  1. Is this the only SG category where performance on other shots can skew the meaning in that way? For example, does BDC's tour leading SG/Driving reduce his potential to gain strokes on approach shots?
  2. Think you would say it is what removes any question about it.
  3. Practing short game is boring and Bryson does not do boring well.
  4. Tiger was always renowned for working out a lot relative to others and that gap has definitely narrowed.
  5. I read somewhere that many tour players can swing harder than they do during competitions because the loss in accuracy is not worth it. If that is not true then it does change things.
  6. Doesn't that also let better players swing less carefully than they otherwise would to get more distance?
  7. What does it mean to say that she is better though? Of course she is - she has an easier time getting better and therefore with a similar level of talent should be.
  8. Yeah that is what I meant. They never call it until it is extremely egregious.
  9. Of course they are but does that really matter? You can't say a golfer now is better than a golfer with a similar resume (adjusted for field strength) from 1970 because the golfer now is a "better athlete."
  10. That puts it a level beneath crosschecking, which appears to be the NHL's version of traveling.
  11. So the best athletes now are comparable to the best athletes then (at least relatively) and the difference comes from how much less of a competitive advantage being an elite athlete is now than it used to be?
  12. How do you account for the advantages those players today have in achieving their levels of athleticism? A player from 1975 does not have the last 40+ years of research on training and nutrition, the means to access the knowledge that does exist nearly as easily, or even the same baseline appreciation for the importance of fitness in golf performance.
  13. Oh that explains why BK specifically said what he did. That is not really the most self-aware justification for slow play on BDC's part either. I think he needs a better publicity manager.
  14. Could you not say something like "where the hit was primarily intended to hurt the opposing player rather than separate them from the puck"?
  15. So yes. I am struggling to tell if Koepka's pace of play complaint was valid or not however.
