Just dawned on me after, Nobilo made a comment about a "different energy" in the final group, that with Tiger in the field, I think a strong argument can be made that it's EASIER for the newbie in the final group because his crowds will be undoubtedly smaller than they would otherwise be if Tiger wasn't here.  It'll have a little more of a "weekday" or "web.com" feel that might keep him more comfortable.

Yeah, but at the same time, the crowds right in FRONT of him are big, and they'll often be moving around, etc. He's only one group back. If Tiger was four groups ahead, I think you'd have a stronger case.

What does that have to do with golf? 

Nothing, but the holier-than-thou types care about that stuff. And whatever, to each their own. I've tried not to care too much about the lives of sports people outside of sports. I don't look at them as anything more than talented guys who often worked hard. I don't think they're good people because they can hit a baseball or throw a football or whatever.

I think they can be role models for working hard at something. But beyond that… nah.


In a span of two minutes, Tiger chips in, Brandt holes a putt, Rose flies in an eagle from the fairway, and someone else holes a long putt to get to -6. What a span of time there!

Definitely. Conners doesn't seem fased at all, he's holding it together quite nicely.

Tiger definitely still moves the needle for me.  Only he, Phil, and Rory would make me alter the structure of my day like has happened last weekend and this weekend.

I can see that - good point. At this point, Tiger doesn't him to fall back any more...he's making his own way

What does that have to do with golf? 

Ask Marty2019, he's the one that brought it up; left a huge matsa ball out there that he had to know someone would respond to.

Carry on my wayward drive

There'll be pars when you are done

Lay your weary wedge to rest

Don't you shank no more

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
