Moving from the US Open in the northwest to New England.  We had some nasty weather yesterday in the area including a tornado warning.  The weather for the rest of the week looks pretty good.

Expert picks from pgatour.com.

http://www.pgatour.com/expert-picks/2015/06/23/travelers-championship.html

  1. Snedeker looked good in the US Open and seems to be improving.
  2. Will Billy Ho whine about these greens?
  3. Tony Finau got a lot of air time last week. Big hitter.
  4. Louis O is coming off a great final round.  Can he keep it up?
  5. Do you all have posting fatigue from the US Open thread?

Cool!  Thanks for posting.  Fenway is 11 miles south of me and the storm was south of that.  It looks menacing!

Does a course like the Traveler's try to be easier to attract a better field?

Man, I just can't get into this tournament and it's in the state I grew up in. After last week's event, this is quite a let down. Shut it off and cancelled taping the series after about 30 minutes. I find that is often the case after a particularly good major. Bring on the Scottish Open!

Yep, love that event and it's the lead-in to The Open so it pumps me up. (The British is my favorite major.)

True, true. I like following the Euro Tour but I don't really catch a lot due to the time difference and watching it recorded just isn't the same haha.

Good ol' Jerry! We know Jerry. We used to joke with him that his site should have been called "****afarmer.com".
