Sergio won't qualify to play and he will have ruined any chance of captaincy by the LIV defection so no idea why he's decided to come back unless he has one eye on the seniors tour
If necessary they will simply buy new trees, fully grown, and plant them. Money is no option, they can do it if they want to.Huge if true...only a rumour right now but...
It seems Augusta lost a few trees to the hurricanes
It's been said that you can see the 13th green......from the 13th tee......
Could be a significantly different look to the Masters next year....
Shame about the anchoring though........
They are a bit silly, they look very at odds with what a natural golf swing looks like. They could easily say the max length of putters is 36 inches.When these players do it its so close to the chest its indistinguishable to my eye whether its anchored. As bad as it looks, (& it looks really bad) unless I was there with a credit card to slip between thumb/chest then I just have to believe in the on-site refs being content they can’t prove a definitive anchor
I kinda wish they'd got rid of long putters when they had the chance
I wish they had just kept it as it was - there was no need to ban anchoringWhen these players do it its so close to the chest its indistinguishable to my eye whether its anchored.

Apart from it isn't a proper strokeI wish they had just kept it as it was - there was no need to ban anchoring
I think the opposite - the very first time someone turned up with a long putter and the broomhandle putting style, they should have said right there and then "No - that's stupid. You can't do that. Just putt properly."I wish they had just kept it as it was - there was no need to ban anchoring

I forget the stat, but weren't a high % of the US collegiate golfers anchoring as the coaches were convinced of an advantage - which prompted the rule change

My eyesight is not 20/20 anymore but good enough, think Langer would have sent him a well done as well.Shame there isn’t any definitive proof of it

That's because you've got used to it now though. Imagine they'd never been used before and someone invented it today. You'd look at it and think "what the hell is that?". I don't just think it's right and don't understand why it was allowed in the first place; for me the art of putting is in stroking it like you would with any other club (just shorter, obviously). But I'm probably not explaining myself very well.It is putting properly - there is no harm in it at all
No it isn't rule 14-1bIt is putting properly - there is no harm in it at all
They said something like 10-15% were using anchoring - it was typical overreacting
