Davis Love the 3 for the Masters?




Great news that Davis Love is playing the Masters this forthcoming week.

For a player that's in the twilight of his regular tour career this man can still mix it with young guns of the tour. It's actually a mystery how he hasn't won more than the one major title. With huge length off the tee and a great short game it's hard not imagine that Love will be able to at least post a top 10 this week. If you're a betting man I think an each way bet is a good bet.

The Masters is here. Let the golf season begin.

Truth & Rumors: Rose to putt Augusta with eyes closed?

Just read this article that talked about the Englishman Justin Rose putting with his eyes closed on the last day at the Bay Hill Invitational played last week.

Putting with the eyes closed is something most of the golfers in the world would find difficult to get thier heads around. The point to the exersice though is to develop a feel between the technique and the distance between you and the hole. Its similair to throwing a ball. Imagine standing about 5 metres away from a mate closing yuor eyes and underhand throwing the ball. I bet with some practice that you would get in their hands more than you would beleive. Its instinct to throw, we have all been doing since were in nappys. 

What Rose is trying to do its a bit of this and also trying to gain some trust with the movement. Its a great drill on the putting green. Starting from close and working your way out you'll slowly develop that instinct thats sitting deep within your brain.

Remember putting is 90% chemical and 10% mechanical.
