So in the first pose t you asked a question saying you don't know the answer, but now a bunch of guys that you admit have more knowledge than you are wrong?

On a tour that sets the courses up for the winner to be 30 under. If steph played in 5 more events he'd card at least a 90 in one of those rounds, did you watch him in the charity thing with Phil? I'm not sure he would have broken 100 hitting cups.

Which without context is totally irrelevant.

Sure it does, ones a professional, one doesn't touch his clubs half the year.

Like I said, steph, who's good, would card at least a 90 if not a 100 if he played 5 tournaments

I am not interested in arguing with you. You and Mingo can beat each other up.

Steph is trying as hard as he can to score. Smylie is trying to work on specific things to get his game to where he needs it to be. It's comparing apples to oranges, which you wouldn't know because as you said yourself, you aren't educated in the subject.
I'm not going to argue with you anymore because you are smarter than everyone else even when you say you aren't. Just know, every poster in this thread has disagreed with you, but you are still right.

He went out and shot 71 and then 86
Smylie would beat Steph by 10

Seriously though what is next for Smylie? I dont know all the rules for how much eligibility he has left etc.

Smylie would 100% definitely embarrass Steph, even though the one Korn Ferry event Steph played he shot right in line with Smylie

Correct.

Now invert your logic to that one time smylie was in the final group of the Masters or won a PGA Tour tournament shooting like 62 on Sunday.
Again, not a single person with an ounce of knowledge would agree with you, but because you keep repeating your one useless point you are correct.

Smylie when he had his game together would demolish steph curry. Current Smylie scores seem to be on par with guys like Curry. That is why its sad to see

I’m a 4 handicap. I could have one of those rare bogey-free rounds where I shoot 2 or 3 under and Smylie could have a terrible day and I beat him.
If we played 100 times and Smylie is truly engaged, I may get lucky and beat him once or twice. Most of the time, though, he’s gonna smoke me. Same with Steph and most other amateur golfers.

His problem is mental. And it’s probably only occurring when he’s playing in a tour event. I’m sure he’s putting up 60’s in most casual rounds with friends.

He could revert back to old habits and shoot 73 or 74 at worst every time, but these guys are pros. He's committed to changing his swing forfeiting short term results for long term success.
And it may not work plenty of guys have tried to change things unsuccessfully, but you are cant see the Forrest through the trees.
Same thing is happening to Rickie at a smaller scale. He's dropped like 40 spots in the world ranking in the last year. He could go back to laying his swing off at the top and get back to 30 in the world, but in his mind the way to maximize his chances for elite success he has to commit to his swing change despite his bad results.

I think Tyga nailed it, mental

Well that's just wrong, directly from the horses mouth.

Could be part mental, especially with the bad results. I'm sure it's hard to stay the course, but there is certainly a physical aspect to it.
Again, guys have tried stuff like this before and failed. Justin Leonard is a great example. Others have had success like Bryson.

I will add one more comment. I know a former tour player that won one time and was a Ryder cupper. He got married and had kids and eventually lost his card. We played together a few years ago at the wetlands from the tips. He shot 65 and never broke a sweat. The course rating is 75.1 with a slope of 135. These guys can still play.
