I agree that the caddie isnt always blameless, but in the particular case of the 17th yesterday, what would you have expected the caddie to have said/done? As someone mentioned earlier, Tiger had the

Some low scores today.  Looks like Rory will not be one of them.  I hope between Rory and Tiger, one of them prevails on Sunday.

DJ and Simpson both had 17 GIRs today :-O

Simpson's average driving distance was 270 where DJ's was 310. Yeesh. 

Will be interesting to see how some of these guys with afternoon tee times do.

The Tiger, Phil, Rickie group is not making anything happen yet.

The leaders found most of their birdies on the back nine, so they can turn it around there.

Wow! What a blow up for Phil! Great to see so many ties at the top. Poor Sergio..17 has a mental effect on him. Stricker? Sorry...for me he’s a total bore. The whole ‘I’m retiring, no, just cutting back, no gonna play more’ real nice guy I’m sure but it’s like watching a claims adjuster give a PowerPoint. Some careless errors by Tiger but not bad. Hope they toughen the course up. I’m not a fan of   those -20+ tournaments.

So does that eagle mean Woods' eagleless streak is over?

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

      @DeadMan, I think your approach makes sense. As @dennyjones said, consistency is the key.

      Day 204 (22 Nov 24) - Weekly men’s group round today.  Temps in the upper 40’s, WNW winds 5-15mph - was the old man in the foursome (next youngest is my junior by 10yrs) - held my own against them.  Iron play getting more consistent -seeing predictable ball flights and distances. While the consistency coming around still had sone solid negatives as I had two dbls and one triple. On the plus side - eight pars and one birdie.

      I don't think anyone will really care.   It's your call.  Just be consistent.

      Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though.
