I don't agree with you on much, but I do agree with this. Langer absolutely does NOT pass the smell test with me.

 

Wearing my new spikes on the couch waiting for the coverage to start. LOL…

Putt on 1st shows DJ is clearly not as good a reader of greens as Spieth & Day.

I bet most of his SG putting is from shorter range tending to power putts through the break. Plus his proximity from ballstriking likely gives him a lot  of looks from his playing partners to 'go to school' on.

I wouldn't say that, I think it's just a tough green to read. It was a double breaker also. Day missed it by a decent amount on the other side.

Dustin didn't see which break would predominate. Day lagged it much closer - 2ft vs 5 ft. Big difference adding up hole by hole at Augusta.

Matsuyama nervous?  Standing over second shot on #1, lift club set down, lift club set down... repeat.  Not as bad as Sergio a few years ago at the Open, but bad.

Like I said, tough putt to read. Dustin putted first so of course Day got info from it.

Jordan looked a bit nervous over his opening tee shot, too. 

and the Old Man bogeys the opening hole.

Maybe, but I think Day was already way left of where DJ started his putt, and think Day is just generally stronger at green reading.

 

And another bit of exceptional luck for Rory finding and hitting his ball out of the bushes. Took bogey, but it could have been so much worse.

Rory's smile on his way out of the bushes looked like "I was just in there to take relief before playing my provisional... why are you cheering?"

If I take nothing else away from watching this tournament, at least I can realize that I'm not cool enough to wear white pants.

Wow, Dustin's over the green.  I was surprised he was hitting driver, not because he was trying to drive the green, but because I agree -- too much.  Didn't he drive a par-4 with an iron in the Open a few years ago (Pebble, IIRC, not final round)?

      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.
