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.

That's how Furyk plays. Like Luke Donald, he plays for top 5s rather than wins. He's completely gutless.
He also sets a terrible example, taking two minutes to hit every shot and backing off of each putt multiple times, and that shit bleeds down into public golf. He's a much worse example than Tiger cussing. [Reply]
Good example: Fifteen is a cut pin. Furyk has two holes where he could potentially make a birdie, otherwise he's relying on Dufner to make a bogey going in.
Rather than trying to hit a cut into that pin Furyk never even takes the water on, ending up 50 feet short of the hole. He's the Alex Smith of golfers. [Reply]

Maybe he turns the corner, but he could just be a non-asshole Scott Hoch.
I'd probably go with Muffner. He'll need a good putting week to win, but he can go super low and he's a flatliner.
