That flag position on the 1st seems very unfair. 2nd seems odd too. I've only seen 1 player hit either of these greens so far

But you do not have to hit green on 1st to make birdy...

Gmac - this is (almost) his backyard & if it's windy, he'll have the advantage.       Poulter is off to a surprisingly good start ... would like to see him do well for a change.

Birdie, birdie, ace, birdie stretch for DJ, and he's put himself on the yellow board. The Americans have a standard-bearer who isn't wearing a hoodie now. Bryden McPherson, this year's Amateur Champion, plays collegiate golf at Georgia; he's playing with Georgia Tech grad Matt Kuchar. That could make for an interesting grouping, especially with Harrington filling out the threesome. McPherson is invited to next year's Masters, and given that Athens is an hour's drive from Augusta, he'll have plenty of opportunities to scout the course.

Something going on between Gmac and Paula Creamer? She wished him luck on twitter a while ago. She wished no one else luck

They both won U.S. Opens in 2010. That's all.

I saw on the Golf Channel they were teamed up in some exhibition tournament recently - she kicked his @ss !!     He spoke very highly of her (game) during the interview

It's like calling the Nissan Open Northen Trust Open the "Los Angeles Open". Nobody has any idea which tournament you're referring to.

So, will there be any kind of online video feed for this tournament on Saturday?  I will be traveling to Vegas at 2AM PST and I'd like to watch it on my phone if possible.

Depending on your cable provider, the ESPN app will have it.

looking at the scorecard - this course has two 240+ yard PAR 3's !!     HOLY SHNIKES ...  the average guy would have to hit a driver or at the very least a hard 3 wood to just make the green on a par 3

As long as you go skateboarding in the big bunker of the 4th hole I think there is nothing wrong! :D

    • Even injured Tiger had a more impressive career than Jack against much stiffer competition. This was confirmed by Jack quite a few times. You want to ignore that, but it’s fact.
    • Day 201 3-5 Wider backswing and higher. Practiced consisted of mostly backswing today. Wrist arching through downswing still a focus on full shots with a pause.  Will probably have a 2nd practice tonight blending wider backswing into more of full swing without pause at the top. 
    • Scooted over to the range today in the rain to see how it goes when I try to hit one. The rehearsals I think look reasonable, but then get worse when I try to hit the ball. I think it’s better than it was but still a ways to go. Including the rehearsals in these two videos. One dtl and one fo. I still don’t understand what I need to do on the way down to stop that fugly shoving outside of the hands. Seems unlikely that will just disappear when I get the backswing position right. I have a feeling that lack of understanding of the next step might be holding me back some.     
    • Of course, injuries suck, but that's no excuse. jack was competitive from 1962-1984 or so. 1979 wasn't very good sure (first winless season) but every other season during that timeline he was in the top 16 in the money list. That is a crazy long time. And notice I didn't even include 1986 because he was "only" 34th in the money list that year and 43rd the year prior.  Like you said yourself Tiger was injured what felt like more often than not post 2009. When he was healthy enough to play a full season he did really well (2012-2013, and 2018-2019).  I like Tiger too but you are seriously downplaying what Nicklaus did. Nicklaus was not normal, he is a crazy outlier just like Tiger.  The funny thing is Jack played a reduced schedule compared to his peers and yet he still played way more than Tiger up to his final win. I got him at 477 excluding amateur starts up to 1986 while Tiger is 364 if we exclude his am starts, 345 up to his last win at the Zozo. Just pointing that out because you said he only played a handful of events in those later years.
