THE Official 2024 PGA Tour Season Thread
I don't have a fancy OP or anything. But now that we are in 2024, and are back to calendar schedules instead of the reach-around schedule, its time for a new thread.
Houston Open odds to win after the cut
Spoiler
Tiger would have made those putts down the stretch.
Someone should tell Scotty line follows speed.
Hard to imagine he intentionally tried to trickle the ball into the hole from 5.5 feet to get into a playoff.
And Shotlink claimed Scotty had 19" coming back for par. Watching the live feed maybe 4", at most.

I agree, my conspiracy is that in the final pairing, someone like Scotty (and others) would have a chat at some point on the back 9 and say to the playing partner in the lead. "I'mma let you win one, because I have plenty, I don't wanna do all these pictures and interviews, but I'mma need a cut...."
Having some parity in golf is good for PGA, Scotty seems too nice to take on the "me against the field" character that Tiger had.

Like Cal slingshotting Rickie in for a win?
JT and Bones have parted ways
nvr seemed to be a good match
VTO odds to win after the cut

SPEEF just hit a golf ball on a roof on purpose
Yep
PGAT GOAT
edit: McCarthy matches the fewest putts over a 72-hole tournament (92 putts)
breaks down to 1.28 putts per hole
da fk was that
would suck if Akshay has to WD from the Masters
Bhatia's injury,, McCarthy chunk. Weird ending after a crazy back nine
Dramatic finish. Denny was Superman that back nine, wow.
Lol at Akshay putting his shoulder out from a fistpump. A stiff breeze might snap him in half.
I’ve never understood why Americans call an Albatross a Double Eagle. Double -2 is -4, after all.
Same goes for MM for a million. Why not just M (or KK) when you already use K for a thousand.
Mm for million is definitely not a standard thing in casual writing for Americans. Maybe they do that in business writing but I've seen it used far more on European articles and by Euro posters on this forum.
I would say most people also use albatross over double eagle. Sounds way cooler.
mille = one thousand in Latin
MM to signify one million makes all kind of sense
I put every single player into a wheel randomiser thing and the last person standing is who I back each way (top 12) for a laugh it's been a good system so far lol
2021: Rahm, 5th
2022: Champ, 10th
2023: Hovland, 3rd
2024:

Let's goooooo
They appear to have made an error with your potential returns calculation.
It should read £-90
LOL he got absolutely no chance then? Might slip into the top 12 you never know
Presumably you've bet with betfair. It is actually a pretty neutral book. The win book is 200% and the place book is 66%. So you lose half of every win bet and win half of every place bet.
But comparing the betfair prices with the exchange prices many are less than half the exchange price (a reasonable guide to true price), min woo is 35%. Bryson the shamboy for example is 66%, so picking randoms in this kind of book isn't a great policy.
Apparently he has flu and will be playing with a broken finger after a dumbbell accident in the gym last week.
