I don’t believe it’s televised. Just been refreshing every 10-15 minutes. They lost first hole but now 1up thru 7.
Former Southeastern golf teammates Grady Brame Jr. and Lawrence Allan just won their semifinal match on the 22nd hole. Finals coming up probably in an hour or so.

This is a national USGA event with ~2500 entrants. Winners get a spot in the U.S. Am among other things.

Can track scoring below.

Aaron Rai is a similar comp to Webb

In what world?
This is a phenomenal leaderboard. Wish every tournament was “set up” like this.

Mr Jim Moore putting $40m into the re-build…

That’s a pretty jaw dropping number.

This is very sad. Hammond downtown is a great spot.

They’ve removed a couple of tennis courts for the driving range/short game expansion. I heard they are putting up a net too which is great and will keep balls off #2 fairway.

Looking forward to the reno. Ironically greens are in best shape I have seen them in like 10 years. Current conditions are not sustainable though and the reno is sorely needed.

You seem to have mis-interpreted the meaning of the data

I understand exactly what the data is. But these threads always go the same way.. a bunch of highly educated, successful people talking about how they are above the average or median. As if that means anything when those numbers are so terrible.
quote:

Average is not as useful since there are large savers.

Median isn’t useful either.

50% of society are essentially worthless. I don’t need them included in any comp numbers to try to determine how I am doing.

Let me see median numbers of minimum college educated professionals with STEM degrees.

I'm using my 56 and using the bounce. Dropping that clubhead and letting it kick off the hard ground.

So… you blade it intentionally?
I use my lowest bounce wedge on tight lies inside 100 yards which is my 56°.

You want to reduce bounce on tight lies. I’ll also play it a little back in my stance to add forward press and reduce bounce.

And I almost punched my car stereo after the “don’t stereotype” comment by Sid Edwards. frick that guy.

Sid campaigned on being tough on crime and gets up there and says that stupid shite. Infuriating. frick him.

I voted for another republican last election. If Landry follows through on this I’ll be first in line to vote for him.

You are out of touch with reality. Stupid frick.

On etrade around lunch there was a bid at $0.26 and ZERO ask. Nothing for sale at all.

I put in a limit order at $0.26 which never filled. Check a few hours later and bid is still $0.26 and the ask is at $0.47 and the last sale showed like $0.35.

Had a friend text me from Augusta today from his Apple Watch asking for updates. Felt like I was breaking the law.

I hope they outlaw these faggy watches in the future too.
