From the Cheap Seats; being an old coot, I have to pull for Bernhard. Long shot at best, but I'd love to see him in the hunt.
We're the opposite even though I'm older than Langer who's 58 we love to see the young guns win.
The leaderboard has a bunch of kids....and a geezer. But he hits fairways & greens, is PDG with his 6-ft scraper, too. Said there was a par 4 where he hit a 3-wood as his second shot, Jason Day used a 7-iron. Amazing.
Tom Watson said the same. He hit his driver and a 5 wood, while one of the younger guys hit a driver and 8 iron??? Wow! Watson's quote - " the course is to big for me." Build longer golf courses for the tour guys. I see 8,000 yard courses in the future.
I was fascinated with how he still uses the long putter but doesn't quite anchor it. Surprised that they still let them use the equipment at all.
Apparently as long as its not anchored its legal. That is supposed to take the advantage of the length away.
They banned it BECAUSE of the "anchoring", so they have to allow it. Funny, Adam Scott is putting better now than before, with a conventional scraper. I tried one of those broomsticks a while ago. Felt really awkward, I'm guessing it takes a long time to get it right.
My wife and I love Bubba. Definitely a "looper" but fun to watch and listen to.
LOL - I guess technically it is his middle name and was the name of his grandmother's cousin who played for LSU.
He does seem like a good guy, but I remember a couple years back some publication (SI?) conducted an anonymous survey with many on the Tour, and Bubba BY FAR was the most disliked. Not sure how nice he is in real life.
He also likes cars....all sorts. His hovercraft golfcart is a hoot.
Yes that's true. When he's not playing and relaxed his interviews are fun!
Dang it - I need to get into a Master's Draft. Majority of chicks just aren't into these kind of things. I could see me suggesting it amongst my group of friends.
At macrame' class???Dang it - I need to get into a Master's Draft. Majority of chicks just aren't into these kind of things. I could see me suggesting it amongst my group of friends.
Augusta, right? YES! (Although the tee to green would take up most of those 2 hours though.
)
Lots of people would!
Golf nuts is an appropriate term for us the people who week after week hit a white ball, I carry my bag and I'm 65, chase the little white ball for 4 hrs., complain about our score , tell stories about why we had such a miserable score, and do it again and again, and again with similar results!!!!!????????
I'll send you (or whoever wants to play) an email link to the next one. Seriously. PayPal $10. We should have one for the US Open.Dang it - I need to get into a Master's Draft. Majority of chicks just aren't into these kind of things. I could see me suggesting it amongst my group of friends.
Jordan undeniably is a fantastic golfer. The one thing I don't like is how long he takes for every shot. I believe he was on the clock yesterday or Friday. Just a pet peeve. (Obviously not as bad as Furyk or Bradley, though. Now Keegan is a golfer I just don't like.)
I don't understand your correlation at all. This is an individual sport where they are independent contractors living week to week on performance. Winning trophies as kids means nothing at this level.
Yessir. I'd hit a 6-iron at #12, just to be sure!!!
Aim for that trap in the back. The putts wouldn't bother me too much. Toured Oakmont with only 3 3-putts.....long time ago.
He takes a long time getting ready....but then just hits it. Rarely takes a practice stroke over the ball on the green. It works for him, though, so expect no change.....plus, it gives Nantz more time to mumble his prayers. The Directv enhanced channels are great. They select a couple groups on one, Amen Corner on a second, 15 & 16 a third, 17& 18 to close. The best thing is it is put on their lower packages, nothing extra to pay. That won't last....PPV will soon rule TV sports.
