Thanks for posting. Any backstory on this? Either that don't know he's a golf God on social media or they saw his true colors here https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMapFw6sfXL/

I don't even see how some of these posters can even be serious. Probably aren't, just trolling. But Niemann is playing a hyper limited field on easier courses against only about 4-6 guys that can compete on pgat. His stats from LIV are effectively useless.

and we know what happened to Jack :)

DJ had "generational money" before he went to LIV! So tired of that lame excuse. it's as nauseating as Sprewell saying "gotta feed the family!"

Pretty clear people are gullible in part because of their social media consumption. BDC is an elite golfer and has a bazillion dollars but he doesn't have one thing, and he can never buy it either, "Class" https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMapFw6sfXL/

Correct. But I used winning First Major as the starting point of the major win rate.

Since Scottie's first major win, 2022 Masters, 4 wins of last 16 majors played --25% win rate. Tiger over his first 16 majors played since his first major win was 5/16 or 31.25%. Tigers next 4 years (16 majors played) was 3/16 or 18.75%. We shall see how Scottie compares over the coming years.

Could you imagine if Greg Norman destroyed lockers every time he blew an opportunity to win a major? It would be absolute carnage 🤣😂🤣

That's sound good. What possibly go wrong with that 😂

A bit hyperbolic don't you think? If you and your buddies don't want to hit out a divot or any other fairway imperfection then simply institute LCP within your group. It's within the rules of preferred lies. No big deal. As far as formal competition with more than 1 foursome, then you'd better be prepared to provide detailed written rules and definitions of when relief is and is not entitled. When does a divot stop being a divot? If you can't do that then I guarantee you that some guys will "fluff" every ball claiming some type of fairway imperfection, and I don't think you want that or you've completely changed the game.

I'm with you. Scottie is what greatness looks like. He makes amazing golf look almost routine because he's so good. I like JJ because he's a struggling underdog that's suddenly doing great. I love to see that but he's definitely NOT exciting unless you consider the backstory. Spieth is exciting because it's fun to watch him get out of all the trouble he gets into. I've always thought watching any pro get out of trouble is good TV. It's not necessarily the best golf but it's interesting golf.

Since Scottie's first major win, 2022 Masters, I count 4 wins of 16. That's 25% win rate. Tiger over his first 16 majors played since his first major win was 5/16 or 31.25%. Tigers next 4 years (16 majors played) was 3/16 or 18.75%.

Thanks for posting. Just reconfirms why I can't stand this fake. Amazing how many gullible people exist that think otherwise.

If you MUST then give a player one free relief per round for any shot resting in the fairway. They can use one free relief if they land in a divot. But If they land in a divot a second time during the same round then play it as it lies. For the record I don't think there needs to be any divot relief but that's how I'd propose to solve it if forced to come up with a relief solution.

By the numbers and majors it's Scottie all the way. So Scottie. But hard not to tip your hat at Rory. Rory accomplished a significant milestone that will be etched into history by becoming only the 6th person to get the grand slam.
