Even more untouchable than he already was, with the added benefit of better durability, I think.I would love to see what Tiger in his early 20's would be like with modern sports science analysis etc and what they could actually get out of him.

That sounds like the swing speed which is measured in mph.Back in my days as a part time Uber driver while paralegalling at global law firms, I met a gentlemen who's son works as a performance sports scientist and works with some pretty big players in the golfing world. He worked with Rory in assisting him with improving his torque to get larger driving distances and not cripple his back ala Tiger.
When Rory first came to see him, he was pumping out something like 95 (what ever the measurement for it was) and they managed to get him upwards of around 110-115. He said, that was a dramatic improvement and they were extremely happy, but it was nowhere near Tiger in his prime. Apparently peak Tiger was somewhere up around 135-140 which they said just boiled down to freakish genetics.
There are some very intriguing amateurs now turning pro. Hovland and Matt Wolff leading the charge. Matt Wolff has the ultimate modern swing, be very intriguing to see how he deals with life on the tour.Impressive run from Koepka. Although I find him and his game a bit boring, he is just such an athlete and sportsman. The type that you know would be just as great at another sport if he hadn't chosen golf.
From a personal point of view it was fantastic to see how well Viktor Hovland did in another major. He turns pro today and he looks like he could on to do really great things. He led the field from tee this weekend, can shape the ball both ways and has that Roryish height to even his long irons that comes in handy. He also seems to have the right mindset and improves when things are at stake.
Hovland was 32nd at the Masters now 12th in the US Open. That’s incredibly impressive from an amateur.Impressive run from Koepka.

These guys are of such a high standard now they’re pretty much pros a year or two before they actually become professional.Hovland was 32nd at the Masters now 12th in the US Open. That’s incredibly impressive from an amateur.
Yeah College golf now is unreal.These guys are of such a high standard now they’re pretty much pros a year or two before they actually become professional.
Yeah, it’s special. He’ll play the next four PGA events so will be interesting to see how he continues.Hovland was 32nd at the Masters now 12th in the US Open. That’s incredibly impressive from an amateur.
The caddy is trolling him now, handing him the wrong club. He hasn’t realized it yet.What is going on with Speith? Missed the cut at the Travellers and seriously looks nothing like the player that set world alight in 2015.
He's a spoilt brat and thinks the world is against him and that's always in his mind so his game has gone to shitWhat is going on with Speith? Missed the cut at the Travellers and seriously looks nothing like the player that set world alight in 2015.
It's just giving me hope I too one day can play golf like Rory!Ouch, massive choke job. Its tough to watch to be honest.
Same! I cant judge, I'm lucky to make it round a pitch n putt course with any balls left.It's just giving me hope I too one day can play golf like Rory!
I'm usually +4 after the first hole too.
Hopefully it kick starts his round, needed that wee bit of luck. Come on Rory.Rory found his ball on the 5th, and then managed to get away with a par, extremely lucky imo
Was only 4/1. I was tempted last night as thought he was too short outright, didn’t bet as was hoping for bigger odds.He won't make the cut, would have got some immense odds on that from the bookies too!
That's a good price for missing a cut tbh, not as good as I've had expected with all the buzz about him before hand though, thought he'd be closer to 6/1 - 7/1 tbh.Was only 4/1. I was tempted last night as thought he was too short outright, didn’t bet as was hoping for bigger odds.
Really needs to claw back to atleast par today imoRory finding his feet a bit.
Im not so sure. There is a lot of fluctuation in the scores. But one things for sure he cant fall any further behind. If he finishes within 5 or 6 shots of the lead at the end of today he would probably be happy enough given how he started.Really needs to claw back to atleast par today imo
