    The previous guy was probably Padraig. He went from red hot to ice cold,and never got it back.
    Who was the last guy with more Majors than regular tour wins?
    Surely it could only be Cabrera? 2 PGA tour wins, 1 Euro tour win. 3 majors.

    TIL: This is bad.

    I suppose (in a previous life) I am used to covering other individual sports that also had a team behind them and it was commonplace to say "we" when talking broadly about the week's performance.
    Obviously it'd be ridiculous to say 'we' for some specific action/moment in time.

    The caddy and the player are a team. I have no issue with the “we” factor.

    The great thing about a players career is you can sit back and analyze how many majors they won and how many regular events they won.

    Just watched the replay.

    That was awesome... Just awesome, thought Scotty was in for it when he stuffed it on 17.

    Brooks is a machine. And he is the biggest unit on the golf course... I thought woodland was big... Holy shit.

    And Tiger, Scotty, insanely good golf to watch. If Scotty could putt and if Tiger gets that driver straighter... 2019 is going to be fun

    Scott drained them well for a decent stretch. Then again, my expectations of him are based on his form 8 years ago when even I was a better putter than he was (kpac certified®).

    Woods's front nine, jagging four birdies and shooting three under without hitting a single fairway was a 'How To Scramble' clinic.

    This was special though:

    Haven't heard a roar like that since DC chipped in at Pelican Waters final hole.

    Golfwrx reported that Scotty was carrying two putters (one long , one short) on Thursday and Saturday, dropped one of wedges to allow that.

    Apparently something to do with the long putter not being as good for really long putts.

    Yet after finishing his third round, they showed him practicing short putts on the practice green with the short putter!

    I don’t think it’s complete rubbish.You don’t need the bulk for golf and it can do more harm than good.Look at DJ and Jamie Sadlowski. They hit it just as far as Koepka and are lean.

    Yep cos he only finished 3rd. I think if he carried 3 putters he would have a better chance of winning it

    Don’t agree.
