No! The tweet just said they won. I'm not reading anything into it. Just that they won. Sorry for the confusion.  Good to see Vince/Hunter bounce back!

2 more points left to be decided today. Match 3 on the back 9 somewhere. East up by 3.  So the lead will be as low as 1, as high as 5 upon completion.

Congrats to Michael, who was a part of 5 of the West's 8.5 points, thanks to a strong West finish in Match 3 in the afternoon.

Everyone on the East took part in either 3.0 or 3.5. That's some balance for you.

Thank you. Not bad for a guy who arrived at 3:30am last night. Maybe I should play more often on 2 hours sleep.

What a great day, 36 holes at Moon Valley.

Morning round was great fun, Kyle & I playing Dave and V.

On the 6th hole, I knock one stogie for a kick-bird and just I was beginning to like my new buddy V, he goes and rolls a twenty footer to save a halve on the hole.

Dave was a stud today, played very well.

But, the shot of the day was made by Kyle on the 17th tee.

Google Moon Valley and view this dogleg right hole design.

It's ridicules from the back tee. Requires a big banana ball around a huge tree which blocks the entire fairway.

Anyway, Kyle decides to play a severe hook, though the neighborhood.

He plays this shot which had to carry eleven roof tops and hook 150 yards back to the golf course.

I told that ball had to fly over LA to clear all of those homes.

Played the afternoon round with Colin and things went well for the Big Red Team.

Colin can flat move the tee ball.......

Great swing, fun to watch.

Also, for those who don't know, Matt can hit the ball to the Moon !!!

My new buddy V made amends...

Only took a few pics today, hoping for clear skies tomorrow.

    • Got my schedule mostly figured out.  I'm in for both days.
    • I played a round at the course I am trying to get par on every hole, on Thursday. On a par 5 I have yet to par, dog leg left with a cart path and tree's on the left at the bend and a sand trap right in the middle of the fairway at the bend where you're most likely to hit the ball. I managed to get great contact with the ball off the tee, knocked it well over the tree's/cart path and into the fairway leaving me with around 200 yards to the green on my second shot. 3w shot landed the second shot just outside the green about 80 yards to the pin. 3rd shot landed the ball about 10 feet from the pin on the green. Now putting for birdie, I miss the edge of the hole by about half an inch and the ball rolls past 2 feet. Now putting for par, I putt nice and soft and the ball lips out hahaha. Bogey   
    • I think Scottie isn't as enjoyable to watch play golf is because he doesn't have the "flashy" game. He doesn't take on more than he can handle. His misses are always way less most other golfers. He's just the ultimate steady golfer, but his floor is like stupidly high.  Let's say Scottie was in Rory's position on Hole 15 on Sunday at Augusta this year. Is Scottie even attempting that sweeping draw around the tree? I don't, I think Scottie blasts it into the bunker right of the green and tries to get up and down.  Rory is more fun to watch because of the highs and lows to his game. It's like, ah man he can crash and burn here or hit it to like an amazing shot.  Tiger, we just didn't know what we had in the moment. His floor was so high that we were just like, this is awesome. Then he hit an amazing shot and it left us speechless.  As for Rahm, I get why people have issue with him. I like his game. I like his attitude on the course. The passion is 100% and I a respect that even if he gets hot headed. I rather have human beings on the course playing golf, and that means they are fallible.  I appreciate Scotties' game a lot. If you sit back and just think about how he plays it's really impressive. 
    • Played a round yesterday, went up and down from greenside on a Par 5 and dropped a 40-ft putt from off the green on a Par 4.
