DJ is contending so I'll probably check out some of it, not much else to watch.

Looks like a Nationwide Tour leaderboard right now. Where are the big boys?

Oh brother, are you going to say these kind of things Again for every tournament this year? How many times did you do it last season?

I don't consider this the first event of the season, but I suppose you have your reasons? Yes, I'm tore up about Tigs as well, and Depressed too.:whistle:

Changed my mind after catching some of it just now.  Conditions are miserable, fun to watch, regardless who's contending.

I'm sure we all would've preferred to see Fowler, Day, etc. in contention today, but there are plenty of decent names near the top. One of the co-leaders is a former Players champ, and that Jimmy Walker fella is pretty good at golf too. Woodland, DJ, and many others certainly aren't out either because of the crazy weather.

Billy Horschel's tee shot at No. 3

How brutal is it at Torrey Pines right now? This 5-iron only made it 134 yards.

The wind was simply unplayable except for Snedeker.   However, when play resumes tomorrow, Walker & Choi will likely face the similar weather.   Looks like Snedeker did enough to win.

The wind made them look like they were me playing! Drives with 215 carry!

Sky's coverage in the UK has just started, but there is a 2hr delay to make repairs to the course.

It looks like the course took a huge pounding overnight, 2hrs might be hopeful!!

I'm not sure its even the same course any longer, sight lines changed by fallen trees, trees not blocking shots any longer. Its a mess.

I hope the weather stays the same.  Sneds earned it.  It would be a shame if the others get to play nearly a full 9 in anything different than yesterday's conditions when a bunch of others completed the full 18.

The forecast doesn't look like the wind will let up.

I hope so too.  I took an hour dog walk this morning and there was a 40 minute period around 8 am when the wind was calm.  I live about 5 miles from the course.

    • I find the #1 less difficult. It’s narrow, and longer, but if you’re in the trees you can find your ball and punch out.    The narrowness of this course and the small greens make it a tough one, especially at my skill level. I’ve always just tried to hit the ball as far as possible and got into trouble. This year I’m hoping to use a bit more thought and actually try to play golf. 
    • Yea I’d be willing to bet the scoring average on the hole is higher than you might think given that it’s the #2 handicap hole and it’s so short. Keep the big number off the scorecard here.
    • Thats the second hardest hole so bogey is ok. How do you do on the number 1 hardest hole?
    • Ah, target golf off the tee and all the way to the hole always grinds my gears, This is not a terribly long hole so here's my two cents: Job #1 is to put yourself in play. Job #2 is to keep yourself in play. If hitting a driver is such a crap shoot then you are already betting on lower than 50-50 odds. Hit a hybrid and take your chances with a long iron, punch or whatever. Stick to your plan and accept your result knowing you did. 
    • Ah, got it.  Yeah I'd just play it for bogey. Even as a low handicap I wouldn't be all that upset with a bogey on that hole.
