If Spieth ever gets chased down his driveway by his girlfriend/wife who is wielding a golf club then we know he's made it big. :-P

I like the fact that he knows how to win.

Plus he killed it with , what, $55 million last year. Not bad for a third year on the job

No way. Coca Cola was not invented until the 1800s.  ISIS was way,way back.

Well, we can all say it's officially over for Spieth because he's gonna gain 25 pounds from drinking too much of the stuff while endorsing it, lose his swing, his weight will yo-yo and he'll never get his swing back.

:-P

Rory Mcilroy is like, yo, Pepsi, where's my deal?

Aw, Nevets, didn't think you'd go there.  :-(  I'm sad.

You can atone by posting a few Spieth is great tweets from the glitterati, if you'd like.  :-) I would be happy.

We will soon see. I was travelling on business and got home when he was on 14. Before I saw the score they said he had 23 putts through 13 holes. I knew then it wasn't good, and it got worse. He almost missed that last putt on 18 after 3 putting from about 10 feet, and they were bad misses. I think his game feeds off of his putting, not the other way around. They said he went straight to the range after the round, hopefully he went to the putting green as well. Maybe it is perception and I haven't looked at the stats, but his 2016 putting has not been what it was last year. I also think Kapalua maybe masked some of his issues with the wide fairways, but he did win by 8 or so. 

The new houses, sponsorships, $, attention...it has to affect you especially at 23 years old. He is no flash in the pan, he has shown too much talent since he was an amateur. I picked him to win a major or two this year on that other thread, but we will see how he copes with it all. I still think he will be the one of the big 3 to consistently dominate over the next 10-20 years, but there may be a delay in that while life settles down.

He'll bounce back for sure. He might have a difficult period or even season perhaps, but he's only 23... please let him :)

Feel bad for him regarding his receding hair line.  He's obviously super-self-conscious about it cuz he can often be seen trying to fix his thinning hair on top.  Yikes, and he's only 22.

    • Day 4 (24 Jun 26) - Played the mid-week shootout - iffy day on putts as I had 35 and of late been in the upper 20's.   Greens recently verti-cut and they are a bit bump and long haired - no excuses as I need to learn to trust making the proper adjustments.   Overall a decent day with some solid long game shots.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
