm better looking than most of these guys and can't get anything close to the women they're shagging. Jesus. Matt Jones isn't much of a golfer and is getting that??

Yep. The announcers were ribbing each other off camera about her and you know it.

It's almost as if... people date other people... for more than their looks...

      A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.

      Womens League .Golf Top Level Domain Name

      By iacas ·

      I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
