goose Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Scott Scheffler really is the anti-Tiger. Whereas Woods would get a guy down and ferociously stomp on his neck, Scheffler is content to bore his opponents into submission. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When a player hits an ace, I always love seeing the others in the group congratulating them. Even though they're competing against each other, there's always time for a high five when someone dunks one from the tee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) It's early Friday at the Masters and a tucked pin on the severely mounded par 3 hole 6 green is making pros look like beer league hacks. Mickleson's hit his tee shot slightly fat, leaving him short with a steep uphill pitch, which he chunked. The result was the ball rolling back down to 60 feet away from the flag. When Phil failed to give his subsequent long par putt enough gas, the ball rolled back down 70 feet.

Principled Man Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 ESPN's website: Golf Home Page Bruce Koepka (-12), Jon Rahm (-9) and Sam Bennett (-8) are the leaders, but what dominates the top of the page? You guessed it - Tiger Woods (+2) and the Tiger Tracker.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koepka Not a Koepka fan and I didn't really hear this firsthand so take it for what it's worth but it seems like he was injured and not sure of his recovery so he was just taking the Saudis' money but now that he's recovering and playing well it seems he wants to be playing real golf more than four times a year instead of participating in that farce. The reaction of the patrons ;) to any success Phil had was kind of funny. For the pro-life Phil there were several occasions where in the past there would have been roars but there was very muted applause this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad he's healthy and playing well, but he was a dick before LIV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he was. I wouldn't count out Rahm yet, though, he's only three back. But having to play 45 holes in two days won't help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that the AM tee times were a combined +16, while the PM tee times were +88. That makes Rahm's accomplishment even more impressive. A shame he couldn't squeeze a par out of hole 18. Two days of bad weather will make shooting under very difficult, with temps in the low 50s to high 40s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I guess we're getting a good idea of how things will go if you take the distance out of the shots. Quite frankly, it seems like it will be more interesting, creative, and rewarding of skill, eventually. Maybe tennis should go back to wooden rackets, too.

laughedatbytime Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Unfortunately, Bryson missed the cut and won't have a chance to improve on his 77 over par record in 12 rounds after declaring Augusta a par 67 in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's like a certain former businessman that pretended to be a politician for a time. Anything and everything he does the media covers and it's annoying.
