The Turkish Airlines Ladies Open started on Sunday and the final round will be played on Wednesday.  This is the first tournament that they've tried with this schedule.
While there's no way to know if the new schedule works The LET's sponsors seem to be in favor of the change: The purse for this year's event is double what it was last year.

I can honestly say I've never watched a LET event, but live golf at the beginning of the week? Sounds good to me.

Makes sense, only way I would watch would be if there wasn't a better tournament already. Looked at their youtube page and final round coverage starts tomorrow at 7am, too bad I'll be working as I wanted to check out the ladies talked about in the other LET thread.

A heaven sent for me.  My wife and I can't wait until Thursday for tournament broadcasts to begin.  She watches everything (LET, Champions, PGA, LPGA) and I watch Tiger & LPGA only.   Now, I can watch live golf on Monday through Wednesday after coming back from work.  I just wish it was LPGA that's doing that - some LPGA events are tape delayed b/c their schedule conflicts with men's events.

Having said that, I watched 2nd & 3rd rounds of this week's LET tournament.  Quality of golf is very poor, far below LPGA and KLPGA (which I watched for two seasons).  But it is still interesting.   Well, it's better than no golf.

      Strategy - Inverary Golf Club Hole 14

      By klineka ·

      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.

      Haha I made a I typo. I was thinking two things at once, ‘I don’t think bogey is a bad score’ and ‘I think bogey is a great score’. But I mixed them up and said the opposite

      How isn't bogey a great score? As a 20 handicap every single time you make a bogey you are playing better than expected. Because if you bogeyed every hole you'd most likely be lower than a 20. You're a high handicap playing a hole that is lined with hazards the entire length of it on both sides.  Bogey is a very solid score for you on that hole.  From 300yds off the tee PGA tour players average 3.71 strokes to hole out. As a high handicap you are going to be more than 1 full stroke higher than that, probably closer to 2 full strokes higher.  If you had 100 different 20 handicaps play that hole I would bet a lot of money that the scoring average is greater than 5.0 Sometimes courses have really hard holes. Play for your bogey, be ecstatic about a par, and do everything possible to minimize double bogey.

      I don’t think bogey is a great score here. Will try the 7i - 7i approach. If I’m short, I think I can get out of the bunker and if I’m on the right I can chip up.
