Tournament starts on the 6th. I'm flying out of LA on the 1st, when I finally land in Bangkok it'll be the 3rd. 30 hours of travel over the date line. Practice rounds on the 4th and 5th. Not too worried about weather. I'm a southern California native, heat and I are a perfect match!

From a Hua Hin info website: "The average daily temperature in Hua Hin, Cha-Am and Pranburi is remarkably consistent throughout the year. It varies from a low of 25.6° Celsius (77°f) in January to a high of 29.9° (84°f) in April and May. There is a much greater variation in the amount of rain. The average is 4.1mm in January and slightly over 200mm in October and November. Generally speaking, the best time of the year to visit is December through February when temperatures are relatively low and only occasional rain showers occur."

Good luck and play solid Ben! When you stand over every shot or putt, just say to yourself...this is going to be the greatest shot I've ever hit...I hope the cameras are rolling tape!

[Ben]

best of luck... we'll be watching and hoping.

Looks like some low scores to be had at this place. I'm thinking even to 2 under will be the number here. I can't see it being any lower...

[Big_M]

Your time has to be about 12hrs difference... so I'm guessing you're getting ready right now. Good luck in round 4... hope to be getting updates from Stage 2 in the comming days.

[Ben]
