Great tournament. This will be the first year I've missed since 2003. Farr puts on a nice tourney and is obliging to everyone, not to mention the celebrities he has are usually decent.

No surprise about Creamer. The course can be had, and the wet weather in this area lately will allow the players to go at it.

To those who have attended the tournament, what would you recommend I do on Saturday? I'll be going with the wife and my 5yo daughter.

Any particular hole to sit at? I haven't seen big crowds on the TV the past few years, and I'm used to PGA Tour events, but then again I'm usually inside the ropes and not with my wife and kid.

In the five years I attended, I may have walked the course only twice, but it is an easy walk. A vast majority of my time was spent in/around the grandstands at #9 & #18, the putting green, driving range, and #'s 1 and 10 tees. All of those areas are incredibly close to each other and virtually a stone's throw away. You literally walk off the putting green onto #1 tee, with the clubhouse directly behind you. Makes it nice for autographs and getting close to the players. It shouldn't be that busy -- the busiest I had ever seen it was on a practice round day in 2005 when Ben Roethlisberger (when he had his fling w/Gulbis) was there, but it will undoubtedly be different for you on Saturday. There should be plenty of seating or smaller grandstands on the course.

The corporate tents aren't anything to shake a stick at, and it definitely lacks the aura of a PGA event, but it is more of a personable experience to me. Sylvania isn't exactly a mecca, not much to recommend outside the area unless you zip over to Toledo.

She occasionally plays them on other days, but I'm not sure of when/why.

She plays it any day she fancies, I think. then when she makes a birdie with a pink ball, money goes to charity.

She obviously picked a good day to use it today!

I was planning on going yesterday but work got in the way. Now I'm thinking about Sunday unless one of my friends calls and says "Heck with watching, lets play".

I thought I heard on Golf Central last night that she is playing the pink ball all week this time.

Anybody know why she was playing a pink ball on a Thursday? Thought those were only for Sunday.

Owens Corning is the title sponsor of this tournament and they make that pink housing insulation with the Pink Panther mascot. She's using the pink balls in all four rounds, instead of just on Sunday like she normally does, to keep with Owens Corning's pink theme (no joke).

This direct from her in an interview on TGC last night.
In the bag 8/12/09:
R9 w/ 63g S Fubuki | 909F2 13.5º | 909H 19º | MP-67 w/ Project X 5.5, 3-PW | Spin Milled 52â¢04, 56â¢08, 60â¢04 | BC1, 35" | Tour One | uPro

Hcp: 5.9
Trend: 5.2

And the Pink Panther is their "mascot".

D'uh. How could I have missed that?

Yeah Paula! And a really good final round for Nicole Castrale

What a lucky trophy that is.

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂
