Writer for the Athletic got very lucky and won the draw for a Monday round following the tournament.

I had played like Tiger Woods 01 and thought I'd give Augusta the go Sunday morning on the ps5 with the kids. My first attempt at the game. Holy fuck is that course hard and unforgiving eh.Quote:

Thank you Masters for not having range finders in play eh. No expert but I've golfed enough to know you don't need a freaking range finder out every freaking shot.
Play to the whistle.Quote:

Parkinson's Disease Linked to Living Near Golf Courses—New Study
https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/oth...6ae0ff26&ei=11
Areas that shared drinking water supplies with water used near golf courses were the most greatly impacted, the study shows. Researchers believe this shows that the pesticides used on golf courses could contribute to the amount of Parkinson's cases.
He added: "This new JAMA Network Open study offers a warning we can't ignore: living within 1-3 miles of a golf course more than doubles your odds of developing Parkinson's. Drinking water from municipal wells near golf courses in vulnerable groundwater areas may be a risk.
Researchers said in the study: "Individuals getting their tap water from groundwater water service areas with a golf course had nearly doubled odds of PD compared with individuals getting tap water from groundwater water service areas without golf courses and 49% greater odds of PD compared with individuals getting drinking water from private wells."
Or its because more older people retire to living on a golf course??? Ahhh your tax dollars at work.Quote:

GOLF RULE CHANGES - EFFECTIVE 2020
(For Senior Golfers - Age 60 & Over)
Rule 9.k.3 – If a tree is between the ball and the hole, and the tree is deemed to be younger than the player, then the ball can be moved without penalty. This is because it's simply a question of timing; when the Senior player was younger, the tree was not there so the player is being penalized because of his age.
Rule 1.a.5 – A ball sliced or hooked into the Rough shall be lifted and placed on the Fairway at a point equal to the distance it carried or rolled into the Rough with no penalty. The Senior player should not be penalized for tall grass which ground keepers failed to mow.
Rule 2.d.6 – A ball hitting a tree shall be deemed NOT to have hit the tree. This is simply bad luck and luck has no place in a scientific game such as golf. The Senior player must estimate the distance the ball would have traveled if it had not hit the tree, and play the ball from there.
Rule 3.b.3 – There shall be no such thing as a lost ball. The missing ball is on or near the course and will eventually be found and pocketed by someone else, thereby making it a stolen ball. The Senior player is not to compound the felony by charging himself with a penalty...when, clearly, HE has committed no crime!
Rule 4.c.7 – If a putt passes over a hole without dropping, it is deemed (and ruled) to have dropped. The Law of Gravity supersedes the Rules of Golf.
Rule 5.a.6 - Putts that stop close enough to the cup that they could be blown in, may be blown in by the Senior golfer. This does not apply to balls more than 6 inches from the Hole. No one wants to make a mockery of the game.
Rule 6.a.9 – There is no penalty for so-called "out of bounds". If penny-pinching golf course owners bought sufficient land, this would not occur. The Senior player deserves an apology for the lack of sufficient land that the golf course was built on, not a penalty.
Rule 7.g.15 – There is no penalty for a ball in a water hazard, as golf balls should float. Senior players should not be penalized for any shortcomings of the manufacturers.
Rule 8.k.9 – Advertisements claim that golf scores can be improved by purchasing new golf equipment. Since this is financially impractical for many Seniors living on fixed incomes, if so desired by said Senior, one stroke per hole may be subtracted for using old equipment.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Please advise all your Senior friends of these important rule changes and keep multiple copies in your golf bag. Those not following the rules need to be provided a copy.
After all...GOLF is a game of Integrity.

Lot of golf this weekend. Meanwhile Maja Stark of Sweden picked up a very nice win over in Wisconsin!
https://youtu.be/qNZKfaY6LRg
Prize money this year:
https://golfweek.usatoday.com/story/...s/83982448007/
“Sweden's Maja Stark is now a major champion after winning the 80th US Women's Open on Sunday at Erin Hills in Wisconsin. The 25-year-old is the first Swede to win a US Women's Open since Annika Sörenstam earned her third title in 2006. The only other Swede to win the major was Liselotte Neumann in 1988.”
Anyone know of somebody looking for some golf clubs?

I think Greenie used it.Quote:

Looks like making it into the Tour Championship (Top 30) might be a tall order Pucknut, but a lucrative season in any case:
