Reading up on him today. Yeah. Defintely rooting for the guy now. Not a BB watcher so never heard of him.

I was going to have Finau round out my 'three" but decided against it...

Side note, I don't think Matt Jones' wife is wearing a bra today...

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

We are seeing so many new golfers like Tony Finau and Anirban Lahiri ... Tiger effect?

And I agree Tony Finau is not really a late bloomer.

Just had a look at look at the flyover videos on the website,looks fantastic. Watch out for Kaymer on this one.

He's a class act. I think This Major will go to Day or Rose.

Damn! Schwartzel almost a two...walks away with four :-(.

Schwartzel has so much talent but his putting is absolutely horrid. It's kept him from winning so much more.

Do you think Tiger is done with his career?

He's not done playing golf, but I think he is done as far as winning majors and contending in majors. Its the Tiger effect, he set the bar so high that now you are seeing all these good young golfers come after him.

Strange leaderboard. While you have you have a few big boys up there, you've also got a lot of "Where the heck did they come from" guys, a real "where did he come from guy" leading.

I never was a big Tiger fan...I'm 46, so I've watched him play since he turned pro. Having said that, I would never wish ill on anyone, so I never rooted against him. I think it's sad the way his game is in the toilet. But with all of the new and up and coming players, it's easy to watch fabulous golf!

PGA is the worst of the majors. I make sure I have second screen viewing or record it. Continuously Broadcasting S**T. Another commercial? I'm done.

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

      Hey, thanks for the feedback. I do lift weights but I’m also adding yoga or Pilates for mobility and flexibility to my routine.

      Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.

      PING G425 9 Iron Rattle/Noise

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.

      Maintaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
