Ro Sham Bo Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 (edited) I've only had Quail Hollow on for the last 4 holes but Schauffele is producing one of the worst putting runs I can recall seeing. Edited May 12 by Ro Sham Bo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's as if Scheffler has somehow managed to transfer his shite putting on to him, he's been woefully short several times. It was our Open at Bishopbriggs today, I played largely shite but did can a 30 footer for a 2 on the par 3 14th to get some sweep money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The down side is that the Sky hype machine will be in absolute overdrive ahead of the PGA this week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a decent week but promised a lot more. He is 20 FedEx points outside of the Aon swing 5 to get into the next signature event so next up the Canadian open in that little mini series the pga doesn't count ( unless he wins it obviously) Not to go all McGinley but that was superb by Rory last night 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funky_nomad Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Played in a better-ball competition on Saturday, and did actually receive a (small) adjustment to my WHS due to meeting the rather convoluted criteria for WHS to kick in (ie the team scored 42 points/nett 6-under, I registered a score in at least 9 holes, and I would have scored at least 36 points on my own ball). While I get the principle of this change at least meaning there's an acknowledgement that some folk play mainly doubles off bandit handicaps and this may go a little way to addressing matters (plus I'm glad that my best round of the season so far was at least recognised in some way despite being nowhere near the prizes), the negative side is that play was noticeably slower as everyone was putting out even when their partner was in the hole with a counting score. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnside91 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Alastair Docherty- playing on an sponsors invite due to his links with Barstool sports finishing T2 at the Myrtle Beach classic. A very emotional interview after shows how much even these shadow events can mean to touring pros trying to make it in the game. I'm sure he will be on the Barstool Foreplay podcast this week. Will be a good listen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VictorOnopko Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 9 hours ago, bobbydazzler said: absolutely dreading hearing Mcginley bum him up all week, more than he already does The upside of that is that it's quite funny listening to an increasingly desperate McGinley coming out with things like "he's still in this, he just needs to birdie every single hole in his final round" later in the week. I'm not at all convinced that Rory has another major in him but Valhalla being a place he likes and has won at before, coming off a win, and Scheffler possibly distracted by new fatherhood, this week may be one of the best chances he will get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funky_nomad Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I see they're allowing range-finders during play this week to "speed up the pace of play". I'm not sure that a caddy taking 8 or 9 goes to confirm that the laser picks up the flag rather than some tree 45 yards in the background is going to have the desired effect, but have at it... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been doing that for a couple of years at the pga Maybe this why Rory has a bounce in his step again Tmz is normally rubbish though https://www.tmz.com/2024/05/14/rory-mcilroy-files-for-divorce/?adid=social-tw Edited May 14 by doulikefish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it run by the PGA of America and not the PGA Tour? so probably saying this to big up the almighty PGA Tour 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
