My BF and I were actually there today!! It was FREEZING cold, but I did get to meet Kenny Perry and Anthony Kim and even got their signatures. This was our first time at a PGA event and we'll def. be back. It was a lot of fun!! We hung out at the 8th hole where we could see them chip/putt on the 8th and the tee off on the 9th. Too bad it was cold though
:( but it was a lot of fun!!

What is cold to you? Its Southern California... I played a round saturday in 27 degree weather. ;)

I was able to attend the BMW Championship this year and it was amazing. Congrats on getting signatures, they had Cog Hill well secured so that nobody was able to get signatures. Still an amazing time.

That's cool.What was AK like?Kenny Perry always seems to have time for fans. What a round it was though.Camillo's Albatross, Harrington chipping in from the rough twice and Cink and.. someone else holing out from the fairway for eagles.Amazing
A great shot is when you go for it and pull it off. A smart shot is when you don't have the guts to try it. ~ Phil Mickelson.

OMG!! What amazing shots...they didn't show Kenny Perry's awesome putt where it turned and went into the hole...but he was super nice, I was able to catch him when they were hitting balls at the range there! Anthony Kim is super nice, too bad I'm not a little kid, he signed his hat and gave it to some kid... :(

Yeah, little kids have it good at pro tournaments. I saw a few kids from my course there today. Two of them, brothers, got hooked up. One got his hat autographed by a bunch of dudes. The other said he got one of AK's shoes on Saturday!? His shoe, and he signed it! Never heard of such a thing.

I have good news: this wasn't a PGA event. There's OWGR points at stake, but it isn't sponsored by either the PGA or the PGA Tour. I guess this means you have a great excuse to go to another professional tournament soon!

Next month there's one at Torrey Pines (La Jolla / north San Diego). February has one at Riviera (about half an hour south of Sherwood). March has one at Newport Beach CC (not to be confused with the executive course near the airport). From the general area that I think you are from, you can probably get to at least one of these. And Tiger should be at the first one.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 2: August 12.  I did 25 balls of the ruler drill from LSW for putting.  24 of the 25 stayed on the ruler through 36" but some were smoother than others.  I suspect if the ruler (and goal) had been 48" far fewer would have stayed on.  I'm trying to go by sound, and not look, since when I attempt short putts, I don't want to look (although now I wonder if that's conventional wisdom that turns out to be wrong).

      Course Ratings and Slope, Difficulty, and Hole Stroke Index

      By mdl · Posted

      I always knew it as high but never that distance was 90-95% of rating! That has always played to my advantage. I never have but I could totally vanity cap myself by playing **super** long courses that are otherwise super easy. There was one course like that in LA that I used to play that helped my cap like that. The back tees were close to 7k yards, but otherwise the course was incredibly easy. Wide open, misses almost always had a play at the green from the adjacent hole, flat greens, not challenging green complexes, etc. But it got a high rating because it was so long. So I could swing hard, spray and pray, and score well (relative to my handicap).
