Coming Sunday afternoon, there might be tougher challengers than Conners. You got Rose, Snedeker, Casey and Reed up there.

I actually started liking him more since the "incident."   For me, he was hard to like when he was Mr. Perfect.  But when his wife attacked him with a golf club and it all came out about the numerous

Tiger needs to make that or Conners bogey 18 to get in the final group tomorrow. Unless Snedeker makes something happen from a difficult spot.

Connors continued to play well today and still holds the lead after 54 holes. Several right behind trying to take make their move.

There'll be pars when you are done

Don't you shank no more

Conners used the force to move the ball there.

First round: 9/18 GIR.
Second round: 11/18 GIR.
Third round: 14/18 GIR.
Fourth round: ???

8/13 fairways today and again scrambling really well. He does lose a few off the tee here and there, but manage to avoid too much trouble with only the single bogey.

?

The wind off his putter?

I didn’t like the rule but I can see the argument. In that case the old rule wouldn’t have penalized him either. He didn’t cause it to move.

I know this has been argued to death over what that means. My view would be that He swing past the ball, the ball moved...i.e., cause and effect. But I'm no expert and clearly the PGA tour isn't going to take my opinion into consideration...which is probably a smart thing

That's not really cause and effect. One thing happened and another thing also happened. That's coincidence.

The replays clearly show his putter doesn't touch the ball at all.

I don't see how swinging past the conclusively ball caused it to move.

It’s certainly possible that he caused the ball to move but I would say the weight of the evidence is firmly against that conclusion. The ball moved towards him, for crying out loud.

The “weight of the evidence” was last year’s rule. :-) Or the year before…?

I'm glad they changed that rule. It wasn't a very good one.

I checked if Conners is related to Jimmy Conners that's a no if anyone was wondering, obviously the media would let us know about it if so, but it just took a minute why not.

The different spelling may be a hint that they aren't related. :-)

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Doh, right, Connors. Man it's been awhile since I've thought about that guy. Time flies.

I think tiger posts a solid -3/-4 tomorrow and finishes top 3. Weather is supposed to be crap in the morning but fine by the time he tees off. Someone will go low and win whether it be Connors or Sneds who knows?

      Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress.

      Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20.

      Best Shot of the Week

      Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!

      Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
