Number 8 looks brutal 276 yard par 3. With just two par 5's and very long par 3's I don't think they are going to have the easy walk around Cherry Hills others do.

Sergio choked on 17, poor guy can't seem to keep his head in it on Sunday when he's contending. He chose to lay up to avoid hitting the ball into the water and left himself 85 yards to the flag

Everyone is just absolutely CRUSHING the ball so far. The driving average on the first couple holes for everyone has to be over 320. Something about that high altitude mumbo jumbo, I wasn't really paying attention.

Someone might shoot 59.

It would be interesting to see a summary of what club the pros are using there

Players play, tough players win!

My guess is everything from 3w to long irons. They don't all have Rory's length. I heard the guys calling it say they were hitting 6-7i on the 199 yard par 3 on the front and that the longer guys may use an 8. They seem kind of puzzled at times, I see shots landing short.

I'm curious, how do most instructors feel about the stall in between the backswing and downswing that a few players have. Chris Kirk and Hideki Matsuyama for example.

Webb +3. Mahan +5. Reed +6. Meanwhile, McIlroy, Kaymer and Rose are rolling. And people wonder why we are such big underdogs at the end of the month.

.... Well at least KJ Choi is playing well, amirite??!

Cherry Hills didn't give up much. The golf gaggle guys dang near equated it to a putt putt contest a day ago. Greens and roughl ooked brutal. Pooring rain tonight so could be different.

Anybody else dissapointed yesterday when they turned on the tournament and saw a standard east of the Mississippi looking park layout?? I'm well aware not all of CO is dramatic mountain vistas but I figured if they were going to move the tournament out there, then it was going to be for a beautiful mountain course. Of all the great courses in that state, seems like they could have chosen a better and more scenic course than one in the south suburbs of Denver.

No. But I've seen Cherry Hills before.

      Future Pro: Miles Russell Age 15

      By iacas ·

      Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things? TIGER WOODS' AMATEUR VICTORIES YEAR WIN(S) 1984 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1985 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1988 Boy's 11-12 Junior World Golf Championships   1989 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships   1990 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships, Insurance Youth Golf Classic   1991 U.S. Junior Amateur, Boys 15–17 Junior World Golf Championships, Orange Bowl International Junior Look at some other AJGA Players of the Year. How many of these names do you recognize? A few, for sure. I assure y'all, I'm not trying to pee in your Cheerios. I just don't get what the point is. Okay. I get that, then. Thanks.

      Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs.

      Just stumbled onto the article.  Totally random and thought it might be interested to hear other thoughts. maybe I am tired of all the LIV crap and  this just caught my attention.

      Day 1: Spent some time hitting some balls. Working on my hips and a “soft” and straight trail arm.

      Slight digression on the way to my point. Back in the day there were a lot of people who said that Tiger won because of “the Tiger effect” where people pushed too hard and made mistakes trying to catch him and fell by the wayside. I thought that was BS. It was just that he was that much better than them. I don’t think anything has changed my mind on that.    The hype about Miles Russell is very limited. I’ve seen nothing about him outside of some fairly hardcore golf websites. But I think that the reason those people are talking about him is because he is very good. Same as Tiger. And like I said he just broke one of Tiger’s records. That gets hardcore golf fans to pay attention.
