Eagle Eye Efnef
 

Thanks for the heads-up, efnef. My recent international travel and teaching schedule left little time (or energy!) for my usual web routines, and I had missed these.

Thanks for your sharp eye!

:salut:

Not so sharp, Lynn. They were plastered all over the PGA Tour home page. :-)

I like this drawing. The 1,2,3 sounds familiar too.

That's REALLY cool!!!

interesting stuff

I don't want to be rude - but why isn't Brian Gay (and Jay Williamson) playing better than he is this year? Is he injured? He hasn't forgotten all that made him great last year (or was it the year before?)?

I think its related to length and the distance these courses are going. Statistically speaking he should be having a good year, he is very high in fairways, proximity to hole, putting both in average and total putting.

I just think he is getting hurt on the par 5's and has to many long irons into greens. He is 3 yards on average shorter than the next shortest player on tour, thats a lot to overcome.

He was driving 286 today. That's not so bad? (But short in comparison with MATT BETTENCOURT 350y).

OmiGod . . . What's Wrong??!!
 

It was last year.

Other than that, BG's scoring average and earnings have really sucked these past five years:

2010 70.70 $1,388,579
2009 70.34 $3,201,295
2008 70.11 $2,205,513
2007 70.89 $1,114,571
2006 70.32 $1,037,600

Guess he'll have to 're-build' his swing.
