Rory said Jordan would falter?

And I wouldn't bet on him at Augusta either, but then again, I wouldn't be on Rory either.

So far in 2016:  Rickie has had a win and a 2nd (lost playoff).  Jordan has a win.  Rory has two top-5s.

It's only the 2nd week of March.  I wouldn't write off the season yet.

Bowditch with a 12:35 start time today - what say you O/U 79.5 (he currently is riding a 5 round streak of 80 or worse)

I'm going to take under

He's going to keep the streak alive.

Now at +4, and a shot behind Bowditch (I'm pretty sure it is my fault; I started him on my fantasy team)

providing further evidence that I should never take fantasy golf serious at all, today my team includes Webb Simpson +6 for the round .
(not quit a Bowditch effort, but I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that Bowditch might be the least chosen player in fantasy golf for few weeks)

Spieth just inside the cut line with 8 to play.

Bowditch might have been an okay pick for Doral because he's long, but not Copperhead. He drives it all over the place.

Valspar being held 2 miles from my house. Planning on going tomorrow, but have seen some PGA Tour stars out and about at restaurants in the area. Some of the encounters:

1) Saw Boo Weekley last night at Wing House. Guy was hammered...and I mean hammered. Asked him how he did and his response was "I played like dog shit." Tried to talk to him a little more but he was a bit stand-off'ish. Then watched him walk out and wobble around. Was with Chad Campbell and a couple other golfers I didn't really recognize.

2) Saw Vijay Singh at Wing House as well. Didn't get a chance to talk to him.

3) Saw Graham DeLaet. Was with a hottie and I went up to him and shook his hand and had a brief convo with him.

Graeme Delaet is absolutely rockin' that beard. I hope he keeps it.

I totally agree. Nice change from the uniformity of the Tour.

 

Also, what the flying flock of seagulls is wrong with Will Mackenzie's ears??

I keep expecting small birds to fly out of it.

On my way to the tourney today. Really surprised they didn't move up tee times. Gonna try and find out why. Heavy storms expected in the afternoon. Could be a Monday finish which would bum me out bc I can't go tomorrow.

[Jakester23]

Jordan is going to have to get going if he want to repeat. 

[Broke100Once]

Hopefully my fellow Canadian DeLaet can break through for his first win.

Wow...his putting has been piss poor. Just atrocious. Just goes to show that good ball striking will still get you on the leader board despite bad putting.

Quite surprised by Schwartzel not choking today as per ...
