Can’t believe there is no thread yet about this tournament. Tiger teeing it up tomorrow 29th of november together with Justin Thomas. I think he will be in the top 5 this tournament.

Top five is almost the top third, so yeah, that shouldn’t be too difficult.

Looking forward to it. Got my recording for tomorrow set and ready.

Might not be able to see much of this, but hoping that Rose can do well enough to regain #1

I like to watch the Hero, nothing better than watching golf when there is snow on the ground
However it is one of the events that I have an issue with how they are treated for OWGR.
IMO - to give the "Tiger" Invitational winner 48 points is disservice to all the other events recognized.

I just don't see winning this as being worth more points than a 2nd place in a tour event, or 3rd in a major; and 2nd place points in this being about the same as 4th in a major & 3rd in a tour event.

I mean you are only playing against 15 players, even if they are 15 of the top players in the world.

Just check the leaderboard...

Ugh.  I was hoping he would do better than DFL (at least through 12 holes)

Did you see the triple bogey? He tried to chip from the hazard and the ball spun back into the water. They he took a drop.

Yes, the tripple bogey was painfull to look at. Glad he made two birdies after that. His putting was also off, but nothing to worry about. Plays a lot better then a year ago. Allmost all his drives on the fairway. Still see him top 5 on sunday.

I was surprised at how low they didn't go in the first round.

Edit: Never mind, -7 is about right. I thought I remembered the lead was at -4, but I didn't watch all of the event. Derp.

LOL - the "best" part of this event is that a top 5 finish is also a bottom 10

LOL - I was totally wrong.
I should have said where a top10 finish also means a bottom 10, and where everybody gets a top 20 and OWGR points.

What a great season start for Tiger -

1st a top 5 finish (top 2 actually)

and now it looks like he's on track for a Top 20 finish at worst

I'm behind, but did he get penalized? Sure looks bad, IMO.

      Day 314 - Putting some things together. Better grip/setup, fuller backswing, better finishing position. Filmed some swings, happy with the progress.

      Day 206 (24 Nov 24)  - An easy session with the 54deg wedge and hard foam balls / one simple goal - distance control thru backswing length while not decelerating.  Had a playing partner comment they noticed me decelerating on a couple short wedge shots in last round.  Hit from distances from close to 40yds down to 20.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!

      Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
