Let's see if he can improve on the triple from yesterday.

I hope so, but he started the hole the same way he did yesterday (big ol' drive in the middle of the fairway).

I missed Sectionals by 2 strokes this year.  I summarized my round here, if you or anyone is interested. June 4th is the day for Sectional Qualifying this year.  I'm not sure how many of the 500

This is kind of neat...each of the top 9 finishers had a final score (over par) that was equivalent to their finishing position:

Maybe not. That's a lousy shot from 156 on the fairway.

That Tiger approach was the first time I've ever regretted seeing shot tracer. Yeesh, that was ugly.

Double both days.  I haven't heard this many doubles since the Bill Swerski show.

That's a triple and double on the hole ranked 15. He might be heading for an early exit.

Blow up the 1st hole, Woods makes triple bogey/double bogey = +5. That's half of his total of +10

Starting to look like Woods might have a short week.

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

It seems like he didn't understand how his ball didn't draw back when there was a strong left to right wind. Also, why his ball ended up right of the green on #11 with another strong left to right wind.

That's fourth year physics. 🙄

It will be interesting to see how the drivable par-3 behaves today.

I thought all par 3's were considered drivable; at least for tour players.

Nice drive by Tiger on #3.  The comeback begins?

A better putt by Dufner than it will appear to audiences.  A little over 70' out, has a makeable next one.

A par.  At least it's better than the alternatives.  Okay Tiger, five birdies and an eagle and you're right back in the mix.

Safely on the green on #4.  Has a better chance at birdie than from off the green. 

Wow, Dufner made a non-trivial putt. Evidently he does so more than short ones I hear.  Reminds me of the stat I read last night about the time Justin Leonard led in 5' and 7' putts but was last in 6' putts.

Harmon is a great instructor, a smart guy, but man, enough of these interviews.

One of the first golf books I had was one of Harmon's.  It was something like Four Fundamentals of Winning Golf and I don't know where the book is at this point.  But the cover advertised that it included his work with Greg Norman, Davis Love III, and U.S. Amateur champion Tiger Woods.

Always like big name golf tournaments where some of the bigger names in golf are humbled. Going to be tough on some of them to make the cut.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By WillieT ·

      26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
