US PGA this weekend

[Diamond]

Again watching the Sky coverage and someone said Bryson hit 1 fairway yesterday. 1 fairway....then Rory took an iron from the tee and promptly knocks it into the trees. Its pathetic for a professional in any industry but these guys are the best golfers in the world...right just not accurate then.

So as a 29 handicapper you struggle to break 100 and are calling a couple of the best golfers in the world pathetic. Look forward to seeing you having improved 2 shots a hole and giving them a hiding some time soon

Yes I am. I am Jack Nicholas in my job mate. ?
I would also add US Open is cited the hardest major. What a ridiculous situation for a sport to be in. All majors should be US Opens. If you dont hit the fairway and green then dont waste my time watching you. I dont mind Bryson as a person but he is shocking.
Only my opinion by the way and I am off 29. ?
Jim Furyk is King of the fairway.

That Jack Nicholas was one great playa ??

Wasn't that Gary...?

 

[Imurg]

Up to a point i think the OP is right.
They should have to hit more fairways and there should be a consequence to missing.
It should, on average, cost them half a shot or something like that.
It won't....but it should.

As a 29 handicapper I expect to see the best of the craft I am learning. Instead I am watching absolute dross for most tee shots. Like I said in my job if I didnt hit every fairway I would be out of a job.
This game needs to change for the TV as there is less skill than when I was watching Seve as a kid.

I’ve never seen Seve as a kid, as a adult he was brilliant

Ok ok. I cant even blame that on the typo either...which I am known for.?

 

[Diamond]

So Seve was hitting it 250 yards out of bounds then using his genius to spellbind us. Someone said to me that wit golf people get obsessed with driving. I can see it is the whole sport and this forum.?

I think the OP said it right in that 1 fairway for a pro anywhere is absolutely shocking.
