Anyone seen Pavon, our current leader, hit a shot lately?

 

Meanwhile, we’re well UTD on JT’s scintillating round….

The JT buzz has been getting a bit annoying. I like watching him play when he's in contention, but no need to see him when he's +7. Really good player but they treat him as if he is a great.

Obviously, but his injury problems pre-date that incident, don't they...the auto accident was just the coup de grace.

Saying any type of training directly led to any of his previous injuries is pure speculation. So I’ll leave it at that. 
 

*just my opinion of course 😊

Yea the JT love affair is getting silly. Going to have to put Henley's face on a milk carton pretty soon.

Johnson Wagner, you are not good for golf.  I used to say things like that, then my dad got a job.

I’d argue driving his SUV into a tree at 90 mph has impacted him more than the SF training… But what do I know 🤷🏼‍♂️

Totally. The dude almost had to have an amputation. It's a miracle he's even walking, let alone playing golf.

 

But I do agree with @bcflyguy1. I have an ex-Seal that works for me right now, and a few casual friends that were SF. I can tell he got seriously banged up, but he never talks about it. He is one of the most optimistic, funny guys I've ever met. (And damn is that guy disciplined. Almost scary disciplined.)

I enjoyed that last iPhone 15 commercial. I felt it was a great representation of the joy a high quality smartphone can add to a special occasion in one’s life. 
 

*The anti-WRX post. We need a lil balance here 😇

Safe to say Tiger trained and did less than .05% of what that guy did tho 😉

0 or 1. I played Torrey Pines South right after a tournament and shot 110 from Whites (6900) with 2 PARs.

Back when I could play 15ish years ago (but was a mental midget) I shot 76(?) the day after the Farmers from the pros tees, same pins, etc.

Shot 74 the day after the Byron Nelson around the same time. Same tees, same pins, etc.

Today, I hit it nowhere, so couldn't do nearly as well.

If we were playing a drinking game of "take a shot when you see anyone within a shot of the lead hit a shot," we would have all had time to sober up for the last hour or so. Close to zero Henley or Pavon coverage

That’s super impressive.  People don’t realize how tough these pro setups are unless they’ve been there.

JT working hard this year to prove he shouldn't have been picked to be in the Ryder Cup. I appreciate that level of validation.

And the pros are 10 strokes better a round.  These guys are not playing the same game we are.

Tiger needs to start playing that slice and just aim at left side the greens only

Ha, exactly what Tiger did in regards to his “SF training” is obviously speculation from me. That said my, .05% was based on Bob comparing Tiger to an actual SEAL. Feeling pretty solid about my “speculation” there! 😂 

 

As always, just good natured banter! I’m far from taking anything here all that seriously. 
Cheers 🍻 😊

Every week JT shows he needs swing coach he doesn't call "Dad". Dude needs Butch like now

Idk, you have to get up pretty early in the morning to show that you were less valuable to the team than Rickie. Seems like a good dude, but does not belong within 30 feet of a captain's pick ever again. If he earns it, fine, but my word. He hasn't been anything special on Tour in a very long time.

Dont Disagree. But Rickie was much closer on points the JT was correct? I dont recall for sure.

Eldrick had a quick Lasik procedure done after hole #4 and is back on track.

I'm not sure, but at least Thomas played okay and won a match. I'm not as upset about the Thomas pick because he does seem to do well on that stage. Spieth and Fowler combined for a record of 0-4-2. Abysmal. Never again unless they somehow qualify. Or unless we let some moron like ZJ be the captain and decide that the Ryder Cup is just a personal buddies trip for him and his usual foursome and leave better players at home.

Ah, Pinehurst #2, where every hole is the volcano hole of your youth.

 

The nostalgia washes over in waves...

Aberg what a bogey.  Wow Pinehurts at its finest.

Oh phew, for a second there I thought that chick was a SM influencer and that she was actually out there b4 the tournament knocking it around like Phil did a while back.
