The Masters Golf

Never mind the Masters... I've been looking for golf tuition videos online as I get back into it and found Paige Spiranac

My swing might not improve but boy does she cheer me up ;-)

Because he's an insufferable, arrogant twat.

I heard Radio 5 doing some stuff on him in the summer. They didn't mention this part.

I thought his approach was interesting. He has taken a vary scientific approach to the game. Basically redesigned his clubs around some scientific principles as opposed to just doing what everyone has always done. Clubs are aloud to be a certain max length, so he has been experimenting with a few at max length, then a few shorter ones with different club heads on the same lenth shaft. The idea being that you can get use to a specific length better than having every club different to the next. He is a bit cagey on the specifics as to what he uses but I give him credit for experimenting.

The approach is allowed and he's a professional looking to maximise his gains, can't argue with that. It's just the way he carries himself, communicates and his general attitude which rubs people the wrong way.

The authorities need to review it anyway because the distance problem is just taking away the essence of the game.
 
Someone posted on Twitter what Bryson was hitting into the greens. Ridiculous. Even changing the ball for the Pros won’t make a difference as he’ll still hit it further. I heard Augusta was planting trees so maybe they will try combat people bombing it over the corners in future.

will level it out if he has to hit longer clubs into the green which negates his advantage, the difference between hitting irons into the green and wedges is tangible. It's not about standardising length, it's just about bringing those historical features on courses back into play to make it a fairer contest between player and course.

So many courses now have to be redesigned due to the distance problem.

That's the most incredible shot I've ever seen, I think.

I've watched this several times, remarkable. Just seems like incredible good fortune but the reality is that the 16th hole and trying to skip the ball onto the green is an Augusta tradition in practice rounds - else I could never imagine someone intentionally trying to skip the ball onto the green from so close

It was his birthday & his 2nd hole in one in practice rounds
