DAVIS LOVE III

sprtsfrek21 · March 27, 2006

My name is Davis and I was named after Davis Love III, and after the first day of the PLAYERS I was proud of it. BUT THEN, Davis shoots an 83 on the second day to miss the cut.

:)

What are your thoughts?

i think he had a total melt down. he probably genuinely convinced himself that he had a shot at a third victory and as a result of this tried to make things happen instead of letting his natural talent to take over.

Remember the commercials that were running the last couple weeks with Tiger talking about DL3's 64 in the final round a few years ago? I think next year's ads will sound the same, but with a bit different dialogue from TW.

Tiger Woods: "That was just a phenomenally bad round. To shoot 83 in the second round of this tournament?!? Bogey... bogey... bogey... I mean what golf course is he playing? It's not that hard! I mean that's gotta be one of the worst rounds... in history. This is our championship. The Player's Championship!" :)

On a more serious note, I think DL3 will bounce back from this rather quickly. Think about it, Ames won a month after getting dragged around La Costa and spanked by Tiger. They all know it's golf and anything can happen.

That's funny!!

DLIII may have collapsed in the second round, but look at the others the course claimed. I think after watching so many golfers try to make things happen out there, only to have it backfire will actually help DLIII. I wish him luck. It's not like he 3 putted from 3 feet on Sunday at the 17th while in contention. He went for it, and it didn't work.

He would have at least made the cut but for that 9. All I saw was his card after the fact. How did he end up with a 9?

they explained it on espn. He snapped hooked his drive into a bunker, then chunked it into the rough. Hitting 3, he hits it into another bunker. Hitting 4, he chunks it into another bunker. Hitting 5, he thins it to the back of the green. Hitting six, chips in within 10 feet. Hitting 7, he missed the putt. Hitting 8, he pulled a 3 footer.

Thus created the score of 9 on the par 4 9th
