I just bought a pair of general admission tix to the us open for the final round sunday. I don't know what to expect with the exception of huge crowds. I plan on initially watching some guys at the range and then parking my ass at the tee of one of the holes and waiting for the big shots to come through.

I've only been to one tournament before and I was running around like my head was cut off.

Any suggestions on how i should plan. I definitely want to see tiger, phil, etc, but I also want to make the most out of the experience.

thanks

Get there really early as it will be packed and parking will be a nightmare. I have heard that you park at Qualcomm and they shuttle you to the course which has to be at least a half hour. I am going Thursday and staying on my boat in Mission Bay Wed night and taking a taxi to Torrey to avoid the parking nightmare. You will have a blast. Walk around and take it all in. Watch some of the lesser groups ahead of the last few pairings as they are less crowded and you can see much closer up. I can't wait as it is gonna be fun

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
