Anybody watching this? I sort of am but it's kind of boring - even for me, a self-admitted golf-watching nut.

Yeah, it has a 'Shells Wonderful World of Golf' exhibition feel to it. Plus, 2 of this years Major winners aren't there. Phil and Ooshuizen would have made it a little more interesting. And Ernie as a replacement is fine, but David Toms.. really? I know he's doing well and is a fine golfer, but you wouldn't exactly say he's a star attraction.
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.

 

What a joke...only 2 out of the 4 winners, it's a waste. I might watch part of it, just because there isn't much else. I didn't even know it was on yesterday.

Apart form the interaction we can hear from the mics between player and caddy...it's a 2-day joke event.

I watched Day 1, but deleted Day 2 from the DVR unwatched.

It's just not interesting watching the same 4 guys the entire time. Besides, after a while, I started feeling bad about rooting against Kaymer. :)

Seemed like a nice course, though.

Routing against Kaymer? How come?!

I think it's good to see a class, emerging talent surely?

In the UK, I couldn't view the grand slam, wanted to though.

Balls! No Way!

I searched around but couldn't find it. Were they showing highlights (or not!)?

Trust me not to find it on the biggest sports channel(s). Doh.

did anyone see Toms hit that wedge stupidly fat? then mcdowell thin that ball oput of the greenside bunker out of bounds?

I watched it mainly because I lived there for two years when I was in the U.S. Navy (1971-1973).

That wind can be a killer when it's 30 mph!

The couses are beautiful and the grass is always in terrific shape.

    • Day 21 - Good session with driver and 6i. Hitting real golf balls is quite a bit different from the foam balls, still getting used to that change. 
    • There are so many videos comparing and contrasting everything that I am both overwhelmed and more than a bit skeptical. Your comments above are much more valuable than hours of you-tube videos. Generally speaking, I’d much prefer to read something that someone took the time and trouble to write (such as your comments) than a bunch of videos, or worse, meaningless reviews that seem like they are all cut and paste selections of the same script. I’m more of a RTFM type than a watcher of “instructional” videos. By way of explanation, I don’t watch TV either.  So thanks - I’ll take that under advisement. I have an H3 that I bought for $10 that I’ve been carrying around but not sure why. Seems like a cool club, but I just don’t really know what to do with it. 
    • I was using the window as a mirror. Just trying to be a more aware of the feels for a better backswing. Trying to not be as closed from A1 to A2. Then not letting the club head flip inside. What I was feeling was a pressure my right wrist, and like the palm of my right hand was pushing upward against the grip of the club. My right hand was the underside of the swing path.  Going to play around with this a bit more. It looked pretty decent with mirror/window work. Just wanted to jot it down. 
    • Day 4: 3/26/25 Par4Success workout followed by putting through 50 mm gates.
    • Day 249: did a stack putting session and then worked on 5 foot putts for a bit.
