2020 ZOZO Championship

[Golfjack]

Hey I'm happy if he can just squeeze out a win a year. If he somehow gets another major I'd be ecstatic. But right now his body seems to only allow him to be on this semi recreational schedule (compared to his old training habits).

Amazing. Some keep saying he can't do something, then he goes out and does it. Is 18 in the offering? Who knows, but if he's playing like that, he could get there. Congrats on 82!

Lil' Tiger: "82 wins, huh, Sammy???"

Snead: "You bet, kiddo!"

Lil' Tiger:"Ahhhh, hold my Coke for a minute..."

Tiger Woods leads the PGA Tour scoring average!


 

And yes, I know it doesn't mean much when the sample size is one event. ;-)

 

 

[rukahs]

Insane. Awesome to witness history in the making time after time.

[MattyO1984]

Roll on number 83!!

You don't get relief when your ball is embedded in the rough. Trees are pretty rough.

At his age, it would be impressive what he is doing and that does not even factor in the injury history. Just jaw dropping.

[scores]

Modern medicine really helped him wow i thought he was all done six years ago it tells you how good these doctors are in the USA

I have no doubt this will happen. I think to some degree even champions tour wins count. I am not saying he will need it, but just that they are a factor.

[golfnoob25]

Still want to know if Tiger is the only player to start bogey bogey bogey and go on to win...

Champions tour wins absolutely do not count. That would be like saying you got a hole in one on a par 3 course

Respectfully, for future posts, I would like to offer some advice (not that I am one to give advice, typically):

 

 

Issues at home are "usually" applicable to players showing signs of a "slump" or experiencing "trouble on the greens."

That's my point. He doesn't have home issues, hence he won... Hence, No home issues.. I thought you would get a kick out of that, since that is your thing. I guess not.

Sorry, I take all posts seriously until told otherwise.

 

 

It was funny, agreed.

Very interesting... Snead win percentage before age 45 was 21%... but only 2% (4 of 219) after age 45.
