+20.

I hate seeing this shite. I grew up playing golf with him. He was younger than me but always kicked my arse. His parents are great people. Hopefully he can find success in whatever his future holds.

I follow him scores weekly. He has such great "offense" can't turn 6 into 5 and 5 into 4. At the San Antonio tourney he was tied for 2nd on Thursday then missed the cut...sad for him.

He needs to take 3 months and go somewhere like Sea Island and just work on his game with a good pro.

He needs a new swing coach and mental coach.

Let me add - he seems like a first class guy - I am pulling for him to make it back.

He’s a very nice guy and super approachable. Saw him on campus one day and asked him for a picture and we talked for about 5-10 minutes and he was super genuine and appreciative.

Watched him play a few holes at the Houston Open last year and he was struggling. Had just made a double-bogey and he looked up at me and saw my LSU shirt and took the time to come up to me, give me a fist bump and a “geaux tigers”

Rooting for him and hoping he can get things turned around!

Dude just hasn't been the same since he hit the biggest stage on Sunday at Augusta and couldn't handle it. It's a shame for someone with that much talent and a great personality

Guys, take your dick out of LSU and realize this dude isn’t good. Outside of being an LSU grad and friends with the SB crew, he’s a joke.

He’s a mental midget.

Nobody would ever dare do anything to my corn flakes but let’s be real. Smylie isn’t a PGA golfer but everyone here thinks he is. If he wasnts part of the LSU klan or friends with spieth, Fowler’s an Thomas then he would be some other Korn ferry cock smoker.

The guy shot 61 on Sunday to cone from 7 behind to win on the PGA Tour as a rookie then in his rookie season played his way into the Masters Sunday final pairing.

That's pretty big shite.

He’s got the talent and yeah we are talking about him
Because he went to LSU. If you go to LSU, root for LSU or live in br. You pull for LSU players and grads.

I’d compare him kind of to Paul Dunne who played in the final round of the Open before imploding. Very solid golfer who can get hot, but not ever great (in comparison). But Smylie lost it mentally after that and Dunne appears to have righted the ship. Hopefully Smylie can get it back soon.

He also doesn’t claim to be a professional golfer. I’m sure he has a career and excels at it. I like Smylie because of his LSU ties but the guy hasn’t done shite on tour since that Masters run which seems like forever go. Now he’s throwing up +20 at a Koran Ferry event

First off, Smylie claims to be a professional golfer because he is one. He has a win on tour and over $1M in career earnings so he cant just go back to playing the BBQ tour even if he wanted to. If the guy obviously has the game to do it why not keep trying as long as he can get exemptions into the field? Has to be better than whatever cubicle you're sitting in today.
