It amazes me how he can move his feet that much and strike the ball as good or most times better than his peers. I have gotten a bad habit of sliding back a little in my backswing and I struggle terribly with consistent strikes. Not sure I’m making contact with his golf swing.

It is amazing. He has great hands to keep everything together thru contact and get all that power.
Love watching him play.
My son and Scottie have the same golf coach. That guy is SaltyTexan for sure

at the wrong time in Our Backswing . . . “These Guys Are Good” was an appropriate advertisement plugging the PGA a few years ago . . . and it still rings true!!!
Week Zero of College Football will be fun with a bit of Golf stirred in!!!

It's here. Ladies with a nice soccer W and volleyball was electric for the opener last night. Men's Soccer will bounce back.
Pulling hard that Lucas can have a special weekend. Jacob has put himself in position to not only make a run at his first pro W but with a solid weekend can secure his PGA card. I really have belief that Jacob can become Clemson's best ever tour player.
Sam's got to have two more career rounds to punch his ticket back to the big boys.

isn’t worth watching today . . . unless you’re a Leprechaun.
Lucas is 1 Under through his first 7 Holes (Clean Card, 1 birdie) and has moved Up to T-14th Place . . . for those unable to watch.
East Lake GC appears to be playing a bit harder today . . . we’ll see how the contenders handle her.

of what could have been . . . Sure the bogey and double bogey in the attachments he would love to hit again . . . but what about the 7 approach shots he had of 160 yards or less which he did NOT birdie???
Hole #3 - 159 yards . . . Hit it to 8’ 10” . . . But made Par
Hole #5 - 111 yards . . . Hit it to 31’ . . . Made Par
Hole #7 - 152 yards . . . Hit it to 23’ 5” . . . Made Par
Hole #8 - 129 yards . . . Hit it to 40’ 11” . . . Made Bogey
Hole #10 - 122 yards . . . Hit it to 27’ 3” . . . Made Par
Hole #12 - 107 yards . . . Hit it to 14’ 7” . . . Made Par
Hole #13 - 135 yards . . . Hit it to 17’ 8” . . . Made Par
Hole #16 - 160 yards (from fairway bunker) . . . Hit it to 22’ 9” . . . Made Par
Hole #17 - 130 yards . . . Finally!!! . . . Hit it to 7’ 9” . . . Made Birdie
Hole #18 - a Par 5 . . . He has 242 to the flag as they Suspended play . . .
Lucas is a better ball striker than this!!!

Glad you put this together. This is the story of his tournament this weekend. The number of approaches he's had that come up 20-30 yards short is mind boggling. And I'm talking 8 irons or less. Maybe the course just doesn't suit his eye.
Could so easily be top 5. At least top 10. Thanks for listing.

Gave himself a chance. One more day Jacob. You got this. Kim is just in a zone the last few weeks... but so has Jacob, less his 2nd rnd last week. The difference is his putting. Jacob's scrambling numbers are of the charts but his putting on gir is 32nd. 1.72 per green. Not many one putts. Said it before, it'd be nice to see stats like the PGA. We'd have an idea of the lengths.
We'll see that in January once he's on the big boys tour. I'm thinking if he can scratch out a -3 or -4 round tomorrow, he'll finish top 5. I believe my numbers are correct and it'd give him enough points to be mathematically impossible for him to fall below 30. Hence his card is secured.
Go Tigers. Congratulations to Lucas for hoisting trophies b2b. I'd still pick him as a captains pick. Ain't no quit in him. He'd crush it in alternate shot and best ball and hold his own in matchplay.
