But in the end it's still a game of golf, and if at the end of the day you can't shake hands with your opponents and still be friends, then you've missed the point. ~Payne Stewart

Hope big Phil can win the FBR, would also like to see Steve Stricker do well but after a fairly disappointing 1 over 72 yesterday, he is going to have to perform better today to even make the cut for the weekend!

I used to live in Phoenix...why I moved to Chicago is another story...

But the FBR is the coolest event on Tour. Now you have to go in understanding that there are a lot of people there to just "party" and "to be seen". So once you get past that, the course really allows you to see a lot of holes and follow some great players. Tickets are always in abundance and I always buy tickets in the parking lot for "UNDER" face value. I just wait until someone is willing to sell at a discount...they probably got a ton from their work or something. The 16th hole is definitely a great "unique" atmosphere to watch a par 3. You have to see it to believe it. Hope you get to go one day.

Good job to J.B Holmes. That was a very exciting playoff. I woulda loved to see phil win it though. His approach shot really screwed him over.

I predict Tiger will beat the #5 player in the world down the stretch in Dubai and Phil will lose the FBR in a play-off to someone ranked outside the top 190.

Pay no attention to the time stamp.

      Question About UK vs. U.S. Course Etiquette

      By RickK · Posted

      The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO

      Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues.

      Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management.

      Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
