    Can you get The Sky Service without having a UK address? I already use Unblock for Netflix and Hulu.

    Didn't see a whole lot of him playing the last few days, but I figure you'd have to say he is back to being in the top bracket, though maybe not back at his 2012 best.

    One bad round at Quail Hollow this week screwed him out of possibly being in contention Sunday. Looks like he is going OK again.

    Coincidence that it was round one, after he chose to stay in Palm Springs instead of practicing at the course?

    Pretty sure he hit 70, 74, 69, 66. It was his second round that did the damage. Luckily he pulled it back on the back nine and just made the cut.

    He's close though, I'll stand by my (somewhat bold) prediction of him winning one event this year. It could all come together for one week.....

    He tore the back nine a new one every day, even on his bad round. Reckons the front nine is his kryptonite.

    He was something like +9 for the front and -12 for the back 9, crazy stats

    Rors killed the back 9 - 19 birdies and only two bogeys on back 9 over the four rounds. So he played the back 9 in 17 under, but was 8 over on the front 9. And how's this for awesomeness - he birdied the wicked tough 18th on EACH of the four days, and birdied 16/17/18 on both Sat and Sun. That's some serious golfing! If he'd played the front 9 at even only even par for the tournament he would've coasted to a five stroke victory over Kaymer. I'm sure he'll win this season...hopefully in a major...

    I read last night that it was a back 9 scoring record at Sawgrass.

    Where exactly was he dropping shots on the front 9? Cold putter, bad driving?

    Better to call it off now than wait 5 years for the missus to chase after you with a 9 iron.

    Too right.

    Hopefully now we can get back to watching him play some good golf.

    I get the impression that he lacks confidence. There is something in his game that is preventing him from playing with his eys - seeing it and just doing it. Which is what he appeared to do before he went over to Nike.
    Consciousness and awareness - awareness is being aware of what is happening and being aware of what is happening within ourselves while we are conscious. Where did I leave my glasses?

    I love him. He's so honest and upfront possibly at his own detriment. In all reality it's probably going to be tough to win this week but I hope he does well. He's such a real young man.

    It certainly will be interesting to see how his golf progresses now.

    A big weight lifted from his shoulders so no reason he shouldn't come out firing !!
