Just some fact checking...

Maybe I'm not a math wizard, but I'm pretty sure there is something wrong here:

From Yesterday's WRX Morning Nine

**4. Vegas, babies!

Golf Channel’s Nick Menta…”Matt Wolff, Collin Morikawa and Joaquin Niemann are a combined 64 years old.”

“…For reference, Niemann is 20, Wolff is 20, and Morikawa is 22.”**

I guess someone on the internet made a simple math error or typo?

Oh my....glad you found that.


LOL! Where is the thread attack dogs when you need them.....I'm assuming that the error kept the poster up all night...….

I can finally sleep better knowing this

Maybe later. Kinda slow. Nothing good to watch, can't comment on politics and it's raining for the 6th out of the last 7 days. And I've already read the 65 posts commenting on socks.

Did Ancient Greece have fractions?

Lol, not sure why this was worth a post. But, since your brought it up, I did some fact checking of my own and their combined ages are slightly over 64 years old.

Not unless there is some time travel involved.

Why, you start another one?

Maybe they also included the months in the calculation?

For instance Wolff is 20 years 6 months old. Morikawa is 22 years 8 months. Niemann is 20 years 11 months.

If you add it all up it does come up to 64 years 1 month.

HA.

But yeah none of them are exactly their age unless it's their birthday today. They're all 20 (or 22) years old PLUS a certain number of days old. For instance Morikawa age using decimals is 22.7 years old. If you consider their exact age they total up to 64.1 years old.

Yup, thanks, sorry I basically repeated what you said above before seeing your post lol.

That was a real mind-bender.

My combined age is 65.

Hey listen, we haven't even confirmed if the OP agrees.

Just wanted to put this here for posterity.

Obviously under appreciated post.

Kudos caniac6!

doing gods work!!

So when somebody asks your age are you "that" guy as an adult proudly says I'm XX years and XX months old instead of simply stating your actual year age?

Now THIS is some serious use of facts.

(AND it's accurate. I added it up myself).

Discuss.


I didn't write the story line. I just pointed it out. It wasn't and isn't a big deal, just one of those things where people write stuff and don't even both to look at it once before they put it out there. I certainly didn't lose sleep over it. In fact, I had a nap while I tried to watch the Ladies golf.

Wouldn't be the first time I've dug a hole here. Great pic though.

That made me chuckle.

But the head line wasn't wrong....

However you want to spin it. If you put 20+22+20=64 on a math test and expect to get pass on it, it's no wonder people pay people to write SAT's for them.

I love WRX. Good to know that even if the forum software changes, the people dont. :#
