that's just natural fertilizer

JB;n8873772 said:Because the rules are convoluted at best. Put on clock, taken off, put on. It's nonsense.
I just find it interesting that we hear about a 90 second shot being too long (which it is), but one of the most celebrated shots in history took longer. Check out start to finish, Tiger Woods chipping in back in 05 Masters.

one side of mouth; "I absolutely hate playing golf"
other side of mouth; "golf is my passion"
Nice try, bro.
kevin81002;n8875514 said:Yeah that's a damage control statement.
radiman;n8875536 said:Most definitely. Should have been his first statement though. I think he dug himself into a little bit of a hole and is now trying to climb out of it. But, at least he walks fast between his shots, so he is on the right track.
So true, not even a backpedal, more of a turn the hips and sprint backward... hahaCanadan;n8875366 said:Nice PR move...

fupresti;n8875759 said:Soly from NLU has a good take on how to solve the problem.
Group players based on speed of play. Fast players only play with fast players, slow players only play with slow players. This means the slow players don't get to take advantage of the fast players and stay in position. See how quickly things change then.

Yikes.

McLovin;n8876116 said:i’m 30 minutes in so far. he never blames anyone but himself for his slow play on those shots. he admits it is inconsiderate. but he also points out that there are other contributing factors to bad times, says it’s a problem with almost all players, and there are flaws in the system.
for the brooks thing, brysons story sounds a lot like how i thought it went down. he wanted to talk to brooks face to face. he wasn’t trying to pick a fight. and he commends brooks for finding him and talking about it.
he also says he got bad times when he first came on tour and worked to speed up. and he admits that he is slow on the greens and is working to get faster.
i’m looking forward to finishing the interview. from
what i’ve listened to so far, i think he is actually making damn near the best out of a bad situation.

KingVeo;n8876202 said:All that being said.. I really dislike BD so I'm hearing this interview with biased ears. YMMV.
Canadan;n8876443 said:I blame the tour for not acting on a problem that is only increasing. What else can the players do other than publicize those who are on the extreme?
McLovin;n8876462 said:talk to each other. and if that person is unresponsive/unapologetic, take it to the tour. and if the tour is unwilling to take action, take it to social media. if you had an issue with me, i would hope you would message me first instead of going to the forum and calling me out. seems similar to me.
Canadan;n8876468 said:I'm not condoning it at all, but I know that the Tour reacts to negative public commentary from their players.
Obviously there are better ways to handle it, but do we know that guys like Bryson haven't heard about it directly from other players?
JB;n8876471 said:It’s the typical generations way out. Run to social. With that said it has worked, but it’s a joke that players like JT “call out” Bryson, but never said a word about their buddies.
Here is the beauty of all of this. Next year we will still be talking about it haha.
