So VJ is tinkering with his swing - trying to take the club away more on to the inside. Funny, as most of us try to "avoid" taking it away too far inside..

Anyway, WTF is he doing. At his age, with his success, and the fact that he has hit like 10,000,000,000 golf balls, what is he trying to fix?? It seemed to me that putting was the the only weak (or at least inconsistent part) of VJ's game, so not sure what the swing change is about. Anyone know?

PS. Odd to see how with all the changes Phil has made, he is still capable of that ugly slice with the driver now and then. Kind of odd - it's not even a fade gone astray, it's just a big weak slice.

Props to Weir for proving why he was an acceptable captain's pick!

Not incredibly noteworthy, but a fairly relevant point to the discussion of the Fedex Cups validity. Fred Funk, #75, withdrew after a first round 76. Granted, reasoning might be serious and 76 = likely missed cut, but #2 and #75 when 70 advance are pretty damning rankings at which to withdraw.

Wow, Phil on Phire. -7 thru 13. He must have taken his sane pills today.

Oh yeah, Tiger -7 for the day too.

Wow, a lot of guys going low today. It makes me wonder if these "playoff" tournaments shouldn't have slightly tougher conditions than the average Tour stop? After all, majors tend to yield higher scoring champions than random events, and tends to yield a higher caliber champion.

If the winners the next three weeks are in the 15+ under range it's gonna make me wonder.

Definitely a better chance of some "no-name" coming from behind to win with easier course setups.

Not sure how I feel about it really. I'm leaning towards not caring though.

Well, Stricker made this Cup thing interesting for awhile. GG, Tiger.

I don't think there's anything the PGA Tour could do to really pump up fan interest once football season has started.
