Fred Couples could get the nod. Think part of their trouble in Rome was all the VCs were guys who play on the Champions Tour, they had no rapport with the guys on the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I’ve always been on the fence as to whether I deep down like Jon Rahm or not but the longer this LIV chat rumbles on the more I’m trusting my gut that he’s a dour faced arsehole. If he stays where he is he will have confirmed himself as a good guy. It’s your choice Jon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 An excellent T4th finish for Grant Forrest at the Australian Open, 3 shots behind the winner Joauquin Niemann who won at the second playoff hole against Rikuyo Hoshino. Connor Syme was 17th and Calum Hill T51st, Bob MacIntyre was on his way home early after missing the cut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main impact for the majority of us hackers will be more expensive golf balls having to be purchased ahead of an arbitrary date of enforcement that will make hee-haw difference to our 'golfing experience'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 The reluctance to have bifurcation in the game bemuses me. As Rory just said yesterday, the reality is it's already in place, they just won't admit to it. Reduce the length for the pros and let the rest of us just get on with it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Was on facebook marketplace because when i cant get on the course i spend my money on stupid things. Saw these Titleist blades for £200, offered the boy £180 and now own them for some reason. Went to the range today, they’re in fantastic nick. I was hitting the 3 iron further than my hybrid off the tee and quite liked the ball flight. The feeling hitting a bad shot isnt too outrageous but i think i’ll stick to my p790’s for now. I found a guy on facebook ‘blue zulu’ who refinishes clubs like the black ones in the other image, i think getting them crekoted with black and the titleist and number painted red? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funky_nomad Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 The look of and feedback from blades is lovely, but after a while that feedback begins to be "you do know you're not good enough to hit these, don't you??" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 The OWGR points on offer for what was effectively an exhibition/charity event between Tiger and his pals last weekend is really giving the LIV crowd ammo. For context - Will Zalatoris earned more points for finishing dead last in a field that contained 20 players than Alex Fitzpatrick who finished T8 at the Aussie Open. The golf politics these days is becoming seriously tiring, what an absolute mess this sport is in. This Jon Rahm stuff just highlights the scale of the mess. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
