Forum Thread of the Day: “Why do so many people have an issue with Rory Sabbatini?”

Published

on

Today’s Forum Thread of the Day comes from Hit em Good, who asks fellow GolfWRX members why they think that there is so much animosity from golf fans towards Rory Sabbatini. There are always two sides to every story, and in this thread, our members discuss the 42-year-old, along with other PGA Tour professionals.

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.

  • sdandrea: “I don’t know the man so I can’t pass judgement.  His face and body language to project a bit of impatience and negativity.  Could be that he is just very serious during competition. “
  • 27×10.5: “Something years ago about quitting Tigers tournament for shin splints while in last place then keeping the automatic $200k for showing up…not that I cared, but it was a big story then.”
  • Rosco1216: “I was playing with a local pro I know well.  He played 30 some PGA tour events in the early 2000s.  I randomly asked him who the most disliked guy on tour was, and without pause, “Rory Sabbatini without a doubt.”
  • BMC: “There was a story a few years ago at the Sony in Hawaii.  Rory S came in very early for a practice round and was paired with a husband and wife tourist twosome.  It’s a resort course.  The couple said he couldn’t have been nicer.  Helping them with their game and enjoying his company.  They ate lunch together after the round, and he picked up the tab.”

    If this is the forum thread of the day, maybe wrx should shut down for winter.

    It’s a lame thread, started as a pretty obvious troll that devolved into taking shots at random tour players, not really a shining example of the forums, lol.

        I think he was trying to slate him by giving him a disparaging label just for the sake. Muppet though he is, mate

From the Forums: How are you liking TaylorMade’s Qi10 fairway woods?

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing TaylorMade’s new Qi10 fairway woods. WRXer ‘ace036’ plans on testing them in the next few weeks, saying: “from how they look from address and frame the ball is much more appealing to my eye versus my current Paradym fairway woods.” And our members have been sharing their positive feedback in our forum.

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.

  • Edwardsr: “I got fit into the Qi10 core model with Ventus TR Black 8X and it’s absolutely amazing for me.During the fitting with my 12-15 swings with it, it was the most efficient combo I’ve ever tested, tons of 1.48 smash and 3 or 4 1.49 smash (which I don’t think I’ve ever gotten on 3 wood on a launch monitor).”
  • MiloMalt: “No complaints and so far only high praise for my Qi10 Tour 3 and 5 wood. I’m getting great numbers and a nice penetrating ball flight with great height whereas with my old TSi2 4 wood it was spinny and ballooning and short because of that.”
  • courcy75: “The Qi10 Tour 3 wood I just put in play has been outstanding for me. Finally found something I like as much as the 07 burner tp.”
