Great front-9. Hopefully we'll have as many pics of Brian the next couple of days!!
I was wondering a bit about Brians extensor-action at address, or should I call it his non excisting EA at address. Is it something that you've worked on, talked about?? And do you (Lynn) see it as a flaw in Brian motion?
GO Brian!!! A couple of 5 in a row streaks of birdies and you'll be dressed in that nice jacket sunday afternoon

As good as Brian's round was, he burned the edges on quite a few putts; his round yesterday was inches from being really low. Go get 'em the rest of the weekend, Brian!
Did anybody catch the talking heads trying to break down Brian's slo-mo driver swing today? Sounded to me like they were struggling to define a 'hit' .

Yea they are really struggling with it. Never seen so many slow motion shots of Brian's swing. He has been burning the edges on his putts today could be quite a few more shots ahead.
I quite like how Kostis, Faldo et al are all saying that Brian can get another 20 yards if he holds his angles better.......

Hah. Is there footage of this anywhere? I missed it but saw the last few holes. Wonder what they thought when he hit 8 iron on 18 from 171?
Brian Gay's motion is so simple. Beautiful and machine like.
I think Faldo said something like Gay could add more yards if he just allowed his hands to release through the ball instead of holding on. He said this during an analysis of Gay's swing where Gay held the flying wedge perfectly.

It must be kinda harsh for the players to watch the play back and listen to the commentary on their round. The announcers do need to make good t.v. after all, with the accent on "make". I bet most guys do it with the sound off. I loved Nick in his prime though. His pivot to hands, 8 iron from 145 prime.
After Nick put the green jacket on Tiger in '97 he began an effort to increase his distance, that I think anyways, played a part in his eventual demise as a player. At around that time he was invited to Shady Oaks to meet Ben Hogan whose advice to him was to forget about how far down the fairway he was but instead focus on being on the correct side of the fairway.
Brian could win on any course. Fairways and greens take precedent over driving distance stats.
Watch his set-up, that right forearm is on plane with the shaft perfectly. His swing looks great, looks like we'll see a plaid jacket on a golfing machine!
