2014 Shriners Hospitals for Childern Open

Recommended Posts

This week on tour, the PGA visits the TPC Summerlin in Vegas, baby!  They are doing things a bit different, I guess they have to compete with football.  They have installed 6 pools around the 16th, 17th and 18th greens.

I certainly hope it is restricted on who can enter these pools.  It would kill golf for them to televise my doppelganger in a Speedo sipping a chilled adult beverage on Sunday. :blush:

 

Webb Simpson is the defending Champ, and Billy Horschel has a chance to prove he is still hot after his last two wins, but it is my hope that Sam Saunders does well this week.  He has some huge shoes to fill.

 

Any thoughts about the PGA this week, or do you care?

Can't wait to see what kind of crowd shots they get.  I'll DVR it and watch between NFL games.  I think I liked it better when guys played the Fall Series to keep their cards (more pressure), but I'm sure they get better fields this way.

What's in the bag:

I am happy that Barbajo is on assignment in Ft Worth at the Oven.  My second biggest fear was him searching for fish in the pool.  All that hair would definitely cause filter issues.

Great idea to boost the fun factor and help nudge ticket sales -- Bikinis and birdies.   Where is Amanda Dufner when you need her?   Jason can stay home and recuperate.

I like watching Dufner play golf, but would prefer Amanda in a bikini.  I am anxious to see Dufner on his return.  He said he was going to get in better shape and I am interested in how that works out for him.
