The Players Thread
Good grief. Rory opens the door with a giant slice and Spaun decides to go with him.
Kisner…
Not the most exciting playoff. I laughed at Rory’s tee shot on 18… went over everyone’s head and nobody ever turned around .
This looks like a Friday night league playoff at my place
Damn Rory

Rory wins on St. Paddy’s Day!!!
Rory can’t putt… reminds me of Fred Couples when he was younger. He can 2 putt from 2 feet as well as 74 feet.
It wouldn’t surprise me to see Rory trying out the new TM Lab Spider. Doubt he’d trust it for the Masters but at some point I could see him with one to see if it helps
Typhoon Rory can’t putt…
Putting is Rory's weakness. Seems the case with several of the Pro's of late though. Scottie Scheffler has struggled with his putting. He's been seeing Phil Kenyon the past couple years.
Putting was Rickie's strength until he started having problems. Look at Jordon, he seems to make bombs and misses short putts. Rory won this week without his A game. Which is a good sign.
This interview they are doing with Rory, Lerner, Chamblee…. They are making a HUGE deal out of him figuring out something on the range without a coach….
Seriously????
Why bother listening to athletes or coaches interviews? Usually not too enlightening.
One of the worst playoff I can remember seeing. Rory played terribly and Spaun played worse. Lab putters should be asking for their putter back.

Is Rory McIlroy currently the best golfer this century? He has 28 PGA Tour wins with 4 Majors. Tiger and Phil are still playing, but their best is behind them.
The only player who may have an argument is Brooks Koepka. He has more Majors than Rory (5-4) but only has 9 PGA Tour wins.
Unequivocally he is the best current golfer ....at least the most talented. Sometimes it looks as though his mental toughness ( or lack thereof) is holding him back. Golf is hard however.
As for best golfer of this century ? Tiger was pretty good in the early 2000's so as much as I could not and cannot stand Tiger, he is still the best we've seen this Century
