#AskESPNCaddie -- Is Jordan Spieth PGA Tour's player of the year?

— -- AKRON, Ohio -- Yeah, I know you missed me. I missed you too, but you know @ESPNCaddie has been busy this season learning about all kinds of social media things while traveling all over the world. But I'm back now and promise to stay with you as long as you'd like, answering all your important questions.

Same rules as always apply: Use #AskESPNCaddie on Twitter, ask whatever your golfing heart desires. I'll take the best questions and put them here on our page with one extra special tweeter getting a shout out in video.

Here's are this week's #AskESPNCaddie winners:

ESPN.com senior golf analyst Michael Collins: Not quite yet. If Zach Johnson or Rickie Fowler wins the PGA Championship, then one of them wins two playoff events, including the Tour Championship, they could overtake Jordan for player of the year.

Collins: The "fried egg" bunker lie is much more predictable as to how it will come out. When a golf ball gets into a "bird's nest" lie in thick grass, there are too many unknowns for most pros. I don't know any pro that likes either lie, but I know that if most pros had to choose between the two, they'd pick the fried egg lie.

Collins: That's a great way to ask that question, and the answer is yes -- to all of them. The game is that fickle. The guys out here are that good. The difference between winning and missing the cut is that razor thin from week to week. It's the reason hard-core golf fans are in hog heaven right now, but also the reason golf is having such a difficult time appealing to fringe fans. Without one or two dominant forces in the game, fringe fans won't get emotionally invested.

Collins: I know this is probably not the answer you are hoping for, but if you're thinking last week's three rounds in the 60s means Tiger will be in contention come Sunday of the PGA Championship, then no. He's not "trending up." On the other hand, if you're asking if Tiger, overall, is getting a little better than we've seen, then yes, he's trending up.

Collins: Yes, Tiger will win a tournament (if not two) in the 2015-16 season. He will not win a major, but will win a regular tour event. The question will be, after he gets his win, will it get him ranked high enough to get back into the WGC's?

Collins: Those with the biggest checkbooks get to make the rules. Or so it may seem on the LPGA Tour. I know that's not a pretty thing to say, but sometimes both perception and the truth are not pretty. I have zero issue with women's golf having five majors. I do have a problem with any tournament proclaiming itself a major and being force fed to people. That title doesn't get to be self-designated. The good news is that we (as individuals) can choose not to acknowledge it as such. Like when someone tries to give themselves a nickname, we can say, "No, you're just Bill."
