Very curious to see what comes out of the talks in the Bahamas. If anyone can put together golf's version of the Molotov-Ribbontrop pact it's Jay Monahan.

My sense is PGAT was bargaining while asserting their strong position. They certainly want $, but it won't be easy.

Those odds did not age well for JT.

on friday JT was pulling everything left off the tee into trash locations and somehow found a way to score with his scrambling. it was unsustainable.

they just mentioned how many double eagles have been scored on Tour since '83 (there was another one today). i couldn't belive the total number.

anyone who didn't see the answer care to hazard a guess?

I'm gonna go with 7.

I'm pretty sure Harry Higgs made one like 2 or 3 years ago.

I remember one double eagle at the Masters. I'm gonna guess 80. A little over two a year.

Last edited by natediggity; 03-25-2024 at 11:10 AM. Reason: or a little under 3 a year?

There have been 4 in the history of the Masters.

Interesting to me: It's one on each of the par 5's.

Sarazen on 15, Bruce Devlin on 8, Jeff Maggert on 13, and Oosthuizen on 2

I remember louis oost's at the masters. I think its about a 40% chance for a hole in one in a tournament. Most players would get I suppose about 2 double eagle opportunities in a round and generally a much harder shot that a par 3, and also they mostly wouldn't be going at the pin. So I'd cut it down to one a round, so that is a 10% chance in a tournament and reduce to 2.5% for the considerable extra difficulty. 40 tournaments a year for 40 years, 1600 x .025 = 40.

This is very interesting. And yes, Oosthuizen's is the one I remember.

counting the double-eagle from this past weekend, there have been 139 double-eagles on Tour since 1983

the one scored this weekend was the third of the current season

I witnessed Freddy Couples make one in the 1993 World Cup of Golf at Lake Nona.

Also made one myself about 10 years ago, although it was a short par 5 and I used a 7 iron.
