GolfWRX Forum Thread of the Day: “Tiger Woods at the 2018 Tour Championship”

Published

on

Today’s GolfWRX Forum Thread of the day comes from a dedicated thread to Tiger Woods at the Tour Championship. This is his first return to East Lake since 2013, and lots of crazy things are needed to happen for him to take back the Cup. But then again, he is Tiger Woods and shot a first round 65 (5-under) to grab a share of the lead.

Here are a few comments from the forum, but make sure to check the live thread out in the link below as members continue to share their thoughts:

  • PatsNation: “Seems like the new driver shaft is really making a difference”
  • tbrumbleoe13: “I think he went up (in driver loft) from 8.5 to 9.5. I think 44.75 inches. Not sure about setting but I read swingweight was D3.”
  • blblco02: “We’re just lucky to still be able to see him out there playing. Awesome shots and awesome swing.”
  • Stanks: “I’m hoping big cat can put a win in but I’m just stoked to get to watch him this week and at Ryder Cup”

    Yeah he finally realized he needs more launch and spin off that driver to keep it in play. How long did that take to figure out, to get past his distance ego. duh

      Ummmmm …… that is the very definition of getting more distance, not less. Duh.

Why Ludvig Aberg is my new favorite player – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing one of the new sensations in the world of golf – Ludvig Aberg. The 24-year-old finished solo second at the Masters a couple of weeks ago, and gained many plaudits, including from several WRXers.

One member, RoyalMustang, took to the forums to explain why Aberg is now their favorite player, saying:

“I loved the way the Ludvig was out there, having a great time, not taking himself or the situation too seriously. Even after the double at 11, he was like “well, that’s golf!” Loose and relaxed: that’s the way to play. It’s obvious he loves what he’s doing, he loves the big moments, and he loves being a part of it all.

Arnold Palmer was viewed that way. Just like Brooks Robinson was forever viewed as not just a great baseball player, but a great human being and friend to Baltimore.”

And our members have been reacting and sharing their positive takes on the young Swede.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • redfirebird08: “Ludvig has a great attitude, a great smile, and a great golf swing.”
  • otto6457: “I’m very lucky to have talked with Ludde several times at the Rawls Course at Texas Tech.  He’s a truly nice guy and very friendly.  Always said hello when we passed each other in the club house and was always smiling. Watching him hit balls on the range was a joy.  He has “that sound” and trajectory to die for.  There were many times he was out on the range in 30+ mph winds just hitting the most beautiful shots that just seemed to ignore the wind.  World class ball striker. And yes……..I am a fan boy.”
  • konklifer: “I like him. In an era of endless waggles and laboring, his swing and pace of play are a joy to watch.
