Course closed Monday

Due to more than 9 inches of rainfall in the last 72 hours, TPC Sawgrass will be closed to the public Monday, May 6.

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.

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?

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, tiger and phil in a playoff sunday.

Tiger in the water, Horschel birdies, Phil misses the putt.

Hows that for a prediction. HA!

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

    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death. 
    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
