Wow, it's been a year already - pretty amazing. This was the first full event cancelled following the C19 pandemic. But, like Phoenix rising from the ashes, we're back . Will this be Rickie's breakout from the slump? Will Rory repeat... making him the first to ever do so? Will BAD start a new run of overpowering courses and the field? I've got all 8 of my FTx players in and have my money on Webb. Who ya got?

Here are some bag shots from Collin Morikawa, DJ, Rory and Doc Redman from this weeks Charles Schwab Challenge. Some notes: Rory worked with both SIM and SIM Max but likely moving to SIM MAX at 9.0 one click lower than his 10.5 SIM. DJ likely putting the Truss TM1 in the bag, but tested it alongside the Spider yesterday. With DJ you never know what he'll go with. Also the BBQ putter covers will be available to the public beginning today. All Photos Courtesy of TaylorMade

A little over a month ago, TaylorMade and Rory debuted Rory's custom built clubs, the Rors Proto irons. I was wondering if anyone has come across some performance numbers for the irons like ball speed, spin, carry? It would simply be eyebrow-raising to see what numbers these clubs generate under Rory's swing. Maybe if someone has come across Rory's iron play numbers over the past month or so, that'd be super neat to study. Of course they're not production irons which hinders pretty much any possibility to gain numbers of them, but can't hurt to try! -Thanks! Swing easy.

Rory hits a bad shot, loses temper, throws his club in the water By Luke Kerr-Dineen After ripping his drive down the fairway on Doral's par-5 8th, Rory hit a bad second shot into water and sentenced his 3-iron to death by drowning. He went on to make bogey on the hole, which dropped him to one-over for the tournament. Don't take our word for it: It brings to mind the famous Tommy Bolt photograph, who was renowned for his bad temper. "If you're going to throw a club it is important to throw it ahead of you," he once said, "down the fairway, so you don't have to waste energy going back to pick it up." "If you're going to throw a club it is important to throw it ahead of you, down the fairway, so you don't have to waste energy going back to pick it up." It's worth nothing that this isn't the first time Rory's punished his clubs, either. After dunking a shot into the water on Merion's 11th hole at the 2013 U.S. Open, he destroyed his 8-iron. So Rory apparently has a bit of a temper, which I could imagine a lot of us could empathize with. I've never broken a club but one of my favorite stories about my dad was his old (he has since calmed WAY down) habit of throwing clubs after bad shots. We were out on a fall evening just turning a quick 9 before the sun went down. My dad just absolute scalds a 7 iron down the fairway (and hadn't really hit a good shot yet that evening). Next thing I know I hear the sound of a club flying through the air, the club manages to hit the smallest, skinniest low hanging branch next to the fairway you could imagine and absolutely snaps the club in half. We laughed so far because it was so unbelievable. I believe his first reaction was "your mom is going to kick my a$$." Anyone else have any good club throwing stories?
