It's interesting hearing Rory and Brooks talk about the NEED for accuracy here with the gnarly rough while Bryson is going full steam ahead with his plan to unleash the Kraken and just try to overpower the course. Mind you Bryson has a higher accuracy percentage off the tee than Brooks and Rory even with the added distance, but I just think it's really interesting to see how 3 of the longest guys on tour have such drastically different ideas on how to attack this golf course. Should be fun to watch.

In other news, Tiger is putting a new Scotty Cameron in the bag this week. It's longer with a slightly softer shaft to protect his back for longer practice sessions. This is according to Steve Stricker who Tiger's done some work on the putting greens with this week.

Bundle Hulu, Disney+ and ESPN+ for $12.99.

ESPN+ is well worth the cost for the 30 for 30 library alone.

I got it to watch Big South sports since they are seldom broadcast anyplace else. My daughter goes to Campbell University so I follow their sports and try to see her in the stands.

My wife watches a lot on Hulu.

Disney plus is good is you are a Star Wars fan mandalorian is a good show. And of course you can watch Hamilton

Watching it now and TW looks pretty good, considering Harding is not his favorite spot (just as I write this he blades it over the green at 16...LOL). Short game is saving him...

I know CBS is producing the ESPN+ coverage but this is incredible to watch.  Golf shot after golf shot after golf shot.  Limited commercial interruptions. Great commentating.  In my mind, it proves CBS can do it for regular Tour events, they just choose not to!

Adam Scott never ceases to impress me with his wardrobe.  Classic colors, muted, understated; no wild prints or outlandish colors.

I was actually thinking he had forgotten how to dress. Yes the colors are fine but they seem ill fitting.

I have to wait until tonight to see the replay of today's PGA Championship round.  Watching the U.S. Women's Amateur Championship... that's all TGC's operating budget can afford presently 🙂 😞.  Some dang good golf being played however; these gals are getting after it.

He wore joggers a few times last year.  In an interview he said he likes the muted colors.

To me, he looks like what we would have saw in high def when Arnie was a young buck. Pants waiting for floods, black shoes, and floppy collared polos.

Not trying to poke the bear, to each their own, but my thoughts here are they are better than skin tight white pants like half the field wears... its all about freedom of movement.

Haotong Li still out there at TPC Harding Park on the practice grounds. He teed off 10 hours ago. I can't see how continuing to hit balls is going to help him in any way going into the weekend.
