Morikawa "undisputed best iron player on the planet." Hmm. But of course he can't be compared to this guy 70 years ago. Of course not.

The sky is blue and the sun sets in the west. I’m sure you’ll refute that too.

My plan is to get famous by becoming a Jack Nicklaus truther. Check out my channel at www.youtube.com/jackneverlandedonthemoon.

PSA: coverage of the U.S. Junior Am semis airing on Peacock at 15:00. One semi-final pits Luke Clanton (who beat CC of NC member and Junior Am favorite Jackson Van Paris in the R16) against Cohen Trilio (who made the semis of the '19 U.S. Am), while the other semis is Luke Potter vs Nicholas Dunlap (the 2021 Dustin Johnson Junior World Championship winner).

Randomly watched 2 or 3 holes of Matt Wolff on the coverage yesterday. He seemed to be hitting it all over the planet. So today I looked to see where he was...started from the bottom up and expected to see him a few over. Nope 69-69 (-4).

Guys are pretty good.

Everyone's favorite punching bag Grayson Murray trunk slammed after a dub on his first hole this morning. Not sure if injured.

#17 downwind? Look at the flag again, it's obviously in from the right. it blew the ball about 3 yards left just while the camera was on it. And if it were downwind the ball would never have reacted that way when it hit the green.

It might play downwind in October during a Santa Ana. It almost never plays downwind otherwise.

More Nicklaus 1 irons:

Quote:

I left myself 238 yards. A little wind was coming up, it was in my face. Uphill, to that green, over a bunker. And I don't know what possessed me but I said, "aw, 1 iron." Anyway, it was probably the best 1 iron I ever hit.

I believe this is a later model. The original 1 iron is in the USGA museum.

A "1" on the sole of an iron looks so cool. I recall with the Hogan 1 irons, the "1" was oversized but fit perfectly on the sole.

Faldo tells the story of going to Scotland in 1973 to watch the Open, and being mesmerized watching Nicklaus and Weiskopf hitting sky high 1 irons on the range.

He just posted a bit of a rant on Twitter, actually more like a cry for help. Poor guy is not doing well.

I found this article interesting. Bubba played a 6100 yard public course to see how low he could go. Funny line is when he asks someone in his group how strong the wind is and the guy replies that it's adding about a yard. Bubba says "a yard? that's not a thing"

spoiler: he shot a 62

Louis continues his incredible play. The dude is bound to bink a few before too long.

You cannot stop Sepp Straka. Blowing through this Olympic golf course faster and harder than me through a rice bowl.

The Koreans are shitting the bed so far. Enjoy your 2 years in the military and the end of your pro golf careers.

Sabbatini may be a doosh-nozzle, but that 61 to bag a medal was amazing.

And the average golfer can have his clubs built by the same guys that built Rory’s.

61 with two bogeys. Super impressive.

Also super impressive was Xander not melting down after making a complete cluster of an easy par 5 on the back nine on Sunday.
