    Think I saw he'll be wearing these regularly. Signed a deal.  Horrible, just horrible.

    Oh come on!!!  What the hell is wrong with him???  This is like Bubba with the pink balls...
    I know dude.  I was actually gonna say the same thing about Bubba's balls haha.
    It looks horrible and he's going to be hot as fuck wearing a long-sleeved dress shirt playing golf all summer.  Crazy.
    You hear Faldo just kill him? "His cuffs are too heavy"

    That was good.  All these announcers are killing him for this shirt.....as they should.

    Imagine he pulls off the unthinkable, wins at Shinnecock completing the career grand slam and the pictures he has for the rest of his life after winning the biggest tournament of his career and he is wearing that...

    Wow. His best round ever at the Players.
  • bootlegger10bootlegger10 Posts: 15,489
    Five pars, a birdie, and three triples on the back nine this morning.  Arg.......so inconsistent.

    Fuck Webb Simpson. I’m hoping for a quadruple bogey on the first for him tomorrow to make things interesting. 

    Tiger paired with Jordan!

    There are few things in golf I dislike more than Simpson’s swing and chicken wing follow through

    Webb is a good dude though. Boring as all hell to watch, but a good dude. Good for him if he seals the deal today.

    UGGHHH.  Still a great tournament for El Tigre, but that's gonna be a kick in the nuts.

    Golf is funny.   A guy finally winning a tournament after four years who ONLY managed to win 3.2 million in tournament winnings the prior season is a feel good story. 

    Bummer the tournament was over after Day 3.  The Masters was not very tight most of Sunday.  Hopefully the next three Majors are more exciting, especially with all of the playoffs in regular tourneys earlier in the season.

    It's all gonna click sometime soon, and I can't hardly wait. It seems more like when, not if. The interesting part to me, will be to see what happens after his next win. Will he rest easy and be content with one more win and fade away? Will he continue the next few years riding a roller coaster? Or, and this is my hope, will he turn BEAST and become madman Tiger all over again?

    At 42, I doubt he's gonna be that beast again....but anyone who plays the way he did this weekend can certainly win more tournaments and another major or two. That was fun (except for Webb Simpson)

    What's the beef with Webb Simpson?

    Yeah I don't get the hate for Simpson.  Guy went out there and completely dominated a stacked field.

    I don't have beef with him....his domination just made the weekend pretty boring

    Gotcha.  Some players have bad reputations and just curious.  A boring winner and Sunday for sure, but most golfers are boring on tour.

    Yeah, I guess I worded that incorrectly. I think there's zero chance he ever becomes the best or close to the best version of Tiger. But I feel an 85% version of the very good Tiger still rules today's field.

    Your new world number 1, folks...Justin Thomas.

    DJ still the best player in the world.
  • bootlegger10bootlegger10 Posts: 15,489
    Okay.  So what do you think is your number 1 golf swing issue?

    Mine is the transition from the top of the swing.  Can’t stop casting the club instead of building lag.

    I often come over the top on my downswing. Not enough to affect my irons but the Driver can be iffy. I'm working on keeping my downswing inside the plane of my backswing.

    Same story with me. It is a constant struggle, especially with my driver.

    Basically every Am.  Same here.  Plus I swing way too hard. Not a good recipe.
