Just concept I'd acquire some things I've heard over the last few days and link to a few more in-depth data approximately them (if available). All-in-all, I've got 6 quick announcements you may have ignored.
First of all, all through the final round of the Lorena Ochoa Invitational, GC's Tom Abbott did verify that Suzann Pettersen is now running with Butch Harmon. I mentioned that she had left longtime instructor David Leadbetter some weeks lower back and wondered if Suzann changed into running with Butch final week, however now we know for sure. Given the dramatic change Rickie Fowler has visible in only three hundred and sixty five days, this alteration may want to have a prime impact on subsequent yr's LPGA outcomes.
Tim Rosaforte mentioned several bits on Monday's Morning Drive. One note is that Tiger is working on his swing by himself for now -- although he's been bouncing ideas off Notah Begay III, which has been common knowledge for weeks -- but also that Tiger has apparently been trimming down as well. Some will suspect it's a result of all the criticism he's received for getting "too big" while others speculate that it may be a result of the swing he's building.
If Rosaforte is correct, I suspect it's the latter; whilst LeBron James left the Miami Heat to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers, he additionally trimmed down because he predicted to play a unique function with the Cavs. Rosaforte theorized that Tiger is probably going back to the manner he swung whilst he first got here on Tour. Should be exciting while he indicates up at his very own event in early December!
Also referred to is that Dustin Johnson expects to return to the Tour for the Farmers Insurance Open in February, assuming his fiance delivers their new infant in time. You can examine a greater distinctive piece approximately DJ on this golfdigest.Com blog publish; even as Rosaforte says this date additionally coincides with the rumored 6-month suspension, it appears DJ has made some critical existence changes in the intervening time. If so, the go away changed into really worth it.
Lost in all the excitement remaining week became the news that Augusta National has delivered a third lady member -- this time, it is IBM CEO Virginia (Ginni) Rometty.
Another bit of buzz worries the tweet Greg Norman sent Ian Poulter after he missed that putt to tie Brooks Koepka in Turkey. ("Mate observed some thing to your putting once I watched you yesterday. Easy fix.") You can take a look at out the complete verbal exchange in this thread at Ian's Twitter account. And yes, Ian says he wishes the help.
This final one is also from Rosaforte, about Phil Mickelson's low season education ordinary. Apparently Phil has misplaced 10 pounds and introduced 6mph to his swing, with plans to lose 20 pounds and add 10mph once he is completed. If Phil and Tiger can both get in form to compete with Rory subsequent 12 months... WOW!
I assume that covers the maximum essential bits I've heard... And now you've heard them too.
