So no doubt 20-under is in play and the PGA doesn't care about how easy this course will play. I mean you've four par-5s, all reachable, and today you've got 3 par-4s that are reachable. We may see history today if someone gets hot.

I quite like that they're still happy to make it scoreable rather than trick the course up. If it starts blowing hard later then it's more of a challenge, but good to see that they don't mind someone winning by going low.

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

What's in the bag: Callaway X2 Hot Driver, Titleist 915F 3 wood, X2 Hot 3 Hybrid, 3, 5-AW Apex Pro irons, 54*, 58* Cleveland RTX, Odyssey Versa 1 Putter

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

Utterly ridiculous drive from Bubba as well... 398 yards and through the green

LOL @ Bubba' s tee shot on a 400+ yard Par 4 rolling throw the green and ending up behind the flag.

Still got soft greens, rough is only bad if you get unlucky, but most places you're lucky. We may see history today if someone gets hot.

I understood your par 5 reachable comment, but what do you mean by 3 par 4s are reachable? Aren't par 4s always reachable in 2? Edit: Ok, I take it back if bubba is getting it past the green on the drive

Seriously.

I forget who posted it after his round on Day 1 but I guess they were right when they said even though Dustin's was off to a fast start that he wasn't going to win..

Haha, well, I guess then others would agree with me that he just doesn't seem to be a mentally strong player

Like so: [quote name="Yukari" url="/t/83371/2015-pga-championship-at-whistling-straits-discussion-thread/160_40#post_1183968"]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. [/quote][quote name="RJH999" url="/t/83371/2015-pga-championship-at-whistling-straits-discussion-thread/160_40#post_1183969"] No, probably not.[/quote][quote name="RJH999" url="/t/83371/2015-pga-championship-at-whistling-straits-discussion-thread/160_40#post_1184076"] -Tiger played like dogshit. -DJ jumps out to a lead that he will inevitably blow. -Mark Brooks shot 107. -The Mechanic bogeyed his first four holes. -Danny Lee shot 68. -Rory, Spieth playing just so-so. -John Daly outplayed Tiger. -Tiger played like dogshit.[/quote] :-P

I think I've posted this somewhere before but before he won two major's this year, before he finished second in the Masters last year, before he won the his first tournament in 2013, TGC and the announcers were sweating him really hard.  It's like, how how many times do I have to hear how old he is or how he's golf's savior?  So, like @RJH999, it's made me not want to root for him.

His results this year are amazing and, as such, he's going to get a bunch of media attention and it's merited but I really don't need to see them go goo goo gah gah over him.

Did you guys watch golf before Tiger cheated on his wife?  Every minute was about Tiger and how great he was, even when he wasn't playing in the tournament.  .

Bubba geometry.

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

      The Ryder Cup Ticket Prices

      By iacas ·

      First, it is on free TV. NBC is free to anyone with an antenna, and is on almost any TV in the U.S. with a minimal amount of effort. Charging "a bargain price" would be incredibly dumb. They charged $750 and the event sold out almost immediately. You could better argue they should have charged MORE, not less. What happens if you charge less: ticket scalpers buy up even more of the tickets because they see value: if tickets were $250, they'd clearly have sold for $1k or more on the secondary market. That's tremendous value. Fans would end up paying the same or more, or just not being able to go. Sure, a few who happened to be online at the precise moment on a fast connection and didn't fumble with their credit cards might have gotten tickets for $250, but the secondary market and ticket brokers would have scooped up the vast majority with automated processes and bots and scripts, then re-sold them later on. This way, fans get to purchase the tickets, and the PGA is earning that revenue, not the secondary ticket brokers. Econ 101. Supply and Demand. Nope.

      The Ryder Cup Ticket Prices

      By Beastie ·

      Edit - the link has no title, but basically Tiger wants $5 million for each US player to “donate to charity”   They could put the Ryder Cup on free to air tv, and charge the fans a bargain price to get in.  If you have to  give the players $60 million, that’s why the tickets are $750.

      Which Irons for Next Season

      By klineka ·

      P7TWs all day IMO. Especially because they're already fit for you. And it sounds like you have an interest in buying/selling so using the Vapor Pros would only decrease their value.
