TST is at the 2015 Shriners Hospitals for Children Open at TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas. The par-71 will measure 7,255 yards for the event. 

Headlining the field this week is Rickie Fowler, who’s ranked No. 5 in the Official World Golf Rankings, Jimmy Walker (No. 17) and last week’s winner Emiliano Grillo, who’s coming off his first ever PGA Tour victory. Other notables playing this week include Ollie Schniederjans, Brooks Koepka, Keegan Bradley and Brandt Snedeker.

Last year, Ben Martin finished with two birdies and an eagle in the closing four holes to beat runner-up Kevin Streelman by two strokes. The clutch play down the stretch helped Martin notch his first PGA Tour win.

Some swing videos from today. Not all of them, will be spacing them out throughout the next several days.

Fantastic stuff.  A couple of things that stood out to me:

  • There seem to be a lot of guys going down to the wire with their broomsticks.  I saw 4 or 5 in the WITB pics.  Maybe those guys are planning on going the long putter un-anchored route.
  • I like Davis Love's USA bag, although not sure where it's from?
  • My favorite part:  A PGA TOUR player playing G30 "shovels"!!!!!!!!!!!!  I love it.  When we toured Ping, they had me hit the G30s and I loved them!  Even more than the new i-series clubs.  Obviously, even some (one, at least) really good players feel the same way.

Tiger 2000-esque right here.

I think it's from the 2013 Ryder Cup.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

TPC Summerlin is in my old backyard growing up.  Our house (my parents) is in The Lakes close to Canyon Gate which also has a golf course.  I remember when we bought our home there, we were the last house to the mountains and when I was a kid I loved model rockets.  Could walk out back and launch those without a care in the world.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
