Yeah, looked pretty good, but golf is hard.

I am trying to make myself stop getting my hopes up but I really can't help it. I still think/want to believe he is going to have one last string of dominance. It would be one of the best sports stories ever.

He showed flashes yesterday it seems like enough to at least allow people to remember what his name is or think he still has that in him.
Do it again!

Made a shitload of birdies but had some bad swings. Didn't look like he didn't belong which is what he did the last bunch of times he teed it up. Feel pretty confident in saying he'll be in contention in a few tournaments in 2017 (if he stays healthy obviously).

Pretty encouraging performance, all things considered. He dominates the par 5s normally and he played those like shit this week. Thought his iron play was pretty damn good for being away 15 months. The other stuff will come with time.

It's encouraging he didn't get hurt but he beat Grillo, Knox and Justin Ross who withdrew.

right but I'd rather see him shoot 4 under with a ton of birdies and doubles than 4 birdies and pars. He made a lot of shots and shot a 65 one day. It's just about consistency.

It looked like Justin Thomas was going to cruise to a win and he just made double on 15

Justin Thomas' drives are works of art. He is no bigger than 5'9" 145 and he just absolutely demolishes the ball. Perfect balanced finish after swinging 120+. It's unreal.

I know Rory isn't that much bigger but he's jacked so it looks normal.
