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

I find it very strange -  and I doubt that I'm the only one -  that you seem to see anything that Woods does as a personal victory for you when it doesn't live up to the hopes of others. My hunch is t

Reed has enough holes to stay in the lead.  Wins by 2.

My thoughts as well. Two par fives when he's just dodged trouble on one of them, as well. Barring some sort of meltdown, I reckon it's still his.

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

I gotta say, Rory has looked uninspired all day. You're not always going to have a day like Spieth is having, and sometimes you just don't have your A game, but he's just looked flat.

#17 without the Eisenhower Tree still looks weird to me.

I don't really like Spieth but I dislike Reed even more. Spieth's round has been incredible. 

Pretty much how I feel about them, too.

Hasn't he just. I think that first tee shot really unsettled him - he's been losing the driver right a lot. I've followed him really closely all week and I don't think enough's been made of just how much he's leant on his short game. His chips from around the green have been excellent, but he's never going to be someone who constantly nails 7 footers. He just hasn't found his rhythm at all though with his swing.

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

This, too.

He got a reprieve on one and since he missed that short putt on 2, he's been very uneven and seems, for the most part, playing without much passion.

Reed must have some of Fred Couples's luck, only on #13. 

Spieth with an amazing putt at #16. 

Spieth is trying to combine '86 and '75.  What a putt and what a comeback.

If he were to come back and win it, what would be brilliant is that it would be all him playing well and not Patrick Reed blowing it.

      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.
