I enjoyed the PGA last night. Course was a test for them and there was some quality golf. As Nick Dougherty pointed out at one stage, it's nice to see them challenged.

Wonder if Bradley is harbouring hopes of teeing it up in the upcoming RCVery tight leaderboard so far.. No one ripping it up....-3 the best so far..
Rory lipped out for solo lead on par 3, 14th...then lipped out again for the par from 3ft....... He does miss some amount of short putts..

Well you jinxed McKibbin, poor finish.
Masaveu came out top of the young 'uns today.

Is it even possible to be a Playing Captain these days..?Wonder if Bradley is harbouring hopes of teeing it up in the upcoming RC

As in, are there rules against it?
Or is it practical?
If he somehow qualified I expect there'd be pressure to hand over the captaincy.

Practically more...
A new Captain would but u derby a lot of pressure that close to the event.....
I guess that's one reason to have a senior player in charge..one who has little chance of qualifying

They are going to be challenged even more today as the course dries out

Anyone else catch Rory's F bomb on 18 when he missed the bunker with his approach shot?

Being angry about that is something I will never relate to.

Sure is. Its a vastly overblown job with little of substance behind it. 'Lesser' captains have built it up as a serious job nearly there with winning a major - thats by those who didnt actually win majors. And with 17 ot whatever vice captains (jobs for the boys if ever there was), there are more than enough to buzz around in carts and do the TV interviews.

Do you come here just to criticize/make light of whatever?

What are we making of the Wyndham Clark ruling today. I’m not convinced that ball came to rest in it’s original pitch mark..
No slight on Clark here, he’d obviously be in no position to know or expect that his ball could have come to rest in someone elses pitch mark

Liv in the Mornings - PGAT in the Evenings

This might sound a bit odd.
Watching Phil Mickelson in the Grant Horvat videos, I noticed something interesting—he was playing really well and hitting his driver surprisingly straight, which has been his Achilles heel for years.
Now, of course, this isn’t tournament golf, but he did mention a new driver that he said is making a big difference.
To my knowledge, he hasn’t really contended in any LIV events so far, with his best recent result being T2 at The Masters since joining Liv.
But now, sitting T4 in Hong Kong, could there still be life in the old dog yet?

Pretty much the entire field on liv are still world class players
Not sure I could think of 5 PGAT players guaranteed to leave them standing on any given week
It's strong, just not as diverse as pgat

You actually want a number! Jeez
I reckon you're a good bloke Phil, I'd probably enjoy a round of golf with you, but your online persona...

What’s the issue -can people not question when a statement is made
Surely it’s ok to ask who is it you thinking are world class players on a tour
