fixyurdivot Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 And the PGA Tour (wheel) turns. Another week, another no patrons event... when the world dishes out lemons, you make lemonade. A bit of a lackluster field IMO... what's up with that? Did The Memorial hurt some feelings? I've got Rafa, Harman, and Piercy in the FTx... that should get my trajectory moving back toward Tin Cup winner. https://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/3m-open.html https://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/3m-open/field.html Who ya picking?

You know, there is such a very fine line between those with multiple wins and those with 1 or 2. It makes me wonder what the stats would look like if events were 54 holes.

Depends if he is very upset with his weekend performance last week and gets focused, or if he's deflated and falls off the earth. Like last year, the winner could be a relatively new face. Will Gordon impressed me last week. “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrogginBullfish Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Finau will have a new face on the bag this week for the first time in his professional career as he's split from his long-time caddie, Greg Bodine. His coach, Boyd Summerhays, will be on the bag this week.Sent from my Pixel 2 using MyGolfSpy mobile app DRIVER PXG 0811XF GEN4 (10.5°) FAIRWAY WOODS PXG 0341XF GEN4 (16°) HYBRIDS PXG 0317XF GEN4 (19°), PXG 0317X GEN4 (22°) IRONS PXG 0311T GEN3 (5 - 9) WEDGES TAYLORMADE MG3 (45°, 50°, 55° TW Grind, 60° TW Grind) PUTTER PXG BATTLE READY ONE & DONE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mtbryant01 Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 The 9th hole was giving people fits today and deservedly so. It was playing as a 512 yard par 4 with water all down the right side. The green has a portion that extends of water and that’s of course where the pin was today. The scoring average was 4.53 and had 17 double bogies or worst. Only 8 birdies out of 155 people! Other than hole 9, lots of birdies. Do y’all like to see a birdie fest or something like the Memorial where it is a grind the whole time?

Piercy is on my MGS FTx league roster... the guy often seems to be in another timezone.

Seeing 5+ under/round scoring gets boring to me. Honestly, I'm not sure I'd enjoy the game if it was that easy... though I'd like a taste of it a few times . 11 hours ago, Slater said: Also, Pat Perez looks like a pirate.

aerospace_ray Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 What about the seven wood, yes a seven wood in Michael Thompson's bag? He hit absolute beauty with it on hole #12 today (I think it was that hole, where it got Faldo's attention). High arrow straight and held the green. Wish my seven wood shots would do that...
