Okay, here is a place for the Golfers to talk about tournaments, clubs, swing help or thoughts.

Today is the Players Championship, which I think ought to be the 5th Major. Largest pot in the PGA. The daunting 17th, which seems to bring excitement every year. At least we will get to see Sergio blow up yet again.

I am ready to see some water balls!

Encapsulates the entire attitude of this team…

Dude wipes his drive into the water and he acts like he couldn’t care less and then concedes the putt that you 100% make Fleetwood putt….

It’s pathetic.

Fleetwood is a pretty big choker, he could have missed a 2 foot 8 incher for sure

So, who's the US captain in '25? I love ZJ, but from his captains picks through today, seems like he wasn't the guy for the job.

Tiger. Need a captain that’s a little bit of an asshole and hates to lose. The US players looked like they didn’t give a shit the entire week.

A pitiful performance.

Yeah, the only logical choice really. I’m sure the guys on the team like Zack. But maybe someone who garners more respect is more ideal. Plus his players would more than likely take on Tiger’s attitude.

Leaving Cam Young, Glover, and Bradley off this team in lieu of Fowler, Spieth, and Thomas was criminal….

Too many captains want the “tried and true” instead of building a team that can actually win…

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10-01-2023, 10:09 AM

Fowler was playing pretty well this year. I totally get that pick. Thomas was the obvious head-scratcher. He and Spieth played in three matches together and mustered a half point.

TheGreatCassholio · 10-01-2023, 11:42 AM

Glad ZJ got to take everyone on a nice little guys trip where they played a little golf in their down time. If you don't really care if you win/lose or how you play, at least let the guys that want to play in it be part of the team going forward.

Yeah the fact that Thomas is on the team is laughable. He will be really good again someday but hes been awful for a while now.

DJ and Reed are far better players/competitors than any of those three (Young, Bradley, Glover) and have tremendous records in these competitions. Pretending that they ceased being among the top golfers in the world because they joined LIV was silly.

That was mostly Spieth's fault from the golf that I saw on Friday/Saturday. He was absolutely awful.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10-01-2023, 12:17 PM

Reed is a cheating bitch. I'd rather they lose that exhibition every time than play that shitbird.

There's no question about that, but he lives for this shit. They miss him.

Could’ve added them too….the guys I mention were actually playing in the lead up and all in form, gotta get out of this mindset of going for guys based off their name and constructing a team that’s hungry and wanting to go out there and compete.
