As long as I get to see my "Fan Duel" ads....where's that sarcasm font again....

Phil and BD pairing makes no sense. BD approaches the game like a robot and tries to approach every shot scientifically (literally). Why would you pair him out n alternate shot with a guy who is a total free wheeler on the course?  Fourball would be one thing, but alternate shot is just stupid. Also why no Reed/Spieth pairing?

Spieth/ Thomas looks a ridiculously strong 4some on paper, while Reed was bang average this morning. 

The Mickelson/ BD combo is bizarre though.

The only reason I can think of is Phil has been putting so well this year. Maybe the theory was Phil would carry Bryson on the green and could get them out of trouble if Bryson missed the green which he has been doing. Still I agree with you strange combo.

Another thing better in Europe - I’m watching the Ryder cup with about 5-8 mins of commercials per hour.

Tiger looks a like he needs the afternoon off. Not sure if anyone knows but I would think it would have been better to have a week in between the Tour Championship and the Ryder Cup?

Woods isn't a TEAM player and should have been missed completely. He's got a terrible Ryder Cup record. But as a European we're GLAD he's in the team. More guaranteed points for us 😁

Shouldn’t have any adverts given how much we pay for the subscription.

Meh, Phil can ride the pine IMO, but I agree I’d like to see koepka go out twice tomorrow.

Right... You are so witty.

I have not been impressed with Phil's performance lately either.

I got a golf channel in a HD pack so it’s about 20€ per month more for a 100 HD channels so no biggie.

I haven't seen a single ad today on my subscription. Lovely.

Great comeback from Europe, should be some good highlights on the telly tonight.

Not going to get carried away though as there is still a lot of golf still to be played .

Good going this pm. If we can tie the Americans on the fourballs I think that will be the key.

I’d prefer to see Phil sit out. Pretty useless. I hope this ends the ‘throw the vet a bone’ pick.

    • Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.
    • Day 9: 2/16/25 Putting through 50 mm gates from 11”. Swing pressure shift drills.
    • Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.
    • Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.
    • A question I have is…this swing (fade, pull cut) does not  feel as good and easily repeatable as the draw swing we were working on previously.  I’m kinda in a weird spot where I do not know which direction will be the best to pursue. I like seeing a penetrating 5 yard draw but also like the thought of the fade not getting away from me as much.    Any thoughts on that?
