@LouStagner Consider building architecture. Why not build every office tower as a rectangular concrete structure? Would you enjoy living in that city? I suspect not. People react to physical appearances...including how a person dresses. You may not care but others do (including me).

I don’t care if you wear your hat indoors. I don’t care which direction your hat is facing. The direction of your hat, your shirt being tucked/untucked, or the length of your socks have zero impact on me. Why should I be bothered by any of that?

@LouStagner Lovely response from the Buffalo crowd. Buffalo has played the Canadian anthem for all games even if a Cdn team is not playing. Cda-US personal relationships are deep. Current friction reflects political differences not inter-personal ones between everyday citizens.

@ryanmouquegolf Is not a team event “its own format”? Conceptually, 2 sides of a draw is analogous to 2 contributions toward a final product / outcome? Both have some form of a gap against a complete format. I concede your point if you also think match play is not a justifiable win.

@RGARutledge My rational is a team win is not an individual win… cause they are a team Match play is its own format… 2 sides of the draw

I don’t think a “team win” should count as an individual PGA tour win But… That’s a really cool win nonetheless for the Fitzpatricks Great to see

@Jonny_Fairways @ryanmouquegolf If that is indeed one's shot pattern with the same club, then club up / down discussion is moot. I suggest this is an outlier example of a typical golfer and not relevant to the discussion at hand.

@RGARutledge @ryanmouquegolf If the 10 shots are: 182 175 172 170 166 161 155 150 128 115 Practice more. I have no clue how far you hit this club and neither do you.

Don't listen to those telling you to "Club Up" when hitting approach shots into greens Before you do that, you need to consider a few things... 1. Is being a little short REALLY that bad on that particular hole? If you do miss hit your shot, is there any trouble short? Or is it just a "simple" up & down? 2. Where's the flag? If it's on the front or middle of the green, then sure, club up, if it's on the back, it's better to be short of the flag which leaves you middle of the green... don't club up 3. If you do club up & flush it, what's long? Because that's potentially where you'll end up. Make sure there is nothing long of the green which could make your chip shot difficult You need to take into consideration these possibilities before just "clubbing up"

@Jonny_Fairways @ryanmouquegolf Who said anything about duffing shots onto the green. It is about playing the percentages and using your average distances to choose a club not one’s perfect shots. 6 million shots suggests amateurs play distances according to their perfect distances not average distances.

If your distance dispersion is so much that you need another club so you can duff shots onto the green… get on the driving range and learn to hit the ball. A game of misses is playing toward the middle of the green, when the pin is tucked, not duffing shots onto the green and needing to chip when you don’t miss the ball. For most players who aren’t terrible at golf “hit an extra club” is often bad advice.

@Jonny_Fairways @ryanmouquegolf Golf is a game of misses - Ben Hogan. Tiger said if he hit 2 perfect shots a tournament, he was doing well. Most amateurs club based on their perfect hits not their average hits. Club according to your average not your perfect hit.

@RGARutledge @ryanmouquegolf Every well struck shot going long of the green sounds like one of the worst ways to play the game. Oh, no I hit a good one, now I’m chipping. That advise is 🗑️ unless you’re playing for big money that day and you can’t hit the ball well very often.

@ryanmouquegolf I think we are mostly in agreement. One difference may be that I believe golfers following your excellent guidelines clubs to hit the middle of the green on a back pin only to end up being short of the green because of avg hit (vs. perfect). The planned putt becomes a chip.

I’m not disagreeing with this If we were talking purely about trying to hit the ball 150 yards then yes, maybe club up every single time But if we’re talking about playing golf and missing it in the correct spots, which is what my tweet is about then clubbing up is not always the best choice

@ryanmouquegolf I agree with your points....but ...the issue is that many amateurs have an unrealistic view of their distances which is borne out by the Arccos Database. Players are perennially short of the green because they choose a club based on their best hit vs. their average hit.

@RGARutledge Again… please read above… you need to take things into consideration before blanketly saying club up for everyone everytime I don’t disagree with clubbing up. But WHEN u club up is important

@LouStagner Golf is a sport of integrity. At the pro level, every player should take responsibility for their score and sign it accordingly. It is not about the pencil writing numbers, it is about a player's signature that reflects his score, not a computer documenting it.

Making players on the PGA tour maintain a paper scorecard is ridiculous. ShotLink tracks every shot to the inch, walking scorers log every stroke in real time, and TV cameras cover play from multiple angles. The Tour already knows every player's score with more precision than a scorecard could ever provide. The paper card is the least accurate record of what happened on the course. And yet it's the only one that legally counts. That's not golf. That's clerical idiocy. De Vicenzo lost a Masters because of a clerical error. So stupid. "Tradition" isn't an argument. We used to be able to carry as many clubs as we wanted. We used to have stymies. We used to not be able to clean the ball on the green. Etc... Rules evolve when the reasoning behind them does. "Player accountability" is a red herring. Players still call penalties on themselves. Integrity does not live in making sure your playing partner wrote down a number correctly on a scorecard. Obviously, amateurs and lower level tours without ShotLink and walking scorers still need manual scorekeeping. Different context, different rule. But on the PGA Tour, where every shot is already logged to inch-level precision before the player even reaches the scoring tent, the paper card is ceremonial at best and a DQ landmine at worst.

Can we get rid of these archaic scorecard rules? It’s literally 2026. They can track the ball’s path and spin rate yet this dude has to fill out paperwork every hole. What are we doing.

@alialagheband @herbertong Fair point on the silence — it cuts both ways. McCormick's underlying process findings — board disclosure failures, independence concerns — were based on trial evidence and were never overturned on the merits. The SC left the breach question unresolved, not decided either way.

They didn’t affirm her position. They were silent on the breach issue and ruled against her remedy. To suggest the Board breached its duties when shareholders voted twice to approve the package is ludicrous. And a judge who in her opinion writes Elon Musk is rich enough and doesn’t need the comp package is utterly biased and openly weaponizing the judicial system.

DON'T MESS WITH TESLA DON'T MESS WITH TESLA RETAIL SHAREHOLDERS! Never bet against Elon
Sawyer Merritt@SawyerMerritt

BREAKING: Delaware Judge Kathaleen McCormick has officially announced that she will no longer preside over multiple lawsuits involving @elonmusk and his companies after Elon's lawyers alleged she had shown bias against him after ruling against him in high-profile cases. Last week, Elon's attorneys wrote to the court pointing to a LinkedIn screenshot that they said shows she supported a post on the network celebrating Elon's defeat in a California civil fraud trial. In the past, Judge McCormick ruled against Elon with his $56B Tesla pay package case and the Twitter lawsuit. Here is Judge Kathaleen McCormick's full letter that she released today: "Dear Counsel: This letter addresses the motions for my recusal and to randomly reassign two of the three above-referenced actions. The motion for recusal rests on a false premise—that I support a LinkedIn post about Mr. Musk, which I do not in fact support. I am not biased against the defendants in these actions. In fact, I dismissed a suit against Mr. Musk just last year. The motion for recusal is denied. But the motion for reassignment is granted—I will reassign each of the three above-referenced actions. As should be obvious, disproportionate media attention surrounding a judge’s handling of an action is detrimental to the administration of justice. Fortunately, the Court of Chancery is far greater than any one person. I have complete faith in the Vice Chancellors’ abilities to adjudicate these matters. And three of them will. Please contact my Chambers to obtain a time for the random reassignment. All counsel are welcome to attend. But each of the individuals who signed the motion for reassignment or the joinder in that motion must appear to witness what they requested."

@alialagheband @herbertong For clarification, I am not defending this judge. I am suggesting that it is not clear cut. My point that the SC affirmed her position is a view of silence or narrow path which is subject to interpretation.

It’s not that “I think” she was wrong. I know she was because I am an accredited Tesla investor and knew exactly what I was voting for. You are defending this judge while ignoring that basic fact. Tesla shareholders overwhelmingly approved the package. TWICE. Furthermore, you should read the SC opinion. The SC in fact did not analyze or rule on the Board breach matter and stayed silent on that matter. They instead slapped her in the wrist with respect to the remedy which was contrary to the will of Tesla shareholders. TWICE. Although the Justices have **varying views on the liability determination**, we agree that rescission was an improper remedy and therefore choose that **narrower path** to resolve this appeal." Had the SC not reversed this asinine ruling, the corporation exodus out of the state of DE would have been catastrophic. It serves her right. She didn’t have enough common sense to not publicly endorse an anti-Elon LinkedIn post. Shameful.

@alialagheband @herbertong You may think she was wrong but the Delaware Supreme Court had a different view as it pertained to her conclusion that the Tesla Board breached their fiduciary responsibility. The SC, however, disagreed with her remedy.

Well she was wrong. Nobody breached any duties. As a Tesla shareholders we were given all the information we needed and voted for the package. TWICE. Overwhelmingly. Her ruling reads like a joke including making the point that Elon is rich enough so he doesn’t need the comp package. 🤣🤣🤣

@alialagheband @herbertong The DE SC disagreed with her remedy but found her findings of fact regarding the case / flawed process was sound. In other words, SC affirmed McCormick's underlying conclusion that the Tesla Board had breached its fiduciary duty.

@RGARutledge @herbertong Yes, except a 🐵 would have dismissed this case as well. 🤣 She twice rebuffed Tesla shareholders on Elon’s comp package. Twice. After we all overwhelmingly voted for it and she costs us millions in expenses. The DE SC had enough sense to overrule her at least. 🙄
