Just played him two rounds on next weeks' Empyreal, Round 3 and 4.
First round shot for shot we played until his hole in one on the back 9 blew it open. He is so amazingly consistent and then gets a bounce like that off the front hill of the green that is sloping right, it bounces left and into the cup. He gets even more bounces on the 17th after putting the first into the water on the driveable par 4, he loads up hits again and puts it 8 feet from the cup to save par.
Second round, once again he is sticking shots left and right and to just keep up i had to make a 38 foot putt with a huge break. I also chipped in three shots for birdie and holed out a 14 yard flop shot...all just to halve the hole. Finally on 18, he made his first mistake of the round and drove it into the rough, then a bunker. His third shot he played off a hill behind the hole and barely missed the birdie. I was able to make mine to win that round.
So in order to beat him, you have to be on your A game and pull shots outta yer arse just to keep up with him.
BTW the scores? Round one in 8-10mph tailwind off tee one. Brad -14 Ron -12 Round 2 7-10mph head wind off tee one. Ron -13 Brad -12.
I will say this playing with this man really brings my better game out, probably because I know I can't make any mistakes. In the end I got lucky to beat him as he was shooting almost flawless golf. Well played, sir.

I rarely get to beat, Brad so a bit of a brag post, but it was really out there to show how low he can go on this week's tour. -14 is pretty amazing.

I think he should give up everything and tell us all how to play that well. It is just becoming depressing for me.

How do you do this consistently and have the right number every time. That's what gets me and would love to figure out. I just hate having crap weeks.

It all comes down to consistently playing the game I think. Not sure if he plays anything else bar TGC.
