The Tour Championship has a scoring system. There is a time and a place for this.
The New England team doesn't start the game with a big lead. Alabama doesn't have a big lead at the start of the game. The Warriors didn't start the NBA finals with a big lead.
Max Homa wonders if the points leader should have a 2-shot lead over everyone else before the first tee shot in the Tour Championship.
The PGA Tour only uses the staggered scoring system at the Tour Championship. We discuss it a lot. I listen to what the media says about it. I have been saying this recently. I don't think it's a good idea. I don't know what the answer is so I won't complain.
We're not football, we're not basketball, and we're not baseball. Is it necessary to start the Pats with a two-touchdown lead because of their perfect record? They should have won the Super Bowl. Golf is different than football.
Homa's comments came after he posted the second- lowest round ever at the Tour Championship on Friday, a bogey-free 62 that left him 10 shots behind leader Scottie Scheffler.
At the Tour Championship, where the FedEx Cup points leader starts at 10 under, he was better than everyone else.
In the final three holes of Friday's second round, the fourth-ranked golfer in the world made up four shots, including an eagle on the par-5 18th hole, to finish at 7 under. The two men are tied after 36 holes.
If starting strokes were not used, the group would be at 11 under after 36 holes.
Instead, he's 19 under after 36 holes and is 2 shots in front of the other two.
It's doable, but he's playing good golf. The man said of the person. We have to keep on playing good golf as well. It will take a strong weekend from me and hopefully not from Scottie. We're looking for that.
