Golf

I can't see the point of it. Golf fans generally like to see the long hitters, plus the technology is available to them all. Being long off the tee is no guarantee of success either. Macca isn't winning 3/4 a year nor is Bryson De.

Could just ban the driver on one or two of the shorter par 4's...there yer go problem solved.

It’s exciting watching the big hitters as we can only dream about such distance. Thing is technology come that far but obviously the golf courses still the same size.

2  x par 4 holes under 400yards. Macca won it here in 2014. I really think they should leave it alone. Yes extend the holes or whatever but almost everything in life progresses. Players are fitter, more competition due to the rewards etc.

Most annoying thing is on the green constantly picking it up, lining it up. Should be allowed one pick up on the green for cleaning purposes, after that 'ball in play'....don't touch it. 2 stroke penalty.

Must admit I’m guilty of lining it up more than once. 

Speith isn't that far away, surely the best or close to one of the best putters.

His putting poor again this week.

But wasn't that far off. Takes too long over 4-8 footers. On 17th handy..birdie gives him share of the lead and he looked at it from the same angle 6/7 times. Too intense a lot of the time but bit more relaxed and he could be in the frame for one of the big 4.

Spieths issue is from the tee , think he is around 150th on tour in driving accuracy

Spot on, takes far too long and that’s coz he’s not confident with his reads/lines in my opinion. I’d be trying a new putter out if I was him.
