Whos gonna win?

With this week's tournament finishing on Monday it is questionable what will happen with the Tavistock Cup.

Lake Nona has Els, Goosen, Sorenstam, Immelman, Stenson, Poulter, and Rose. While Isleworth has Appleby, Allenby, Howell, and Creamer. I think Lake Nona has a larger amount of better players (so I've voted for them). Out of the men playing Goosen is currently in the best form (shooting a 64 in the 3rd round of the CA tournament). Each year it seems to be a toss up (who knows if the players take it very seriously). http://www.thegolfchannel.com/core.a...1&select;=25339

In my bag:

Driver: Burner TP 8.5*
Fairway metals/woods: Burner TP 13* Tour Spoon, and Burner TP 17.5*
Irons: RAC MB TP Wedges: RAC TPPutter: Spider Ball: (varies ) (Most of the time): TP Red or HX Tour/56---------------------------------------------------

I don't think the Tavistock Cup is a very important event.

Its the biggest Club Match in the World

The Tavistock Cup is a big event--its as close to the Ryder Cup or the Presidents Cup as you can get

Easy, there, I wouldn't compare it to the Ryder Cup or President's Cup. Not to sound cynical, but this is a money making event for IMG. All the guys aren't playing for personal glory or club pride, they're playing for money and a decent chunk for just two day's pay.

If it were truly to be compared to a Ryder or President's cup, then open it up to the public and let them see the competition. Don't make it a social event where only residents and invited guests can watch it. It's just another way for IMG to make money for themselves and their players. The only benefit we get is to watch Tiger and some other good players wear the most gawdawful golf shirts in the world.

By the way, can those shirts get any more ugly? Every year the Tavistock Cup uni's get uglier and uglier.

909 D2, 9.5 with Matrix Ozik XCon 5

909 H, 19 & 24 with stock Aldila Voodoo S
AP2, 5-PW with Project X 5.5
CG10, 52 gap wedge CG10, 56 sand wedge Spin Milled, 60 lob wedge Newport 2.5

I don't either, but sometimes exhibtion matches are where you can take some risks and pull off some crazy stuff. I like the format too.

In my bag are
Hibore XLS 10.5*
Hibore XLS 22* 3i Hybrid
TA7 irons 3-PW, SW
CG11 60* LW VP #5 putter.

its not about the players making money at all! the winning team gets $1million and its split between the players to give to charity! ie each player gets $100,000 to donate to charities of their choosing. The players only get prizes for the challenges like closest to the pin, longest drive and hole in ones.

Also there is no reason for it being open to the public as it is a match between two private courses.
