Spent yesterday at Chambers Bay. What a fantastic course, just stunning to behold and looks like so much fun to play. I will have to play it in a season or two when I'm ready. I have to say that there

Well, it's been ages since I posted here, former writer at TST. I spent the Tuesday practice round and Thursday at Chambers Bay. It is expansive. Beautiful views of the sound and a golf course that lo

Gary Player calls Chambers Bay one of the worst golf courses he's ever seen. Ouch.

Lucky for us, Gary Player has never been the type of person to engage in hyperbole.

I'm looking at the scorecard. They say with my driving distance I should play the white tees 6000 yds. That's rated 76.2/137 for women. I think I'd shoot about a 140.

He's in no condition to run - might have a heart attack even at his age. He looks as soft the Pillsbury Doughboy.

Looks like Lefty and Bones are having their typical back and forth about yardages and clubs........how I'd love to hear Phil throw out something like "I don't know what the **** to hit, Bones.....this goat farm they call a golf course -----gimmie a ****ing shovel".

My mom on Chambers Bay: "Why does it look so shitty, and ugly there? Not like the Masters, that was gorgeous". So that settles it.

I have to admit, it does look ugly.

I think it looks amazing!

He also said that the watering for a course of 7800yds is so much! 1) Has he looked at the TV yet? Does it look wet and green? 2) The PNW rains quite a bit during the winter, so its not being watered then.  and 3) its fescue grass which doesn't need a lot of water to begin with.  So, really, what course is he looking at?

He may be leading, but HE'S WEARING THE SAME DAMN CLOTHES AS YESTERDAY.

And since he's not yet in the Top 5, he probably couldn't afford two shirts of the same color.

Someday, though, for his sake, I hope he hits it big. ;)

I'm with @phillyk ... I love the look of this place and now want to play there someday!

      2026 Masters

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html

      Playing Arrowhead Colorado for the First Time

      By MentalityJohn · Posted

      I am playing Arrowhead for the first time and I am pumped.  What are some things that I need to make sure and appreciate, for those that have played it before and love it? It has been a pretty dry winter so I am expecting rough to be forgiving which is nice and it will be playing much easier than it does in the late summer (I am assuming based on other colorado courses).  What should I make sure to not miss?
