Sometimes the right answer isn't visible when all that's seen is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Hope they choke on the new schedule.

We can now say that the Tiger era is officially over. Now guys with beer bellies are winning majors again.

Jack never did it in one major season per NBC, which was implied

Is Fleetwood's 2 iron one of the old Nike Vapor's?

Aha! Maybe that's what he means.

 

Jack had top 4 one year in all - maybe the narrative is being redefined to make someone more interesting. ;-)

 

Great accomplishment if he does it, btw.

We will have to worry when guys on golf carts will win majors...

Not sure, but that's what BK uses for his 2 iron.

It’s a Taylor Made GAPR Lo

 

 

[jmck]

Yep, him and Bruce still have one in the bag. At least one other guy does too--maybe Paul Casey? Can't recall. Finau had one up til he signed with Ping too. Quality driving iron.

I’d say BRuce is 3 or 4 and his claim was a clear #1. So he back doors a top 3. Woo hooo. I can hardly contain the excitement. Maybe we will see his butt cheeks again ? Or worse. Guys a fabrication , with a big head. Nothing real going on there.

 

In all fairness, Brooks has had a tremendous run at the majors in the last two years.

 

His problem this week was stating that he was hitting it better than everyone else, and not putting. He was wrong. But with Brooks, he may still feel that he was stating the obvious. The guy's self confidence may be bullet proof.

 

We'll have to wait until next April to find out.

Yes ... because of that weird bird thing avatar, thought that was your major at that higher institution of learning Iowa lol

true brilliance there, cow milking degree

Man JB Holmes +14 today. We've all been there... :#

Love how Morher Nature calls the shots of this tournament. USGA should consider hiring Her as a consultant for the US Open, so they don't have resort to silly tricks to make it a "true test"...

Ummm, that would be Iowa State!

 

Iowa a lot more . . . well, let's just say I lived across from the "Duane Allman Memorial" Fieldhouse, lol. Not quite the rigid environment of Moo U back in the day.

Sure. He’s a great player. I was talking about the personality and the person.

 

A lot more David Simms than Arnold Palmer.
