Weather forecast looks dry for now, here's the one where some complain, too many amateurs and then it gets down to business on Sunday, but it's Pebble Beach, the Monterey Peninsula, the 17 mile drive, seals, etc... No McIlroy or Fowler, but Spieth, Day, Rose, Watson and DJ are in the field.

My money is on A-Aron Rogers! I like the Saturday broadcast when they go over their swings in painful slow motion!

I keep forgetting that Colt Ford regained his amateur status.  He used to be on the then-Nationwide Tour before his music career.  He hits a nice drive to start one of his videos, and if I weren't at work, I'd look up which one it is.

Chris Berman, you're an effing hack with a vanity cap. 

Just saw a GC replay of him yanking it into the water. His swing is fugly for an 18HC.

Not a bad start but 3 shots back from the leading "Sandbaggers" that are always in this event.

Apparently we aren't the only ones who don't want to see Chris Berman.

The PGA tour’s slogan is “These Guys Are Good,” but that doesn’t apply to the amateurs playing alongside professionals at this week’s Pebble Beach pro-am. One of those amateurs is Chris Berman, who may be finished with football but not yet finished inhabiting your nightmares.

I decided to post in good taste and not post the video of his swing. Some of you may be eating breakfast. If you dare, there's a video in the link.

You mean this?  Keep a bucket handy.  Lemme know if it's the regular kind or industrial strength sideways projectile. :-)

i hate everything about Berman.  i think hes a hack professionally and at golf.

Luckily were done with him for this year.  Today's PB groups don't have many celebrities so we're probably going to see a healthy dose of Condi Rice, Carson Daly and Andy Garcia.  (On the pro side, Na, Dufner, Lingmerth, Bohn, Kokrak, and Henley are a few who might get a lot of airtime)

The vast majority of the big names are there tomorrow.

Phil is tearing up MPCC today shooting a 5 under 28 on the back side (his first 9 today), though he has cooled of after birdieing 4 of the first 5 holes.

Any guesses as to whether you think he will stay hot on his second 9, or will he give some of it back?

Players play, tough players win!

Hiroshi Iwata shoots a 58 today !!!

Nine birds and an eagle.

No fantasy points for everyone in the second round.....

Ouch.....

I think it says 58 because he hasn't finished yet. PGA Tour website has him -6 through 17

    • Day 133 (25 Apr 24) - Worked with the Divot Board today added a piece of cardboad behind the ball to help reinforce ball first contact. Contact improved through the round.   Added grandson's football goal posts about 10yds out to add a good start line visual Good session today. 
    • Day 120: 4/25/24 Full Speed Spectrum training session. Low energy today and my speed was lower than normal. Will see what I can do on Saturday.
    • Day 541, April 25, 2024 Ten minutes after lessons. Still not caught up, but should be by tomorrow evening.
    • Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.
    • He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
