I am thinking Mr. Anheuser Busch will take the win on this one.

On the golf course, I'm taking Bubba.

Over/under on DUI's coming out of this event for the week is 10,000.

Take. The. Over.

That would be something. He needs some sort of inspiration. Maybe the weekend fans will bring it out?

 

I was thinking Rahm...Sun Devil...but I thought Spieth made some really good swings this week and could ride that out. Besides, the fans love him.

I like Spieth, but he hasn't shown me that he can put two good rounds together on the weekend for 2 years.  If he can play the weekend under par, then I will give him some consideration.

This is a love/hate tournament beyond a doubt.  I would not love this atmosphere every week but I think once in a while is good for the game.  I always enjoy watching for that reason and because I've played the course (my folks retired to Scottsdale - both have passed so I haven't been there in a while.)  Having written that I won't be watching this year - I have weddings on Saturday and Sunday - it will be a crazy weekend.  I will get home in time for the Super Bowl but it's highly unlikely that I see any of the golf. 😞

So being a Phoenician of nearly 27 years I've probably been to the Garbage Open 4 times. Every time I go I'm reminded of why I don't go often and promise myself never to go back.

Being a SW golf Mecca, it just blows my mind why we can't get just 1 more big but normal event here. If I had a dollar for every true local golf enthusiasts that I know personally who takes a hard PASS on the WM, I'd have enough money for a round at TPC Snobsdale (growing up in Mesa, and having a wife raised in Scottsdale, I've earned the right to call names).

Honestly I can think of other better places than a PGA event for ASUs freshman class to take their weekend field trip.

Ok, I'm climbing down from my mile-high soapbox tirade now.

the more I practice, the luckier I seem to get..

It's known as the "Wasted" Management for a reason!  Enjoying an adult beverage responsibly is almost non-existent in modern culture. 

Drinking myself into oblivion isn't my idea of fun!  Hanging out with 200,000 people who do is my idea of hell!

And this is one of the numerous reasons why I don't like college football (so it's 100K instead of 200K).  That and the fact that most games have little action and last longer than a round of golf.  And the Super Bowl resembles that - but I will probably enjoy watching it - from the safety of my living room.

Man is it ever getting hard to be a Speith fan.  His precipitous fall has been tough to watch.  I thought for sure he would be a top 10 player for many years but then cupid's arrow found its mark.... sigh 😪.  I've been hoping with the engagement and wedding now in the rearview mirror the mental part of his game would return - but it has not.  I sure hope 2020 is the year... just as I'd hoped 2019 would be.

I'd agree - tough to watch him = He has definitely lost his mojo. Maybe dropping out of the top 50 will be a wake-up call?

He has the driver yips. His swing is/was pretty unconventional for a tour pro. The weird chicken wing action. it worked for a long time and he was very accurate. I think he tried to pick up some yards and lost it. he was short'ish but accurate. Now he is still short'ish but can't find the planet. That plus his putter cooled tremendously.

Jordan really showing the frustration.  So many lengthy putts for birdie on-line but coming up just short.  Watching his mannerisms of late sure seems like he's fighting every aspect of the game and that freewheeling gunslinger self from his early years is lost.

I’m interested in Mike Greller’s role. One thing he always seemed to have with Jordan was that “friend type” relationship where he could cross the line and sort him out like a friend would.

Outwardly they don't seem to have the same dynamic as the winning days.  But a long spell of scrambling and losing no doubt has negative effects on both of them.  I don't know what the history is on caddie change-up's (positive vs. negative) or that it it makes sense in Jordan's current case - but that has been discussed more than once by the talking heads.
