Our 2 cents: we really need to get back to full-field signature events. Long days on Thurs/Fri, wave splits, guys battling to make the cut, Chad Ramey FRLs... are all part of what make golf unique. Sterilizing fields to 70 players just removes so much and adds almost nothing.

Spieth has now missed 4 of his last 6 cuts (and one of those was a no-cut event). Definitely sounds worse than the SG numbers indicate, but still not good.

He's been solid OTT this year and that continued this week (9th), but putting and approach were awful (120th in both).

Has this always been the case? Is it just for KFT events (not PGA Tour)? Rob Bolton

The only player close to Scheffler's sg approach numbers in 2024 is... Tom Hoge 🧐?

Someone has finally infiltrated the sea of TWs on the right side of the major champion skill distribution:

Scheffler (SS) is the best major champ since Tiger at Torrey in 2008.

👍

Scheffler is now #2 on our all-time (since 1995) list, barely edging out 2004 Vijay:

The lowest his win prob got on Sunday was 35% (thru 7, 4-way T1 at -6).

Start: 15%
Post R1: 35%
Post R2: 45%
Post R3: 55%
Thru 16 R4: 99.6%

And just like that... Scheffler 85% to win.

This has to be the craziest cut sweat of all time, not even close.

Tiger's round 2 stats. Short game kept him in it.

7/7 fairways, leading the field in driving distance, losing strokes on approach and ARG.
