Looking forward to spending a few days at TPC with some golf as well at the World Golf Hall of Fame.

TW has got to be odds on fav, right?

Course will play soft, slow -

Will spend Tues watching practice round (if open), otherwise will go find a course via Golfnow.  Wednesday will play King and Bear at WGV (purchased a deal through Golf Now Deal Caddy). Twosome will pay about $40/ea rather than their current rates which I see are over $100.  Then Thursday at TPC again.  Weather is supposed to be in the high 70s, low 80s. Unheard of weather for May here in FLA, really.

Can imagine TPC is sopping wet - built in lowland swampland.  Better bring mosquito repellant, too.

Looking forward to watching this. Sadly I'll be driving through Kansas or Missouri when Sunday's round finishes. Makes me want to buy satellite radio just so I can listen to it. I grabbed Tiger, Adam Scott, Luke Donald, and Jim Furyk for my fantasy picks. Figured the accuracy of Furyk and Donald would be key (although hearing your weather report makes me worry about Donald's distance) and Tiger and Scott are just playing great golf.

Hoping that Scott stays hot

I used Google Earth to look at the 17th hole last night.  It is even more intimidating from the satellite view.   Does that tree ever come into play?

No, the tee box is well left of where the tree is. Unless there's some sort of gale-force wind, that would be a properly awful shot to hit it. Wait, is Nick Watney playing?

In my bag:

Wouldn't it be great to have a little blast from the past.
Tiger and Phil walking up the 18th fairway on Sunday afternoon tied for the lead...probably just wishful thinking.

Wait a minute. Could we throw Fred Couples in there too?

Horschel winning a playoff against Phil and especially Tiger. You will get crazy odds on that

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
