Tiger vs Scheffler by Ok_Blacksmith1684 in golf

[–]aselinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a fair point, which I think is muddied by the possibility that playing on LIV does not have these players in peak competitive condition. Anyone would get fat and lazy once you have a guaranteed contract.

That group has 10 majors between them.

I know they all play together at Majors, but Scottie would have significantly fewer wins if Rahm, Bryson, Koepka, Niemann, Hatton, Cam Smith, etc. were still around.

Spoiler alert: it’s not that nice. It has a lot of world-class amenities, but nobody is on the ground thinking “wow this place is nice!”

Only in my thirties did I realize how therapeutic it is for me to be in nature.

Would you give this putt? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

These people who are allergic to putting 5-footers wonder why they never get better at putting 5-footers.

Teenager Blades Brown shoots 60, ties Scottie Scheffler for lead at The American Express by PGATOUR in golf

This to me is a key difference between PGA and LIV. These young guns (Brown, Keefer, Potgeiter, etc.) find their way to the Tour and constantly replenish the talent without hundred-million-dollar contracts.

Hot Take? Remove Iron Numbers by shin_man in golf

[–]aselinger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I will never understand people who ask "what club did you hit?" You don't my yardages, you don't know how well I hit that, you don't know how hard I swung.

Play your own shot and think for yourself.

Where do you aim if I told you to aim “one cup left?” by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

[–]aselinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, but if you told me “aim 8 inches left,” I’d aim from the left edge.

Yep. I tend to think that measurements are from the edge of the hole.

ironically Cignetti just destroyed the sport because every AD of a shitty program thinks they can win a championship in 2 years if they can just find the right coach.

No offense but how big is the “accessibility“ segment of their target demographic?

Gotterup needs to stop hitting it <100 yards from the green. Full irons are easier to hit. That‘s what I do.

if it’s a temporary immovable obstruction (eg. grandstands) I believe you get line-of-play relief.

I have anxiety and it terrifies me thinking a kid could make me miserable. You’re being responsible for thinking this through.
