Is Bubba advertising Gatorade on his shoes?  It looks like Gatorade logo.

Azalea, for Augusta. Not a great look tho...

What is Tiger Woods's profession? Answer: he is an entertainer. That's how he makes his living. The entertainment he provides is playing golf, very well. Somehow, society has determined that playing g

Great birdie attempt by Justin on #2. 

Did Rahm sleep last night?  He looks like he's taking a nap on the first tee.

I love so much about Augusta and the Masters, but I hate the pretentious term 'patrons' and the amount the commentators over-use it. They are fans, like at every other event - stop it.

Whenever I get annoyed about that, I just watch the broadcast and remember that the same aura of pretentiousness is also why nobody is yelling "mashed potatoes" on frigging tee shots.

I'll take that trade-off any day.  ;-)

Let's start a petition to get those terms into every other tournament.  We can make an exception for #16 at TPC Scottsdale. 

Eagle for Tiger!!!  :-)

Indeed, Tiger has played the par-5s today in -5.

Rory must have gotten first tee jitters. 

Nice to see my golf game shares something in common with Rory's. :ninja:

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂
