You're correct in that many pickleball players don't know how to control the racquet face and impart spin but the millions of players who played tennis at a fairly high level rise to the top of the sport quickly. I think it's going to be around for a while. I could still play tennis but pickleball is easier for us seniors and it's way more fun.
True but he also had great shots on the 15th, 17th and playoff. And fortunately for him the playoff hole is all that matters.
Too bad no one took me up on my repeated offers to bet.
If it was basketball he had a turnover, missed a floater and missed a layup but when it mattered he drained dagger three pointers for the win.
You should be happy instead of being so angry.
I’m never angry. You misinterpret my direct candid nature and enthusiasm for making fun of people lesser than me for anger.
Someone asked if Rory/Scottie or the field and you trimmed it down to just Rory….
Pickleball might be easier because the court dimensions are a lot smaller, but at the same time pickleball players are very very injury prone because of all the sudden stopping and going, twisting and turning without moving your feet. The result is lots and lots of torn ACL’s, sudden falls, broken bones, wacking a wiffelball back and forth. It’s like playing badminton on a hard court.
And you Completely discount his great approach shots under pressure.
That was the most bi-polar round I’ve ever seen by a winner.
They said he had 4 double bogey and 30 birdies for the tournamentMost doubles ever by a winner
He had a four stroke lead with six holes to play and a three footer to win that didn’t touch the hole.
And he ultimately won, so he didn’t choke. He just made some mistakes on one of the hardest golf courses in the world and over came them. No one else did. Why do you feel the need to take away from his win? Let it go.
That is what makes completing the grand slam that much better for Rory. He is far and away the best thing for the PGA Tour and the game of Golf currently. Also, big as winning the Grand Slam and another major is for Rory its bigger for the PGA Tour and the game.
And he proceeded to make an absolutely spectacular shot to set up the birdie to win.
Because they’re so easy to make?
The two eagles on Day 3 were killers. It was not just the round that was bipolar each hole was. He put a drive into the woods only to put a 9 iron 182 between a tree and the television tower on the green. Day 4 double bogey to double birdie.That was the most bi-polar round I’ve ever seen by a winner.

He knows the contours. That is shooting at the flag at the Masters. It's still risky because if you miss even a little, bad things happen. He was aggressive all week long. Many guys were very cautious. I think the course is set up such that you can get into the leader board playing cautious, analytical golf (like Bryson) but you won't win. The guys that win take risks and execute them.
From 2002-2005, Tiger had 1,540 putts from 3 feet and in on the PGA Tour. He only missed 3 of them.
And that’s why you know his name. I know you’ve played. You should know it’s not as easy as you said it was.
You might as well be talking about Ben Hogan.
Exactly. When you have a 3 footer to win the Masters and everyone knows you're going to miss it, then you miss it? I don't care what he did next.
