Here are some pictures and video from the WGC today... Haotong Li Rickie Fowler (sorry for the wonky speed on the slow-mo. I forgot to edit where the slow-mo tapers off)

One of my favorite tournaments of the year, one of my favorite courses they play each year.  That duel in 2009 was amazing to watch.

I am hoping for top 3 finish for Tiger.  But his consistency has been iffy.  Seems like he takes two steps forward then takes a step back.  Ugh!

At least he's going in the right direction.

Well, let's see. The man is 42 years old, has had multiple back surgeries, and hasn't played pro level competitive golf in about 3 years! Plus, his personal life has been a mess, and he flushed his marriage down the toilet!

For all that, I don't think he's doing too badly.

Also, a friend called me today to set up a golf date for tomorrow. Said he checked the website to get grounds passes for the Bridgestone. You could get them for $45 per before Tiger qualified. They are now $145!

I thought I heard this morning that they're considering moving the course from Firestone and this may be the last year at that course? :-(

Tragic.  Such a nice course.  Was it a sponsorship thing or they're just tired of using the same course over and over or something else?

Already decided, yeah. That's one reason Tiger really wanted to play there. Having won there eight times, this will be his last chance at that course.

Quote

The move was announced today at a news conference Thursday morning at Firestone by PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan, who also announced that the Bridgestone Senior Players tournament will be held at Firestone in 2019 from July 8-14. That contract is through 2022.

The reason for the change is simple.

"You've got to have a sponsor," Monahan said. "Bridgestone's strategy was changing and involving. Once we realized continuation with the WGC wasn't going to happen, we worked hard and they really worked hard as a great partner did and does to try and do everything they could to keep professional golf here again in Northeast Ohio."

Tiger has just teed off and is live on PGA Tour Live for those in a country with rights (USA?). The WGC events are unfortunately limited as far as PGA Tour Live in other countries go.
