    So now Rory is the worst driver on the planet but the best wedge player. Glad to see he’s like all of us, as soon as something improves the other part of your game falls to shit.

    Not sure what was worse

    1. Featuring the 11th hole when the last group was on 17 because Ion had to get their analytics ad in.

    2. Seeing Finau and JT’s drives on 72nd hole in playing through

    Few random golf thoughts as I settle in to do nothing all day at work..

    Rory has kind of made himself part of the story by being on the players committee and always being willing to answer questions and give quotes on Liv. It as well to a lesser extent. They came out and delivered yesterday.

    The game is in a great place with guys that are really good and I think pretty likable. I'd add Morikawa/Scotty/Burns/Homa/Vik/Varner(although he may leave) to that list. Leaving a ton of guys off I'm sure.

    For the Open I'm having a hard time not loving Rory and Jt. Rory appears to be dialing the wedges in so watch the fuck out. Jt been solid as shit. I'll be betting Finau top 10 for sure.

    Right before they got hot I locked in Scheffler and Cam Smith for the majors at really good prices. Pretty happy about that.

    Was gonna take Rory at The Open but considering him for this week after this win. I didn't watch this week but think I read his driver wasn't great. If true that may push me off taking him at The Country Club.

    He hit it a mile. A lot of his missed fairways were first cuts down by the hole. Also hit it into a green side bunker on a par 4 yesterday.

    Rough. Next to the bunker and then left the chip on the lip. If it was Tiger Nike would have made it fall in.

    Start of the week he was bombing drives per usual then late Saturday and on Sunday he hit three drivers I’d never seen him hit before. Like quick toe hooks which flew 235 yards. Really strange. But his wedge play was insane yesterday.

    Just finished a little weekend trip to Oglebay WV. Seriously considering giving up golf. It’s too damn hard and I can’t fix my own issues. It’s something new/different each time out, lol.

    Good primers on Brookline, a course most of us have never seen or at least remember being played.

    Yeah, I've seen the highlights of the 1999 Ryder Cup a million times, I'm sure my dad was watching live. I knew nothing about courses or course architecture, all I knew was I liked watching Tiger.
