  1. Thank you deasy, this can be a pretty fair way to judge a tournament, but if anyone got another method beside personal valuation I am completely open to that!
  2. Sure, you would have chosen Tiger, while I would have chosen Keegan (I always confuse his name), thank god we don't have the same opinions, I like to discuss! ;)
  3. I think that if a guy named Keenan stays at home watching the President Cup on tv there is something wrong... imho Bradley deserves that spot, no matter if Tiger was the best player on Earth till 2009, Couples should have given that spot to the Pga Champ, full stop! Tiger played 2 full tournaments since the Masters and you wanna compare him to regular Tour guys?! And why are you comparing it to John Daly?!?!? Nearly everyone is better than Daly nowadays! What this comparison has to do with all this?!? And by the way, yes I think Couples is pretty lucky cause letting home the 2011 PGA Champ and having at the President Cup a Tiger playing like in the PGA Champ welll... that would be pretty lame...
  4. I dunno, we can now go on and see who wins between Tiger fans and Sergio fans and see if you valuate more the Valderrama win of the Spaniard or the Australian performance of Mr. Tont but more or less I think after the PGA Champ these fields are the same, of course there are a lot of ways to valuate the field but I think you get my point! (imho) Of course sometimes people can be biased and cheer for their guy but I am neither American, nor Spaniard so to me (imho) the two fields were pretty much the same level
  5. I just don't get your point... you are comparing percentages of cuts made even if Tiger barely played this year?!? why do you think Tiger was a good pick?!? And what does the last phrase has to do with all this?!?
  6. Me on the other side think Mr. Couples is pretty lucky Tiger (sort of) found his game just before the President Cup! :D
  7. Pretty easy post to write after the 2011 Australian Open ;) (imho) p.s. happy to see Tiger contending again, even if this was a weak field
  8. Shoulder problems!
  9. This will be a great President Cup: on one side the US Team don't want to make the infamous record of all team tournaments lost since Celtic Manor (Ryder, Walker, Solheim) while on the other side I think the Internationals got the players to beat US, great show!
  10. Come on, don't be an hater! ;) Great to see Tiger back on top of the leaderboard, I really hope he will fix his life and mind, and then his game will follow!
  11. The beautiful Albatross Adam Scott did:
  12. Yeah you right! Next thread?
  13. Are you really able to picture Donald showing off?!? I am not even sure Luke would like to switch his year with Bradley's :D (imho)
  14. imho: - Donald, but if you really don't like that guy then... - Rory cause of Masters meltdown and US Open recovery, but if you really don't like these 2 guys then... - choose Bradley, Clarke or Schwartzel because of exciting playoff, romantic win or amazing finishing holes... but if you really don't care about major wins then... - randomly choose Simpsons or Haas cause they are the 2 left they did something relevant this year, but at this point why not choosing... - Tom Lewis and his opening round at The Open, his Silver Medal and his maiden win at the Portugal Masters? To conclude: not giving this title to Luke is just ridiculous imho...
  15. Tiger in this interview said that Steve Williams is not a racist, but please let this flame thread continue! ;)
  16. Wow that was a difficult post to read... from what I think I understand the average American prefer Fowler over Bjorn cause Rickie is more famous in the US, and this is understandable, but we are not talking about flashy hats but strong golfers, am I right? (imho) I still don't get your point though...
  17. Hello Sean, sorry for the misunderstanding, I was not referring to your post but to the other one, maybe it was not clear enough from my post!
  18. Poor Steve Williams, since that infamous day when he won with Adam Scott everyone is trying to make him look as the devil on Earth, maybe this is the price for winning the breakup with Tiger?!?
  19. Does anybody knows what happened to Matteo on the first day? I think the last time he scored +10 he was 12...
  20. I really don't like this arrogant and snobbish (imho) attitute towards the Euro Tour, especially in this period of the history where its showing pretty good golf compared to the US Tour, but I understand not everyone is like me. Thank you for your interpretation of that post btw, but I will wait for mcfc_nick explanation! ;)
  21. Here is the recap video for the round 2 of this weak event! ;) enjoy!
  22. What do you mean?
  23. I would go for Luke Donald or Jason Day but after last 2 weeks I think Sergio will have a chance!
  24. Hello shades, I am sorry but this time I won't go into an endless conversation with you like I did with Bubba thread at the French Open, you are just to biased in your judgment vs members of Euro Tour vs members on the PGA Tour (imho), if you don't want to get it, then that's ok for me anyway! ;) cheers!
  25. it's quite funny to see the enthusiasm for Rickie Fowler and his win in the Kolon Open that looked like a Major win and the indifference showed here by a back to back win of Sergio on the European Tour, it's also quite funny to see the anti-american excuse... guys, Sergio did a fantastic thing the last 2 weeks and I am so sorry some Americans on this board refuse to like it only because this guy is Spanish. Try to be less only-american-biased and you will appreciate this sport more!
