Not to mention the insane amount of roll that shot got, looked like a St. Andrews shot.

No one was getting any roll at all and then that...

You are a good golf analyst but you are spectacularly wrong here and I just rewatched it - Rory knew it was nails.

A low cut on a soggy course like Valhalla was lucky to run as much as it did.

I'm not wrong. If he wanted to hit a runner into the green, he would have played a slinging hook out to the right. A player who hits a high draw must have an inside out swing path. A low shot that starts left and peels right must have a strike from the outside in. It's a matter of physics. He was saved by the gear effect of the club. Besides, the course was soggy enough that. Playing a bleeding low shot into a left hand pin would make no ****ing sense. It's the equivalent of trying to hit a 50 yard cut off of 13 tee at Augusta.

While that was an extremely entertaining golf tourney, I see nothing special about the golf course. Very plain for any PGA tourney, let alone a major.

I've been having a slight back issue so I've backed off my golf for the last two to three weeks. For better or worse I'm going back at it on Thursday or Friday. I want to take my game to a higher level but that's gonna be hard if I can't hit my position at address. Specially on wedges and awkward lies. You have to be able to "sit" and I was struggling with that.

I've been going crazy with just healing and not going to the course. From my experience in life I known I've done the right thing but I still feel like a wuss.

Kevin Sutherland a par on 18 away from 58 on the Senior Tour. On a par 72 track as well.

Chokes, settles for 59

Utter nonsense. Here's the hole map for Valhalla, #10 is middle right. As you can see its a left to right approach and there's no way to play "a slinging hook". That's spectacularly wrong and the map will educate you.

There's only one way to get there in two: hit a 300+ drive to the center or LH side. Then cut it in. Period. And that's exactly what Rory did.

Please quit showing your ignorance. Rory himself said it was a lucky shot in an interview after the round and not how he tried to play it. If you've played serious golf, you could tell when he hit it that he came right over the top and yanked it. It was what we call a "quality miss" - period. Every golfer gets lucky at times, even the pros.

So, I'm two weeks away from the annual guys golf weekend. Heading to Memphis this year, playing Southwind, Colonial, Mirimichi and another I'm not familiar with.

Anyone here have experience with any of said courses?

No Ryder Cup fans? USA is down going into the 4th session. They need to get their act together and bring that Cup home.

'Hamas' Jenkins 09-27-2014 08:14 AM

Don't know why Watson wants to use Furyk so much. Guy is one of the worst players in Ryder Cup history. A bunch of pars is worthless in this format.

Yeah his record isn't good but he's played good golf all year and he does have the experience.

I've never played in the Memphis area. I'm heading for Hilton Head in a couple weeks to play in a 54 hole tournament. I'm playing at Bear Creek and Hampton Hall. I talked to a guy out there and he said those were the better courses to play. More like country clubs then resorts and they don't get as much play.
