The Old White TPC has been the Greenbrier’s host ever since the tournament replaced the Buick Open on the schedule in 2010.

The Old White TPC features a par-3 finishing hole measuring 175 yards. The first three winners of the tournament birdied it in the final round. Stuart Appleby not only won the inaugural edition in 2010 with a 2, but it secured just the fifth 59 (of six) in PGA TOUR history. Both Scott Stallings (2011) and Ted Potter, Jr. (2012) connected for birdies on the final hole of regulation, and then survived playoffs for their maiden titles. Both Blixt and Cabrera parred the closer before walking off with the trophy.

Also Tiger's in the field.

Quote:
"We’ve got to have Tiger," Jim Justice, owner of the Greenbrier, said after Woods committed to playing at his tournament for the first time since 2012, according to Roanoke.com . "Tiger is one of the biggest stars in all of sport, and he brings significant attention to any event he enters."
Certainly, "taking the waters" in White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., couldn’t hurt the struggling superstar, who may want to try something new to revive his sputtering career after he posted the highest 36-hole score of his career at Chambers Bay and missed his first U.S. Open cut since 2006.

You know your expectations are low for Tiger when you open up The leaderboard on your phone and start looking from the bottom up for him cause you expect to see him down there. So this is a pleasant s

Did Tiger do well with the long stick? Bogey on a par 5, and a double or he'd be near the top... and I don't mean Amanda's top.

They should have paired Woods Daly and Weir. That would have been hilarious. :-D

Damn, I thought I saw his name in the field. :-( Woods, Daly and Singh?

That's not fair to Ol' Vijay, he's like a million years old. :-D Maybe Justin Leonard! You know, I really don't know why, but when I google "Justin Leonard" I get a bunch of a pictures of a dude in underwear. I really hope it's not just me

May not be the best place for this comment, but didn't want to start another thread........I have been watching the PGA Professional National Championship the last few days and while I know these guys are all very accomplished golfers, the talent difference between them and PGA Tour players is substantial....this is more of a statement of just how good PGA Tour players really are compared to the rest of the crop.

Anyway.........I will take Tiger against JD, and am calling for Tiger to put two consecutive rounds in the 60s to start.......68-69...............JD shoots 72-71

I'd watch for Ryo Ishikawa to have a good tourney,he still needs to qualify for the Open..

Tiger playing with Stricker should make him feel comfortable.Love to see Daly do well,depends if he turns up hungover or not????

I'm looking for Bubba to play well, he has a home on the course. He said that he enjoys sleeping in his own bed and getting up to play..Gonna be some major bills dropped in the casino apparently Shaq is going to show up.

The atmosphere is very college football tailgate. Swap out your WVU hat and put on your Callaway

I started him today in fantasy golf but I'm a little worried about his putting today. He putts mediocre on soft slow greens...always leaves it short. Kind of wish I would have started Bill Haas but whatevs.

      The Stack System - A Conversation on Gaining Swing Speed

      By DeadMan ·

      Here is a description of all the programs:  Programs & Training Programs and Training TheStack is a personal swing-speed trainer for golfers. Initially, each golfer is piloted through a series of swing speed tests to generate a force-velocity profile of their current swing. Qualitative data is... I think cruiser is meant for maintaining speed and flex can do more than that. But I'm just basing that on the descriptions that I linked.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By jsgolfer ·

      Both @DaveP043 and I play in our interclub matches every year, and have been team Captains as well.  There are always a few courses, mine is one, that win a lot of matches (we've won twice in the last 7 years), and we've been labeled as sandbaggers.  However, I really think that our course was rated too low (our greens just never seemed to get factored in enough), and thus our Handicaps were always a stroke or maybe 2 above, what they would've been if the course was rated higher.  And then when we went and played other courses, their slope and rating were much higher than ours, and sometimes I would get a 2 or 3 stroke bump on top of that.  It was definitely an advantage.  However, this past year, our course was rated again and the slope has gone up, so we'll see if we continue to have the same benefit.  Season starts this Sunday for us.

      A Novice Journey to Building a Bag. (Help Appreciated)

      By snapfade ·

      I would not do anything until I met with an instructor and got your swing looked at. There are some obvious better club options out there though. Spend 50 bucks on a lesson, practice and start piecing together a bag that works for you. Enjoy the journey.
