Well if that's the case, I'd also claim to show up, then have a mysterious accident with a vacuum cleaner and a hoola-hoop, not show, then collect 100G. Sweet deal.

But in all honesty they did earn it... I'd make them play to get it, but that's quite a short list to make.

I've read what others said about Phil and Tiger not showing and in all honesty I just think there's way too much money _off_ the course rather than on the course. Some of these guys get more to show up then to actually win... truly if you don't have the fire to win, it seems you can get your paycheck elsewhere so why show up?

I watched a week ago Ernie looking at what he'd have to do to make that final 30 cut. I personally liked watching someone who makes a lot of money actually have a burning desire to compete at the championship (I'm not saying he was the only one).

As I write this, I predict my man Vijay turns it on for Sunday!

I have a good feeling I could make it work though, especially since all guys in The Tour Championship have earned a couple million already this season. I could definitely make it work.

i'm sure his 104,000 dollars just for turning up and going home would have easily covered his expenses, as thrash said anyone could all easily make it work.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      I have trouble with vertigo on occasion, but have gotten nutritional and biofeedback tips to keep it at bay. Dehydration can help trigger v-like symptoms so one recommendation, along with maintaining overall hydration, is to start with 8 oz. of water early in the morning. A meta-analysis on Golf As Physical Activity indicated that golf is rated as a moderately intensive physical activity. This scientific literature review came from the University of Edinburgh. The physical activity level ties into hydration. A former university colleague was a marathon runner who had published a couple of articles on endurance training. He likewise said that golf was a moderate physical activity especially when the round stretched past  the two-hour mark. For hydration he recommended switching from water to electrolyte drink on the back nine (past two hour point of exercise) to prevent cramping. At the two-hour point of moderate activity, water starts flushing electrolytes out of the body, which can lead to fatigue and cramping. (I have had trouble with leg cramps in the past during exertion.) During a round, I start out with water on the front nine and switch to sports drink on the back nine. If the day is unusually hot, I may drink 8 oz. of Pedialite concentrate before going to the course. Maintaining overall hydration plus on-course boosters keeps me going.

      Puerto Vallarta Vacation / Vidanta

      By Mystique · Posted

      Personally I’d try booking direct first - either via the Vidanta golf reservations number/email or through the resort concierge - especially for Christmas/New Year. Vidanta’s main courses (Greg Norman and Nicklaus designs) are popular and can book out fast this time of year, so direct often gives you the best shot at your preferred tee times.
