new stars shine every year.

They do indeed, but then they burn out just as quickly. Getting to the top is a very different matter than staying there--ask Spieth, McIlroy, Koepka... Dustin Johnson has built the most consistency.

The depth of the game has change since the Duvall- Woods - Mickelson era

Hence Woods attempting to keep up with the power distances (Foley) of Bubba , Johnson , Koepka , and a host of others. Depth.

Bryson winning the US Open. TGM mechanics
Total distance. Wedge 60 deg second shots

Can’t see the sit-down position ever returning in Woods again

Upper body (hitter) maybe. Micky Mantle , Columbus CC Oaklahoma +300 off season.

Regardless , so matter how the media sponsor “good” sugar , a bad decision was made in this crash.
How many other SUVs crossed the road into other lanes , flipped. , and crushed the front end there?
With major hospitalization.

You’re right.

I actually enjoy the rivalry, Have several “favorites,” am happy when any one of them wins. Or almost wins. Makes the game exciting to watch. McIlroy was terrific from the first day he stepped on a PGA course and had a very long run too. Mr. Dechambeau started by being amazing, and now misses cuts. Speith, Rahm, Schauffele are on my faves list and I like Ryan Palmer too for reasons none of my friends umderstand: His name is perfect, I plan to use it in a novel I’m writing.

Dustin Johnson is great but it bothers me that he has a beard. Upsets my image of golfers as clean-cut young men. But I’m a girl, so I get to have unsportsmanlike opinions. Reed is fat, also violates my image though his short game is amazing.

I do wish Tiger all the best. I would never have become a golf fan without him.
