Whos watching the battle between LA and Jupiter?

Not sure it’s a battle - more like the sacking of a city called Jupiter.

Tiger’s putting has been horrendous. Not even burning the hole.

Really like the concept. Has a few tweaks required but I reckon they're onto something here.

Reckon if you think of it more like a tv game show than comparing it to golf, it’s at least watchable. But geez they need a close game

Kisner has been worse than Tiger. That bladed bunker shot might have nailed the crowd if it didn’t almost break the flag. Who woulda thunk two part-timers would struggle?

Watched it again.

Disliked it less.

They need to somehow have a few more green complexes.

Must be protected at all costs.

Gum trees there also from memory?

In reality they do have bazillions of different green complexes with a revolving green and “six hundred hydraulic jacks!” But none of that is visible on screen.

The green itself is the same shape though?

Yep.

Same shape yes - but they can revolve it and change all sorts of gradients, not to mention changing grains - so that’s pretty different. Just hard to see on screen

Loved the $5 the win I had on Echavarria @ 80/1 in the Sony Open yesterday.

Character building stuff.

The worst way to lose is in a play-off when your on a few dollars, that so sucks, keep your chin up, he's virtually gone from a nobody to really playing well, amazing what a win does for your confidence. Nick Taylor on the other hand has won 5 times on tour, 5 times!

Now I know someone will come to his rescue but it just goes to show Golf is a funny game and it doesn't matter if your a better player or got more ability, he knows how to win, that's the secret, bad luck Pres, I really mean that, being a Kangaroo supporter makes it even more "sh*tty" that he got beat, keep having a go.

Cheers mate - as you say this just adds to years of character building defeats at Marvel Stadium and the like!

I am back on the horse this week however. Backing Elvis Smylie $10 the win at every tournament he plays for the next 5 years.

Taylor certainly hasn’t yet worked out how to play majors.

Third Leg Greg officially out as LIV CEO. A guy who was my boyhood idol then turned out to be a complete dick who has spent a lifetime burning bridges.

A quality individual who did wonderful thinks like taking his agent’s phone to call his side piece(later his third wife) so his first wife wouldn’t find out.

What an ordinary unit.

How apt.

I’m with you on this, he was my idol as well, destroyed me when he choked in the masters against Faldo .

Yes that's true, he's so hit and miss though, if he could be more consistent who knows.

When did the hate start for him? About when LIV started? Or when Rory and Tiger told you to hate him?

Hahaha TGL is the amusement park of all amusement parks.

Good to hear, I didn't back Elvis this week but he's a good player who I've backed a couple of times and at 151-1 that is good odds though this is a stacked field but sometimes golfers win in better fields than what you think they are capable of so Dubai Desert Classic is going to be an interesting tournament, Rory going for three in a row.

I don’t see TGL begging for OWGR points or qualification into majors like LIV have.

That would be like asking if your home sim could get points. Begging for points? There is not even an application for them.

So they should probably shut up about it being unfair that there are none available then.

Can't remember the last time it was mentioned but must say not paid much attention in off season. Points don't matter to them anymore, they will never get back the drop they took. The majors are picking the best players in the world and thats all that matters.
