    Two things. Great to see Tiger back. He’s not at his best but he’s on the cusp of putting in a couple of great rounds. Just a little more fine tuning. His swing looks so much more relaxed.

    Wtf has happened to Rory? He looks an absolute shadow of himself since his last major win. Currently +4 and looking to miss the cut. One of the best I’ve seen when he’s on song but when will we see him at that level again if ever??

    Tiger needs to leave his driver at home, will challenge for wins without it.

    Rory needs to stick to the European Tour, that seems to be his level this year :laugh:

    I remember a time when Tiger played 3 rounds and only missed one fairway with his driver. He’s been a bit wild with it lately but if he can just fine tune that club then he’ll smash a few top rounds in imo.

    Rory's short game has always been average at best, but his driving and long irons were so far ahead of everyone else it morr than balanced out. However his long game is completely off atm.

    It also doesn't help that he is no longer single. His best performances always come when he is single.

    Have any of you ever played golf abroad?

    My son in law is 30 next year and wants to go to possibly Spain or Portugal with five other golfers, plus wives/girlfriends.

    Any info you can give me, would be much appreciated. I’ll be going along with my partner. Looking for 3-4 nights, but nothing set in stone, as yet.

    Hey CF. I played in Portugal last year and it was brilliant. The course was beautiful and the area we stayed in was one of the main areas for night life in the Algarve. would definitely go back.

    Played in Florida. The south west around Naples I believe has one of the best golf courses to people ratios in the world.

    I’d love to go back to Florida, but it’s only a short break we are looking for. We may all go to Florida in a couple of years time, so nice to know, thank you :)

    Rory about to miss yet another cut. Bloke needs to change something.

    Tiger played some lovely stuff today. Can’t wait to see him at the Masters!
