Love some links golf.

Very pretty, when sunny.

Unfortunately, just like Pebble, they expect rain all 4 days

It's going to be low 60's for the highs, light rain except for Saturday and the wind is 10-15mph. The course is firm and the rough is heavy, perfect if you ask me. I want Graeme McDowell to win it, maybe Rory will snap his dry spell with home cooking.

LOL, winning a celebrity tournament twice is a far cry from winning a PGA major. Guy would miss the cut by 10-20 in the wind of Ireland. Needs to first win a NTPGA event before tackling a Korn-Ferry one.

I’m pumped. Can’t wait.

GO TIGA!

Probably not but that display he put on in 2006 with his 2-iron driving at Royal Liverpool was one for the ages. 200 and something bunkers on the course and I think he found one off the tee all week...

Same here.

The rough out there is epic, deep and greasy like a MOTHA
Lots of driving irons and 3 woods off the tee, at least for the first 2 days.
Too bad for the drizzle and cold rain for 4 days.
I wished it were to be 35 mph hard side rain/wind/cold for the first 3 days followed by no wind 75 and sunny on final day.

I have no interest in seeing the winner be +4.

The winner prolly be at -9 to -12 max. The course is 300 yards longer than Pebble

Don't take the bait. Can you imagine the meltdown if Tiger wins this?

Calamity corner at 236 yards par 3 into the wind is where you will see scores ranging from 2 to 6
A ton of marbles will be gained/lost on that beast

Frank Nobilo just did a breakdown on calamity corner, don't miss right at all.

I’m fine with that. I just don’t have any interest in the weather being so brutal that the winner is +4. That’s not enjoyable to me.

Saw that...the right side is probably a double...minimum

I’d love an over par champion.

The drop zones look a tad harder then the ones we usually see on tour.

How come? And I don’t want one really, although I don’t mind hard courses that make them work for it. I just don’t want punitive courses that are impossible (like the US Open last year, which was dumb) and I don’t want terrible weather that makes it ridiculous either. I don’t mind a winner being just a few under, but I don’t want 35 mph winds and rain to make an already hard course impossible. It’s just not fun for me to watch.

Looks like an elephant sat on it.

My caddie Tony and me and my wife will have a good dinner in Scottsdale
He will leave on Saturday to caddie for Shaun Micheel on senior pga in UK

Where are you playing in Scottsdale?

I don’t really know. I just like to see a course make them look like I look out there haha.

That’s good enough reason for me.

I don’t want to see them suck just for the sake of it, but I understand. The bugger thing is, I don’t want weather to make it impossible either.
