Transitions Championship at Innisbrook

[acj990]

So....lets head down to Tampa.

Will Tiger's commitment to the Bay Hill on Friday or the anticipation of his commitment take away from the Tourney? Also, who are you guys picking to win? Okay, maybe he won't actually commit, but I'm sure GC will be taking a lead with that. I'm gonna say John Daly will make some noise coming off his good play in PR, but I can definitely see Zach Johnson, and Padraig Harrington contending on Sunday afternoon. My wildcard for the week: Ryan Moore.

Cheers and Happy St. Patrick's week!

I wonder if I can get tickets for Thursday or Friday, might be nice to go watch someone else play for a change.

I wish I lived closer so I could go to a tourney. I had the opportunity to go to Bay Hill in 02 when TW won, and plenty of John Deere Classics, but definitely would like to go one of the bigger tourneys in the FL swing. If you get to go, enjoy. Then again, my home course here in IA opens tomorrow for the year, so I'll be playing!

Like to see Sergio Garcia do well, love his passion for the game and how he wears his emotions on his sleeve.

[Three Putt]

Ive been the last 3 years, it's a great tournament and lots of fun. The 17th green is the Hooter's Owls Nest....sort of a minature TPC Scottsdale 16th hole...gets pretty nuts on Saturday and Sunday

The driving range is pretty neat, you can stand about 20 feet behind the players, chipping green is to the left, putting green is up the hill a little

Best hole to watch tee shots - probably #6 tee - you can almost stand completely around the tee box and it's a tough driving hole, there is a big tree that guards the right and woods on the left. last year Nick Watney hit one of the longest drives (all carry) I have seen on this hole. Hole #7 is a good tee box to watch drives from also. Best viewing area to camp out - 13th green - you can see action on 11 fairway, 12 green, and 13 of course. You will probably enter from parking at the 7th hole, great holes right around that area - it is a little walk to the 1st/10th tee area. Best place to get beered up - Owls Nest 17th green 18th tee box, I think it's $50 to get in, I think I am getting some comps though.....I rule. Where some good walking shoes, course is pretty hilly

You are da man Three Putt!! That's perfect.

I never even thought about the driving range. That along with the optimal viewing areas.......greatly appreciated.

A lot of ugly holes, double and triple bogeys went around today. JD stood his ground well, was putting for birdie on damn near every hole it seemed.
