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

Jason Day seems like a really cool guy too. I think I have a man crush on him.

Jason Day is in a zone on 11, 12, 13. Gorgeous to watch. Lotsa man-crushes happening, I'd venture a guess.

Actually anti-climactic! The first view of it looked like it was further down a steep cliff.

One of the top 5 best swings on the tour is what I think.

I don't think that highly of it but I do like it. Not a Harmon fan, but I was impressed.

But you could've two-putted and tied Kuch. :beer:

I was really hoping he'd sink that.

That Henley dude has highlights in his hair. It's not 1995 dude.

:offtopic:

1995 was a pretty cool year, though.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
