Looking at the field in Napa, and I'm kind of surprised to see Jordan and Phil in the field. 
Must want to knock some rust off/work on their game before heading to Winged Foot next week, and playing against a fairly weak field (nobody in it from East Lake - as I glanced at the list)

Maybe their wives just wanted to get their drink on.

It’d be a really stupid shot for me to take because I was taught to do everything with my left shoulder and left arm (I’m right handed). I don’t even think about my right hand/shoulder. 

I’ll bet he was getting too handsy on his chips and slightly pulling chips and/or hitting them too cleanly and flying the hole. This is why he’s doing the one hander. It’s something a pro giving you lessons might have you do 10 times as a practice tool. 

It’s also a good way to chip when you’re lying 9 on the par 4 18th, need to get it up and down to break 100, and are so disgusted with yourself that you don’t give enough of a fuck about any of that to be bothered to put your beer down.

^^^^

was just coming here to post this.  had no idea.  just saw Stricker on the Golf Channel.  oh well, we'll just choke it away next year, i'm sure

Bryson is still gonna be a bad teammate for someone.  hopefully Morikawa makes the team.  he's in good shape, but a ways to go.

for the next team, the top 6 qualify on points.  last time, it was top 8.  so Stricker will have 6 captain's picks.  top 6 today are:

1.  DJ

2.  Bryson

3. Morikawa

4.  Koepka

5.  JT

6.  Webb

next 6 are:  Xander, Fat Pat, Finau, Berger, Wolff, and Gary Woodland.

Is there a less exciting PGA tour stop then the week after a major, out of the country, during a pandemic?
Must be one of the weakest fields of any tour stop.
The only hype I'm reading about is for Will Zalatoris, a Korn Ferry callup who finished T6 at Winged Foot last week
Oh well, better than no golf, but I'm certain I'll be watching football this weekend

Memorial Park is a decent recreational public course with some history. The pros are going to destroy it though. 

Have you played it since Jim Crane's Astros Foundation renovated it?  Tom Doak was the architect and it now plays to 7,300 yards.  Here is an excerpt from The Golf Channel's website:  “This course is going to make the Tour players really think about how they approach every hole,” said Butch Harmon, who played the old Memorial Park during his 16-year stint as a teaching pro in Houston and saw the redesign for the first time Tuesday. “You just can’t bomb it on every hole there.”

The pros may still destroy it, but it's now much more than a decent recreational public course.

Oh shit. Bryson might have to take his 8 iron out of the bag.

I think Bryson is a douche, but if I separate the person from his approach to golf, my opinion changes. Golf club tech, golf ball tech has been improving for years and as long as you play within the regulations, who gives a fuck if figure out a way to lap the field. Would lulz if he starts averaging 350 yds or some shit. That being said I have no idea behind the physics, and perhaps the incremental gains as a result of extending the driver shaft another 2.5 inches would only be a few percent.

Not sure when he blows up today - but Jordan is doing Jordan things, -2 after 4 holes, including a 60 footer for birdie,
Looking at the shot summary that was a chip in not a putt - still a Jordan thing

Had a triple on the card as well, you were right. He always just seems to have a hole or 2 each round where he explodes. It's gotta be excruciating.

Phil skips Shadow Creek to avoid a "letdown."  "Even if I beat all 78 guys, I made so much more money the last time I played it would be a letdown."  That's pretty gd funny.
