Man.. reading back through the thread, it’s understandable how my thread starter would be taken negatively, especially for those who really like Rory. But for those who are calling out Troll or incorrect facts, etc etc, I’ll make a deal. If Rory wins (and I count myself in for those who would like to see him win), I’ll come back and grovel, begging for forgiveness, acknowledging how wrong I had it, etc etc But if Rory loses, and for any reasonable connection to the factors I listed, some sort of similar acknowledgement coming back the other way would be nice! 😊 👍 -

Rich Hunt has as usual (since 2013) predicted the 20 players most likely to win based mostly on data. Here's the state of things after two rounds. "Top 10" means it's his personal predition of the 10 mostlikely to win of those 20. Rose was filtered out based on lack of distance off the tee, but with his 300 average he's just over the tour average and longer than several other players that made the top 20 shortlist (Lowry, Hovland, Cantlay +), so I don't understand how that works. Maybe certain metrics overrule other metrics?

Announcing; it bugs me when they ask “Are you proud of yourself?” “Are you proud of the way you played?” “Are you proud of this or that?” In what other sport do the announcers-interviewers ask this annoying question? And then the golfers have to answer… “I was really proud of myself when.. yada yada" Tyrell Hatton, 16th hole; Following his reaction to his tee shot, after his first putt I thought his head was going to explode. He’s kinda entertaining that way, I think he’s the top contender for ‘most likely to explode' -

Update on my prediction! Standing by it, regardless of my mangling of the divorce item in point #3. As to where we stand, Rory’s turnaround, wow. His talent is undeniable, and as he puts it himself - he’s resilient.
