2015-16 PGA Tour Season

[Tank]

met fuzzy at the '95 PGA. fun guy. what a great story you have to tell.

[Homebrewer]

Good field at Riviera this week. Counting on Rory to come through for me. I need a win.

Sorry, xboom, I haven't. I'd highly recommend going to as many practice rounds as you can. I went to the 95 PGA and the practice rounds were a lot of fun. Players are very approachable, also.

 

Thanks Tank. I do have the one practice round on Wednesday. I'm going to use that opportunity to nail down a spot on the course where I can see the most action. Thinking about following a group in the morning rounds on the weekend and picking a location in the afternoon to watch the field play through in the afternoon rounds.

that's a great plan. walking the course reveals so much that you don't really see on tv, plus it'll help you find some terrific places from which to watch a good deal of action.

 

one of my favorite hang outs at riviera was behind the 10th green. art spander, who was a very good columnist for the SF chronicle, was there telling stories to one of the volunteers and i got to eavesdrop on him. that was terrific.

I would hang out there as well. Actually I was behind the 11th tee and 10th green so I could see all of the 10th hole as well as see everyone tee off on 11. Amazing how many drives were right down the middle on 11. I would have hit trees on both sides of that fairway.

[Tank]

ha, me too! those narrow funnels don't suit my game very well. number 18 at augusta would just kill me.

[Homebrewer]

I used to sit right here at the computer and birdie #18 at Augusta every time.

This is interesting.  Nick Faldo gives some exercise advise for golfers.

Bubba is a serious golfer. As goofy and unlikable as he can be at times, he has mad game and some pretty solid stones. 

[Tank]

bubba is pure fun to watch. he plays like one of us, except with talent, and you can't argue with his results. 

 

i love that he has never had a lesson. that's pretty darn impressive.

[Homebrewer]

Bubba Watson was a winner on Sunday at Riviera, but the prior Monday, he definitely didn't feel that way.

That's because he was passing a kidney stone.

Sergio holed out from 148 yards for eagle on the second hole today.

[Homebrewer]

Sergio loves Florida...I almost included him in my fantasy lineup this week, but went with George McNiell (who?) because he loves Fla too..and he fired a 67 today!

[Tank]

looking forward to seeing sergio shoot 76 on sunday.

 

 

 

again.

[Homebrewer]

Probably...this is one tough track.

[Tank]

jason bohn suffered a mild heart attack after his round today. being kept overnight for more tests and observation.

[fan_since79]

They're now calling it a major heart attack. One of his coronary arteries was 99% blocked.

[fan_since79]

Wow, Sergio's game has completely deserted him on these final three holes.

Just save this post for any time Sergio is in contention on a Sunday

[fan_since79]

And then he makes a nice birdie putt on 18 to lose by one stroke.

 

Sergio...

[Tank]

they were saying on the broadcast that his last win was at colonial back in '11 or '13. hasn't been able to close the deal for a while now. gotta be pretty worried if you're him.

 

he also had the talent to win a couple of majors by now. that boat seems to have sailed as he closes in on 40 yrs old.

[Homebrewer]

At lest he doesn't take a 1/2-3/4 hour per 9 re-gripping any more.

[fan_since79]

Charley Hoffman has five birdies in the first six holes at the Cadillac.

[Homebrewer]

Watching that this morning for a while myself
