Hunter Mahan at Pebble

[Jensen]

Fantastic to see Hunter finish tied 11th at 5 under after round 1.
Hope he makes the cut to help get his mojo back.
Come on Hunter

I hope he gets a post lock down hair cut.

Think his hair was cut the last time he made a cut ?

 

[Jensen]

Poor guy duffed that not difficult chip at Celtic Manor...

What's your affiliation with him? He certainly dropped off the radar so far he's barely on the sonar...

BEST looking swing in the business.

Swing also admired by one Tiger Woods !

Just inside the cut at the moment -4 to play
Can't afford mistakes from here

I was hoping for a sensible answer.

Sorry to disappoint, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder ?️‍

In that case I bet Adam Scott's swing makes you want to wretch?

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Is there not still quite a lot of empathy for Hunter following his post Ryder Cup meltdown? Amidst the standard robotic golf interviews he was very human. A good while ago now I know but it sticks in the memory.

 

[Jensen]

So Hunter won’t be getting his haircut for at least another week

Just shows having a swing of beauty means nothing....

Tell me about it ?

 

[Jensen]

It’s incomprehensible that a guy who was in the top 10 and even top 5, can just fall off the cliff ?

 

[Wildrover]

People seem to think his game went after Celtic Manor but he won WGC and FedEx playoff events well after that, he was part of the US Team in 2014.

Pro golf is 95% between the ears.
The swing still looks good.

 

[Paperboy]

Tell me about it ?

It even looks good until impact on a chip

You can go off someone very quickly................

Luke Donald’s done it.
Real shame as such a good guy

Exactly. Endless examples that swing aesthetics have zero impact on golf game. I never get the kind of back-burner fascination with this Mahan guy. I watched his swing on YouTube and it doesn't look any different to a hundred other pros to me. ??‍ Maybe he should change it since he obviously doesn't win much anymore.

Would you recognise a one plane, and a two plane swing?

Plenty of three plane swings will be on show when we start playing again

I'll be happy with any sort of swing!
