Nova Carmina Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Lovely weather at Hoylake today, eh? Harman looks like he's hydroplaning toward a major title. Frictionless, you know? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Schauffele is -21 on the last hole of the Tour Championship. Imagine having that score and being five back of the leader. Hovland tore this one up 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reports are he's getting around $500,000,000 to join and I dare say any one of us would do the same. That kind of money doesn't talk, it yells.

That kind of money doesn't talk, it yells. I agree it yells at people like us -- well, like me; I don't know about your situation! -- but Jon Rahm is already a multimillionaire! His grandkids are already fixed for life, and his career isn't nearly over yet -- he's got years left to earn millions more. He didn't need (in any sense of the word) to take that oily blood money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be almost deafening to me. For him, maybe not so much but as we see in almost all sports when there's more money to be made people will go across the country or even the world to play their game. Ohtani only had to go across town to get his $700,000,000 and I figure if you look into whoever owns the Dodgers you'd find some "blood money" from somewhere.

I don't want to beat a dead horse here, but I do just wanna get the boot in one last time before we all move on, shaking our heads about the world's absurdities: I think you and I agree on many things, and I am super sympathetic to the idea that at the root of every hoard there is a crime, but the Saudis are an especially egregious kind of awful: ordering murders, war crimes in Yemen, abuse and oppression straight out of the middle ages at home, exporting a particularly toxic and terroristic (and unrepresentative) kind of Islam in Wahhabi, not to mention environmental degradation; that's the list before we even get to the relatively minor issue of their sports-washing through the LIV tour, Premier League team ownership, and its quislings -- which brings us back to Rahm. All life may be a compromise with our principles, but it'd be nice to think that surely, at some point, enough is enough? Every moment like this one answers that question by saying, "Oh, no; there is no enough; there is no bottom; there is only falling." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Principled Man Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 PGA junior courses? Chilean golfer Cristobal Del Solar shot a 57 on Thursday during a Korn Ferry Tour event in Colombia, the lowest-ever round in a PGA Tour-sanctioned tournament. Del Solar carded nine birdies, two eagles and zero bogeys at Country Club de Bogota’s Pacos course, the shortest on the Korn Ferry Tour and a track that sits nearly 9,000 feet above sea level. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Journeyman Peter Malnati won the Valspar today, coming from two back to beat the field. On hole 18 he lagged his birdie putt to tap in distance then marked to allow his competitor to finish out. While waiting, Malnati broke down, overcome with the reality if what the win meant for his career and family. It was very moving, as was his post tourney interview. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
