This is the week before the Player's Championship tournament. It usually has a good field as players want to fine tune there game for next week's tournament. Rory is the defending champion.

I don't know why, but I always think of this song when this tournament comes around. 

And now it is stuck in all of your heads! :-)

You're looking at the wrong rule.  This was intentionally striking his head.  The relevant rule is 4-3b: To answer questions about whether hitting yourself in the head with your putter could be

Looking forward to a good one after a few sleepy weeks since The Masters.  I rarely ever say this - but I pick Phil to win.  Lot of players coming into the week in good form and Phil is totally not on

I'm a moderate Phil fan and would be happy to see this but I think it's a stretch to think he'll win (or is due a win) this year. He hasn't won a tournament since the '13 Open and at his age, history

Looking forward to this week.  I have been going to the Wells Fargo Championship for every year except the very first year they had it.  Quail Hollow is truly a great course and just a solid track with no real gimmicks.  Next year it will be hosting the PGA Championship, and the Wells Fargo will be played in Wilmington.

 

I'll be at Quail Hollow Friday and Sunday, hoping for a great tournament.  My pick to win this week: Kevin Kisner.

Cool. If you have a chance to post some pictures, that would be nice too!

Rory's 62 on Sunday in 2010 remains the greatest round of golf I've ever seen. We haven't talked about him much in these forums lately; I expect that to change this week.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...

I agree with Chilli, Rory is going to be at the top of a leaderboard soon & he is very comfortable at Quail Hollow. I see him as my pick this week

I thought it was a 61?

Rory shot 61 here last year, but that round wasn't as spectacular as his final round in 2010.

Ah, gotcha. That incredible though, to have a 61 and a 62 on one course.

He hasn't won a tournament since the '13 Open and at his age, history would tell us that it's far from a sure thing that he'll ever win again on tour. I think/hope he's got a couple good runs left in him, but just saying that when we're talking about an almost 46 year old, we can't take anything for granted.

Stop confusing things with facts and reality, lol.  Phil for the win!

      Day 172: mirror work for a while during SNF. Working on cleaning up the early backswing stuff. Definitely seeing the improvements I’m looking for.

      Day 97 - 2025-01-05 Showed up to something that absolutely floored me, and then was busy right through to 9:00. So, I got 5:00 in at night, at home, before bed. My rib cage hurts from a cough (ha ha, but also, f***), and I think I have a mild ear infection in my right ear. Things are just f***ing great.

      Record 35 Under Par for First Contest of the Year

      By saevel25 ·

      OMG Jerry Barber shot -20 back in 1960! Let's go back and time and bitch about how easy it is to play golf. My goodness, Calvin Pete shot a -21 in 1986! Wait a second, David Duval shot -26 back in 1999! Hold up, Ernie Els shot a -31 back in 2003!!!!  (all scores at The Sentry, it is a very easy golf course for PGA Tour players).  The concept that golf in the past is this protecting par or what not is just romanticized BS. Golfer's have been tearing apart golf courses for decades. Let's have a sense of perspective to base our opinions, ok?
