Misc: ***Official 2020 PGA Tour***

I just flipped this on. Nice to have some golf back, even with no fans.

Dechambeau - wow! Dude is huge! I just saw him hit 189 on the ball speed tracker. I don't know that I've seen it hit 190 before. That's a BIG number. He did not hit the fairway. :)

He's averaging 341 on his drives this week. Beast.
 
They should play without fans everywhere except maybe Augusta. I don't have to hear the idiots and sometimes you get to hear players. Really good viewing.

He wants to be at 200 mph and 270 pounds. Guy is out of his mind as chasing distance never works out well

200mph! I believe that puts him in the mid 130s swing speed and would be carrying the ball 350+. That would put him into long drive territory, nearing the elites, but he's not using a 48" 5* driver. Not happening.

He's got a lot of haters, I think he's a riot. If that is a plan he sticks with it will probably be a train wreck, but I can't wait to watch.

Got a link to where he said this? I haven't been paying attention for the last few months.

He’s had a bunch twitch streams during the pandemic where he talked about his goals while playing Fornite. The Shotgun Start podcast has been documenting it all. It’s ridiculous what he’s doing.

I think he’s a complete fake, idiot, but he’s entertaining at least.

"The change has caused him to adjust the lofts in some of his clubs -- he said he's down to a 5.5-degree driver and he's looking to get down to 10 degrees on his 3-wood."

Well I guess I don't know anything.

I can't believe he's using a 5.5* driver on the PGA Tour. That's bananas.
 
Before and after. I'm not so sure that getting too muscle bound is great for golfing, but he's doing well this week....

I always root for interesting and Bryson is certainly that. That said if I had to bet I would say it won’t be long before he starts to see back issues and slims back down.
 
With every passing week, I’m more convinced that Jordan Spieth is just a new version of David Duval
