Yes indeed, golf is like that o_O We played in fairly strong winds yesterday, it used to smash my game apart when it was windy, I'm now getting settled with it and the key is to fully commit to the shot you choose - very similar scenario I think.
I chatted about the golf and coverage (and ways it may/could improve) for me its all about the golf.
The only bit i really feel the need to respond to is around it being an exhibition event and crass to the extreme - is that not a weekly occurrence on the PGA tour events? You said yourself...
I keep it as simple as possible, pick my target on the horizon (whatever that may be) and stick to my pre shot routine making sure everything is aligned then hit it. Blind shots don't seem to phase me since I've been playing links golf a lot at Silloth which involves a few blind shots on tee's...
I partly agree in return, Rory can occasionally turn it on full power on the back 9 on a Sunday but even if he doesn't then we still see a lot of him (the same with Spieth as well) Agreed it is frustrating, we would only like to watch some consistent golf coverage and preferably non biassed...
A TV report/story said a 6.5million dollar a year salary for him, plus bonuses. Also seen it on quite a few articles online if they are to be believed. There was breakdown of PGA finances on a report somewhere via one of the news channels I'll see if I can find it, quite an interesting read.
The problem with some of this is that if Rory had been 8 shots back, rather than tied or in the lead we would still have seen more of him playing that the actual leaders. How often is he 6 or 8 back with 3 to play and we are still seeing the majority of footage about him rather than the actual...
Late to the party... (and before I start I am not a Liv cheerleader, I enjoy watching golf, mens, women, amateur and all) Well, I for one enjoyed the first Liv event and hope to see it grow and develop, ideally where the field of players and event becomes the talking point rather than just the...
I play a Ping G400 driver - I tried the G410 and G425 with various shaft options and saw no improvement from my G400. I then tried a 3 wood shaft in the G400 and the difference was huge - longer and more consistent results. So I bought a custom built shaft, for the G400 driver and love it. I did...
Well done, a great score ??
Yes the wind well and truly picked up on the afternoon, we tee’d off just ahead of you. The morning there was barely a breeze ?
