2020 Professional Golf Thread

Watching the football just now - huddles and cuddles seem to be the order of the day at Man U v Sheff U - it's not just America

Fair point but you can't really compare golf with a contact sport like football. There's no point maintaining social distance on goal celebrations when you're jostling with each other in the penalty area.

Will Liverpool clinch the title before wave 2 rolls in and kills the season?

You can distance when able though - the first matches back didn't have people hugging in huddles or goal celebrations, just as the first day of the PGA tour returning largely saw people acting sensibly.

As to the other question I'm sure there is a football thread for that.
 
I see another withdrawal from Denny McCarthy having tested positive :(

In the golf seems Brysons hitting it even further this week, too far at times!!! Course has very little defense against the top guys it seems, could do with greens drying out a bit more

Apparently, the local area is experiencing drought conditions. I can understand keeping the greens alive, but a bit more life in the fairways would make them think twice before bombing simmering down there which flies 320 and stops dead. Just hitting darts is pretty one dimensional for these guys.
 
I don't know about you but after he hit that all I could think was how horrific his drop was going to be and then as soon as he gets to it and you remember he's a lefty it all changes.


id love to see where the first drop finished that he then redropped, ball wasnt on the path and looked in play to me

he also looked on a complete diagonal to where the ball actually was when working out which side was nearest point of relief and marking the 2 sides

and we wonder why in the roll up they all think its nicest point of relief ;)
 
Although DJ looks so chilled out on the course, actually looks stoned most of the time, there was definitely some adrenaline flowing through him when he belted his tee shot on 18. Think it was 16 yards longer than any other drive all week!

Another season with a win, that's an amazing record he's got going.

I watched it last night until they went off for storms. He was getting off line a little, had huge luck not to go into water on one hole, but his putting was top notch. That putter may be ugly but he was not missing with it.

As you say, that is a heck of a record he has.

Nice to see the guy who came second, Kevin Streelman. With all the talk of muscle bound bombers he was built like a local club player, just with 100 x more talent :D

18th tee was an interesting comparison, I heard the commentator say it was 297 yards to carry the left fairway bunker:
Penultimate group, Hughes' drive took a couple of bounces then rolled into the bunker, Streelman's ball flew straight into the bunker on the full. Final group, Todd's ball landed short and didn't reach the bunker, DJ's ball carried the bunker by a good 20 yards. All four players hit driver.

Streelman not short, he was getting it out there, just not into bomber territory. Shows what timing and technique can do!
