Sage Valley flyover by Jeff Marsh
So nice I watched it twice

Sage Valley Golf Club in Aiken, SC is one of the best hidden gems in the country. And certainly one of the most pure golf courses you will ever find. A 200...

Rory was headed out to see Butch and his daughter Poppy asked “where are you going”? He said “I’m going to take a golf lesson” Poppy said “But daddy, you already know how to play golf” The wisdom of a child. That and a great wedge game could do it after ten years. I love Masters week!

Looking at the recent changes to the WCS (World Handicap System) 2024.

“Many shorter and par-3 courses are eligible for a Course Rating™ and
Slope Rating™, making the system more accommodating for all players.”

Since I still don’t have a hole-in-one after about 20,000 attempts. I think I’ve seen at least 10 in person. Would it now count on a par 3 course?

Azinger said Cantlay’s lob shot from a bad lie on 18 needed a positive angle of attack? I get that sometimes a feeling can be contrary to what is actually happening to produce a shot but he said AoA needs to be +. I’ve never measured, but seems weird, curious.

Nice shot Xander! Just hits lob out of a sketchy lie in the rough. Took a divot and hit it like bunker shot. Plenty of acceleration.

Rory just smooths a 3-wood 280
onto the front of the green. High draw that rolls about a foot. Just looks torqued like a spring at top. Rubber band stretched at top, then just let’s it go.

Rahm’s shot just bounced off the pin. Those pins look pretty heavy and wide. I know they need those for the wind. It would be nice if any shot that hit the pin went in the hole. Maybe cover the pin in glue. I remember when Tiger hit the pin at Augusta and his ball bounced back in the water and he made triple. RyderCup2023

I’m not sure the winner of the first match wins the cup 60% of the time is statistically significant. It’s about 7% to points needed to win. It helps but not insurmountably significant.

Go USA, but predicting a Slim Europe victory. Course setup, home course fans and 30 years since last win will be tough to overcome.

People need to approach creativity differently because some people are naturally creative while others need to start with solving a problem.
