I woke up this morning with the urge to travel and play some golf this weekend. Called up Bandon Dunes and booked a flight to Eugene tonight. Five rounds. Can't wait.

As a NLU stan, pulling hard for Homa. Would be cool with Scottie.
what’s a “NLU stan”?

I always held out hope, but Tiger ain’t winning anything again. Cant string together four rounds anymore. Still, he made the cut which is freakin amazing. Damn car accident. He would have won more majors.

the divorce was the downfall. I think he won only 1 major after that? so 2009 on he won the masters in 19. not a sniff since.
“My victory was secure on the cross”…on that note, I’m out. Super duper weirdo
God clearly said "Suck It" to Colin Morikowa for sure.
I like Scottie regardless though. Went huge on him when he was +125 while there was a three way tie at -6.
Great Masters!
Yeah I ended up hedging when he was +140 near the end of round 3, and with a round 4 parlay of him, Morikawa, Homa, and Bryson finishing in the top-10, I was able to win some money. He's almost a sure thing when in contention in round 4 of a big tournament.
81 on Bandon Dunes this morning. Nothing worse than bogey. Probably my best round ever. Finished with four bogeys in a row though.
I would fall apart the last 4 holes whenever I was approaching my best... Every single time... all in my head.
It has to be considered choking, but on those last four holes I had some really great shots. Just couldn't get up and down. I was almost relieved when I bogeyed 17 so that I wasn't on 79 watch anymore. I was consistent on both 9's though which I was happy about.
I had a front nine 54 on Pacific Dunes and 41 on the back. I got one par on Sheep Ranch on the back nine on my way to an 87. I'm all over the place this trip.
We were first off the tee at 7am. Wrapped in 3 hrs, 45 minutes which was ahead of the 4 hour pace they set for us. I love being first off the tee and walking. Off on adventure and nobody in front of you to slow it down.
Yeah, agreed he seems like a good dude and obviously the best golfer on the planet. The super weird bible thumping just creeps me out.
Edit: On the other side, this is about as great of a quote as you could ever ask for.
“You know, my dad — the way I was raised — my dad stayed home with us,” Scottie Scheffler said. “My mom worked. And my dad never really looked at me as a golfer. He never pushed me to become a good golfer. That was never what he wanted for me. My parents pushed more education and being kind to people. So I think playing junior golf, I think sometimes you see a lot of parents who really want their kid to become really, really good at something, and they think that's what's going to bring them joy. But becoming a really good golfer may bring you a little bit of momentary joy, but it doesn't sustain it for very long. Winning a tournament makes me happy for about five minutes, and then you go do a bunch of other things that are a little bit more difficult than winning the tournament.”

This is awesome stuff. Very jealous. Gotta get out there.
Scheffler is inevitable. Everyone starts falling apart on the back 9 and he just keeps on going. Incredible.
Not saying it will be the same, but rory, speith, koepka, etc. were all supposed to dominate for years, too…

Scheffler feels different. Similar to Koepka, but Scottie actually shows up for other events. And he has already sustained a higher level of play for much longer than them. Time will tell.

JT is dead
Jordan is dead
Rory is dead
DJ is buried under the jail
Rahm talking about them calling play?! LIV made him soft?!?
Tiger will never cease to amaze.

JT and Jordan just need to go away. They just got beat by Olazabal and Tiger who can barely walk.
Homa would be great but it's hard to see anyone taking down Scottie. His 72 yesterday was his highest score of the season....LOL.

But as far sports role models go, I think he is near the top of the list if you value character/family.

Great Masters!
His injury then divorce.
