    Seeing Spieth, Day, and Rory playing together is pretty damn cool....though I find it discouraging that Trump's name is on this course.

    Yeah, would love for them to move this tournament next year. Becoming a gimmick with the length.

    So much worse than trump owns turnberry.

    Put a couple decent sized bets down yesterday on Bubba and Scott at Augusta. Ugh, it's like betting on the Red Sox. Somehow they are not the favorites still. Even after the win, you can still get pretty decent odds on both of them.

    How insane are the last 2 weeks for scott? He carded a quadruple last week and won. Two double's yesterday, a shanked bunker shot and that shot at 18, and won. Crazy.

    Played Bethpage Blue last Monday...Shot a 93, I was thrilled. I know its not great yet but I've come a long way. I played thru the mild winter & trips to Florida. I've been watching some youtube videos prior to playing and something just clicked in terms of my stance, footwork. I feel like I'm turning a big corner and will gradually get better.

    Played 36 Holes last Thursday at Eisenhower Park White by Nassau Coliseum here on Long Island.
    1st 18 Holes I played with my buddy...shot a 91 (easier coarse than Bethpage), made a sick sick 25ft put for par. Watching it go in was awesome.
    We waited on 2 more people and started another round in the afternoon....drank like 3 beers before I tee'd off, another 5-6 on front 9.....Finished with a 95.It didn't help.

    I'm def hooked on the sport, been ordering new shirts, pants etc. everytime I get an email from Golfsmith...Its not cheap but its good times.

    I plan on playing at least 3 times a week once the weather gets a little better. My buddy is part of a club, I get a little discount there but like mixing it up at different places.

    That's awesome, man. I had a buddy who played Black right behind Phil before the last time the US Open was there.

    I need to find the time to get out more often and really concentrate on it. Every year I say I'm going to, then life happens.

    So apparently some dudes were heckling Poutler recently telling him to hit it in the water and that he wasn't going to make the Ryder Cup team. Not really something that should be done at a golf tournament, but whatever. Poulter then tried to have them kicked out, they posted about it on Twitter and apparently Poulter responded copying their employer or something and got one of them fired from their job.

    He is the absolute worst.

    still ... i'm tired of assholes .... i'm tired of people who think being an asshole is funny or cool or whatever ... it's like the guy who went from rich man neurosurgeon to rollerblader on the beach said ... just don't want to be an asshole ...

    Ian is a dick..he just reminds me of a spoiled brat.. Adam Scott still in fine form with another -5 today. Probably one of the favorites but he could be a good play at Augusta. Especially since the short putter seems to be working..

    I agree. Not the time or place to be heckling him. Ryder cup on the other hand, heckle him all day.

    That said, a many times over millionaire who constantly posts pictures of his Ferrari's getting a dude probably making less than $50k fired is about as petty as it gets. It actually angers me.

    I have Bubba at 14-1 and Scott at 11-1 for the Masters. I really don't like either of them. Scott is just so damn vanilla and he beat El Pato at the Masters.

    My least favorite golfers

    Poulter
    Bubba

    Sergio





    Scott

    what grounds did the employer have for firing him?

    I assume that he is a representation of the company in public.
