I think Faldo said something like Gay could add more yards if he just allowed his hands to release through the ball instead of holding on. He said this during an analysis of Gay's swing where Gay held the flying wedge perfectly.

It must be kinda harsh for the players to watch the play back and listen to the commentary on their round. The announcers do need to make good t.v. after all, with the accent on "make". I bet most guys do it with the sound off. I loved Nick in his prime though. His pivot to hands, 8 iron from 145 prime.

After Nick put the green jacket on Tiger in '97 he began an effort to increase his distance, that I think anyways, played a part in his eventual demise as a player. At around that time he was invited to Shady Oaks to meet Ben Hogan whose advice to him was to forget about how far down the fairway he was but instead focus on being on the correct side of the fairway.

Brian could win on any course. Fairways and greens take precedent over driving distance stats.
