A "Maltese Falcon"?

It's when you think you're picking up a birdie and walk away with a bogey.

 

I'm not sure, given where Rory played his third from, that he thought he'd make birdie, but I don't think he saw three-putt as a likely outcome either.  But it's a great golf term!

Jason Day makes 4 the hard way on 13, and he's back to even par.

Nantz mentioned Matsu finished behind Patrick Cantlay for low amateur in his first Masters. I haven't heard that name in a while.

I feel like Rory is just making stupid decision after stupid decision. They both hit a bad shot, but because Jordan hit 3W, he's fine and can slice away to safety again. Rory's striking it better, but just gets like a bull to a red rag at times.

Edit: then again, that's an absurdly good third shot...

Edited by b101

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

Oh my shit. Jordan Spieth your ability irritates me. Wake up Rory! You spend 7hrs a day at the gym compared to Jordan's 15 minutes and he is better than you right now. Wake the hell up.

Side note: Cantlay's caddy just died recently by a hit and run driver while he was a pedestrian. He was like 24; real sad.

The Maltese Falcon (I'd give it a birdie)  is an example of a tv/movie/fiction trope - the MacGuffin.

Rory does have better pecs than Jordan, I give him credit for that.

Totally irrelevant to golfing ability, though.

I'm not a fan of laying up on reachable par-5s, but it's hard to argue with Jordan's result a moment ago on #8.

Chekhov's gun would like it someone was playing really well, but not scoring, but then eventually goes on a birdie run.

I'll take "Literary references in golf" for a thousand please, Alex. :-P

What an amazing two-putt by Jordan at #9. 

... and Smylie Kaufman makes a great approach (hole #14)

      The Ryder Cup Ticket Prices

      By Beastie ·

      It’s not live on free to air tv in the UK, and hasn’t been since 1995. ( I pay a subscription to Sky for generally good golf coverage). There are limited highlights on the BBC for some golf events, but that’s it. Are other/all PGA events on NBC?  Allowing ticket scalping is a systemic failure across sports and showbiz, which could be legislated against, but in the UK is not in any meaningful way. I don’t know much about the secondary market in the US or anti scalping measures.  Charging more to keep prices down is an interesting concept, in practice no doubt you are right even if It sounds a bit Catch 22  Do you think sports tickets and broadcast rights  should be sold on a purely capitalist basis, or is there an argument to say that some sports might benefit more from wider exposure and affordable access. ( golf in the US is apparently not one of these if tickets sold out at those prices so quickly)  Fans might benefit from cheaper tickets and in the UK at least, TV coverage that reaches a wider audience.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 216 (4 Dec 24) - Dink and roll Weds - working on the green side short game covering 5-10 yd chips to low running pitches to about 50 yds (I have accommodating neighbors).  Focused on keeping stance more narrow, eye target about 2” in front of the ball AND not looking up until I see the ball leave.  This drill has really enhanced my confidence in making more consistent ball strikes.
