I don't get bothered by athletes (they have their lives, I have mine) but I see how people find him annoying with the whole "scientist" thing.  I consider anyone with a career in physics, medical/biol

I never could get excited about Phil. Even back in 1991 watching him being interviewed as the lowest scoring amateur at the Masters the year Woosnam won it, his "Aw shucks" shtick rang hollow.

Watching the Open this weekend, I felt myself rooting against all of the LIV players. So that's my answer.

Me as well.

Well played, sir. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Its interesting, before LIV I never actively rooted against any golfer.  I didn't hope someone would miss the cut.  I didn't hope someone would miss a putt, or hit a ball in the water, or make any sort of mistake.  There were guys I didn't like as much (Sergio and Patrick Reed headlined that list, so I guess they're my villains?), but I never specifically hoped they'd fail.  I'd hope other guys would do better, I always had the mindset that golf was hard, mistakes hurt, and it always felt wrong to try to will that on someone else.

Now with the LIV guys, I don't seem to have that mindset anymore.  I don't send ill will towards any OTHER guys, but I absolutely found myself rooting against them.  May they all get an infinite supply of fried eggs in bunkers

Used to be Sabbatini, Reed, Garcia, Poulter for reasons you probably know.

These days there's a bunch more being led by Greg Norman. I suppose you can guess the reason there as well.

When I was watching the first round of The Open, I swear every time they showed a shot by LIV players they hit a bad one. I didn't even see Phil on the screen a single time.

Patrick Reed will always be villain #1 to me because he cheats. Going to LIV just adds to it.

Sabbatini will always be good in my book for showing up Ben Crane

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.

      Got your hopes up a bit too high only to have them dashed today? A feel "expired"?

      This is why you should never have any expectations when you play golf even when you think things are starting to click together. In end golf will just curb stump you.
