Not if it rains like it can in the UK during the Ryder Cup :)
I am a member at the Celtic Manor and while it has been the only club with courses to stay in decent condition through this wet and snowy winter, it will be no where near the lush fairways and greens (plus lack of rough) the US PGA plays on each week.

Saying that though October is typically Wales dryest month of the year so we will see.

I still agree with Pavin in that the big stars of the US team need to come over and play the 2010 course in this years Welsh Open to get a feel for the course, the £1,800,000 first place should be reason enough for them to come, if not to do some homework.

I dont think the euros have an advantage. Our young players Like Mahan, Kim, Ohair etc.. have experience and are getting better all of the time. Vets like Furyk and Stricker will set the tone and are good match players. The cup stays here!

Excited is a pretty strong word. There are a lot of great tournaments to watch and there's an entire summer of golf to be played before then. I'll start getting stoked on October 1st - I have a picture from one of the holes as my computer desktop actually. It's from a Welsh tourism site.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
