Well, I know it's always tough to recover from Masters weekend, but does anyone really care about the tournament this week on the PGA Tour?

I know none of the top ten guys will be there, but there are still some guys who can play the game and step up at anytime.

I know there are some guys in the field I am ready to watch this weekend, and I hope they do well. Also, Cink and Love III have won 7 times on this course between the two of them. So that should make it more interesting.

I know I won't watch near as much as I did this past weekend, but I'll definitely tune in to see if some of my less popular favorites play well at Harbour Town.

Does anyone else here really care for this upcoming tourney?

By the way, my preview can be found on the main page of The Sand Trap. It's a good read, check it out.

He beat me to it. I love the course and I love watching how players play it. It's almost like a back-to-back "throwback" special with Augusta last week (though, admittedly, neither course is playing much like they did 25 years ago).

I love the course (I've played it), LOVE the plaid jacket, but I have to say, I tend to agree with Tiger that a short season MIGHT make watching the Tour a little more attractive. I'm a little burned out after last week's Masters...I'm building my patio!

I watch all golf. But my interest in this is not real deep. I'm still in Masters withdrawl.

Yeah, it's tough not to be after such as great week at Augusta. And I won't get to watch this tournament much this weekend, as I'll be visiting some friends back home. And I never get to watch 1st and 2nd round coverage because I get off work right when it usually ends for the day.

I'm just glad to see Furyk have a good solid round today and move into the top 10 for the tourney. Hopefully, he will stick around the top and pull out a win on Sunday. He came into the day 9 strokes off the lead, and now he is only 3 off.

Thrash, sounds to me like you need a TIVO!

I'm starting to realize that more and more everyday, especially since I started working for The Sand Trap. It would make my life much easier, especially since I'm gone a lot of weekends and stuff.

TiVo. It's corny, but it will change your life. Everyone says it, and they mean it. And don't settle for imitators (i.e. those cable PVRs). The interface, as any Mac user can tell you, is critically important.

This golf course in in good shape for a total of 3 weeks throughout the year. It sucks when the tournament isn't there and they still want close to $300 for a round there. IMO there are about 5 better courses in the HHI area - Colleton River (both courses), Oldfield, Long Cove Club, Belfair (both), and Berkely Hall (both).

In the bag:
Titleist 983K
Titleist 904F 15*
Titleist 904F 19*
Titleist 990 3-PW Titleist Vokey 256-12 56*Cleveland Gunite 60*Odyssey 990 putterTitelist Pro-V1*

      I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.

      Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.

      Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
