FedEx Cup Lives Up to the hype

Tiger Wins the FedEx Cup title and a $10 million “bonus”, as Lefty wins the Tour Championship with a final-round 65.

I even missed some of the EAGLES game to root for my home town guy – Sean O’Hair. It was close all day and came down to the last few holes.

I’m always looking for things to work on while I watch and found plenty today. 

- I’m going to work on my sand shots for one.  These guys hit it better out of the sand that out of the rough and almost as good as chipping off of the fairway. 

- I’m going to work on hitting greens. Next to putting this is the easiest way to improve your score. I don’t know that I’ll be hitting greens from 200-plus like the pros, but I don’t think 160 is too much to ask for.

—- I read a stat last week that said amature golfers only hit greens in regulation 15 percent of the time.  With 4 out of 18 being 22 percent that’s not saying much.

*** My tip of the day is to start tracking your game ***

Get your self an extra score card and chart
1) Drives in the fairway
2) Greens in regulation
3) putts

I started this year and it’s really pointed to areas of my game that need work.

Good golfing – Jay
