Slab gave my answers. Well done that man.

Only 2,3, 6 & 10 can be answered accurately - and the answer to each is clearly Yes, they can.

(btw in the case of 6 it's really, really easy to do)

the 'can' questions as opposed to the finite requests.


seems a strange first post after waiting nearly 6 mths from registering.

Much as I like Charley Hull as a golfer and personality, there's no way - in 2015 - that she can win a Major imo. Though I would love to be proved wrong!

Failing to qualify for a LPGA card, through Q-School, yet being #1 on LET must have been a bit of a shock!

Welcome along

1. Will McIlroy complete the career Grand Slam at the Masters? No. He could but don't think he'll win it this year. He will at some point
2. Can Tiger Woods make a successful comeback in 2015? Define successful - he may win on tour but no major
3. Can Charley Hull win a major? Definitely but not yet. Still learning the game at this level
4. Will Dustin Johnson tell us why he missed so much golf last year? - No chance....until the book comes out
5. What will be the impact of new bosses in key roles? Hard to quantify but golf needs to get it's image to the public into 21st century
6. Can the distance golf balls travel be reined back? - Yes but they won't be used.
7. Will we be interested in the Olympic Qualifying tables? No sure I'm that fussed about it being an Olympic event. Maybe when it starts
8. Will we see a progressive decline in the use of anchored putting methods? The rule changes come into effect soon. I think that's a part of why counter balanced putters are now en vogue
9. Will Sang-Moon Bae play a full season? Who knows. Sure they will find a way to sort it out so everyone saves face
10. Can a golfer win 2015 BBC Sports Personality of the Year? Yes but it depends what else happens and when. The public tend to vote about what they remember hence Hamilton's recent success (and BBC PR bias)
