Lewisham smashing the market
I've only backed one golfer in this tournament, and that's Patrick cantlay at 22-1, that's the gods honest truth. (so expect a cantlay blowout in round two.) will be annoyed if fat boys wins, as he was the other one I thought about backing. rickie I wouldn't touch with a bargepole at the moment. head seems to have gone. he's talking about winning a major next year but at the moment he'd struggle to get over the line in a web.com event. tiger and some others looks like they have got the deckchairs out. and who can blame them? |

People slagging off Rickie but he won from 7 back last year and he's already positioned himself there. Master strategist.

Know the rules are complicated, but how on earth was that a golf shot from Tiger?
|
|
By:
He knows he double hit it, I knew he had double hit it without a replay, Fehrety and the 2 in the studio new he had double hit it, yet the new rule means he gets away with it legally now?? you just cant make a 2 inch back swing and hit it that far, no replay needed.
|
|
By:
If it's not a double hit surely it's a scoop. I just don't see how it's a legitimate shot. Even if the TV rule means it's hard to impose the penalty, Tiger should take an easy PR win in a meaningless tournament and be honest enough to call it on himself.
|
|
By:
He said the pics show he double hit it, and as Beem says that's enough for him to call the penalty on himself, as any honest person would do.
|
|
By:
Yup, agreed.

nice of tiger to take up hockey halfway through his round.

By:
Agree with TB here hard to understand why Tiger just didn't call it on himself. Would have been a positive pr spin for him in an event that he is highly unlikely to win and doesn't really mater in the grand scheme of things.

The Bahamas event will fall in the same post-Thanksgiving slot next year – a week after the Australian PGA and a direct clash with the Australian Open in Sydney the week before the Presidents Cup in Melbourne. Multiple sources in the American golf media anticipate a Wednesday-Saturday run for the 2019 event to ensure easier logistics for the trip to Australia to ensure players, caddies and families arrive in time. Woods’ entourage is expected to formally announce arrangements after this week’s trip Down Under. Woods, on Presidents Cup captaincy debut, naturally has an interest in ensuring his squad arrives in Victoria ready to take on Ernie Els’ International team at the site of the hosts’ only victory, now way back in 1998. The 14-time major winner said earlier this year that he wouldn’t mind if his team members opted to play in the Australian Open instead of in the Bahamas, insisting only that they’re match fit and not coming off a month’s rest, an issue he said was the main problem for his team 20 years ago. But after interviews with Associated Press senior golf correspondent Doug Ferguson in the Bahamas today, you did not need forensic training to confirm a crime that’s about to be perpetrated on Australian golf. In all likelihood, the Hero’s invitational field will comprise most, if not all, of the American team for the biennial Presidents Cup, supposedly the showpiece for all golfers ineligible to compete in the Ryder Cup between the USA and Europe in the opposite years. |

Dave Gilbert, founder and CEO of National Funding, had the winning bid (surpassing the $50K paid last year by Jim Williams) at 'Tiger Jam' - his annual fundraising event in Las Vegas for his TGR Foundation. Other auction items included trips to Albany in the Bahamas and Diamante Cabo San Lucas, where Woods designed a golf course; each went for $20,000. A Virtual Green putting machine also auctioned for $22.5K. Over the years, the event has generated more than $21 million for his foundation, which focuses on educational programs and youth development.
