Yeah, he's not winning. And I called that (in texts) before he started playing today, so… oh well. Bummer.

Of the remaining nobodies and nearly-nobodies, I don't know if I care who wins.


I did not have you labeled, as someone who would call a player making a living on the PGA tour a nobody. I guess I'm wrong again. Plenty of decent names in there.

And TW finds himself outside the top 10.. Did the pressure get to him? Did he start thinking what if? There is still time though on the back 9 if he remembers what he was doing the first 3 rounds..

It's all relative. Jim Herman? Nobody… compared to the top guys on the PGA Tour, almost none of whom are at this event.

And yet Jim Herman is one of the best 200 or 300 or so golfers in the world.

Better not to "label" people, or at least to consider the context…

Just curious, are you one of the best 200 or 300 golf instructors in the world? Or would you be considered a nobody in the golf instructors world?

Easily.

Now, back to the topic.

Tiger seriously needs to stop taking the club back so steeply. That pitch looked like he got way too steep then ended up trying to save it and he flipped at the ball. You could see he didn't pivot well on that pitch.

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
