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 reac
It's like you guys forgot the time when Chez Reavie had 3 eagles in the same round at Sony with him holing out 3 times on par 4s.
they are going low at the Bibigo Open with spokesman Asian Jim
Sungjae -10 on the round
Si Woo -9 thru 12 including four in a row
edit: and the announcers are trying to jinx it
17 is simple but 15,16, and 18 are pretty solid tests. Especially for this cupcake of a course. Why did they redesign it, to make it more difficult? Funny.
'twas
I wonder why Koreans have dominated this course. Hopefully Sungjae continues to go off and Si Woo actually misses a putt for once.
Good work on spending $25MM to make the course more difficult. 31-under won last year, this year went way down to 30-under.
I live about 45 minutes SW of the course and it’s been dumping and storming for 90 minutes now. Perfect weather at the course.
Si Woo's had an awesome year without a win.

when is the last time you checked market prices on a weather dome?
based on the results they seem to have got a bargain
Rai’s win might’ve been the alltime “we had him and we let him go” moment in sports betting history. Anyone charging money for golf bets/DFS should be laughed off the internet. One well known guy even picked Rickie for winning on a Ross course once but not Rai.
NOBODY had Rai. He was like .01% of the money bet on DK—one $288 bet & two $50 bets, at +29000. 2.66% owned at 6700 in DFS. These two are the only guys who kind of had him and they still didn’t really have him.
That's a sick shirt.
AI confirmed on an acid trip today. I asked for his scoring average by day and it gave me this big bag of BS. He does have 2 PGA tour wins (2023, 2025) and 1 DP World tour win (2023). I guess I expected more since I bet him every week and he folds like a cheap lawn chair on Sundays. Like today for example.
Player Performance Breakdown by Day
Thursday (Round 1) – The Slow Start: Historically, Thursday is statistically Åberg's weakest day on the course. In past seasons, his early-round scoring average ranked as low as 126th to 152nd on Tour, meaning he frequently starts tournaments over par or near the cut line before finding his rhythm.
Friday (Round 2) – Making the Turn: On Fridays, his scoring average tightens significantly as he adjusts to the course layouts. He typically jumps up into the top 60 to top 80 in second-round efficiency, carding reliable numbers to comfortably secure weekend cuts.
Saturday (Round 3) – "Moving Day" Surges: When the tournament shifts to the weekend, Åberg begins his charge. His Saturday scoring average numbers reliably sit in the top 35 to top 40 on the PGA Tour, allowing him to quickly vault up leaderboards.
Sunday (Round 4) – Elite Closing Performance: Sunday is statistically his absolute best day. Åberg owns a premier final-round scoring average that consistently ranks in the top 3 to top 5 out of all players on Tour, making him one of the most reliable and dangerous performers when under maximum pressure on Sunday afternoons.

Ludvig Åberg is widely recognized for his elite, consistent ball-striking, though his round-by-round scoring averages show that his performance relative to the field peaks significantly in the middle of tournaments.A round-by-round look at his scoring vs. field average on the PGA TOUR highlights the following trends:
Round 1 (Fast Starts)
Åberg is historically a fast starter, frequently leading the field after the opening 18 holes.
Scoring/Strokes Gained: His Round 1 scoring average is outstanding, frequently placing him inside the top 10 of the Tour's opening round rankings.
Field Comparison: He regularly gains between +1.00 to +2.00 strokes against the field on Thursday.
Round 2 (The Mid-Tournament Surge)
Often referred to as his "Moving Day a day early," Round 2 is statistically his strongest round where he heavily distances himself from the field.
Scoring/Strokes Gained: This is historically his best round where his scoring average dips into the mid-60s.
Field Comparison: He routinely beats the field average by +2.00 or more strokes per round. For instance, in premier events like THE PLAYERS Championship, he gained over +4.00 strokes on the field in a single second round with historic 63s.
Round 3 (Maintaining Position)
On the standard PGA TOUR "Moving Day," Åberg tends to play steady, mistake-free golf.
Scoring/Strokes Gained: His scores usually align with the elite tier, ranking in the top 40 of Tour leaderboards by round three.
Field Comparison: He continues to be better than the field average (typically +0.50 to +1.00 strokes gained) but does not experience the explosive outlier rounds seen on Friday.
Round 4 (Sunday Pressure)
Final rounds require precise positioning and sometimes a charging mindset, where his scoring is still excellent, though his field variance tightens.
Scoring/Strokes Gained: His Round 4 scoring average still ranks securely in the top 50 of the PGA TOUR.
Field Comparison: He hovers around field average to slightly above field average +0.25 to +0.50 strokes gained) as tournament conditions toughen and players chase.
Got off my Colecaine addiction a few months ago, so cheering for him to win.

Aberg is extremely talented young golfer that hits a ton of really good shots and makes it look effortless.
That said he also makes a ton of mistakes, doesn't have a good short game. He has to improve his short game and control of the golf ball under pressure.

wild he's 5th overall SG and 3rd in birdie average while 89th in scrambling and 52nd SG putting.
perhaps he should hit up short game chef Joe Mayo and ask for the Viktor Hovland blue plate special
Proposed thread title change: The Official 2026 PGA Tour/Scottie Ain’t No Tiger ThreadScottie’s done. He’s really really done, as an unstoppable Terminator. Happens that fast. He really is ‘just’ a rich man’s Spieth. Top ten, mostly top five OWGR for the next decade; maybe 2-4 combined more majors/Players, 6-12 other Tour events, maybe another Fedex Cup. And i’ll fade completin

I was going to mention he remind me of Hovland.
But Hovland fixed his short game and it leaked into his full swing and he hasn't been the same since.
