I'll be out at this tourney several days. Some as a volunteer. But also for the radio station.

 

I'll post pics and comments throughout the week.

 

Also fire away with any questions you may have.

 

Not many pics today. Just the range late in the day.

 

 

 

And from behind the 9th green.

Larry Mize leads the tournament at -8 after the 1st round.

 

Among many questions he was asked, does he get tired of being asked about "The Chip" as it is the 30th anniversary.

When you see Monte, tell him that blue-striped shirt is not a good look for him.  I think it cost him a few strokes today!

Chris it's phenomenal. It's absolutely one of the most exclusive clubs in the country.

 

My battery died early today for some reason and I missed some of the most spectacular holes on the course. I won't be back out there until Sunday. But I'll try and get more pics that day.

 

15 through 18 is a beast of a finish and I think it's holes 3 -5 are very remote on the course. You won't see many spectators on those holes, but if the TV coverage shows them, they are spectacular.

That's great. Do you already have a ticket? If not pm me. I have one for you.

 

If you're able to, walk and see as many holes as you can. Some of the ones I mentioned above on the front 9 are just stunning.

I saw my first Champions Tour event when they came through Sugarloaf in Atlanta.  Those old boys have some serious game and I enjoyed the heck out of it!  I highly recommend catching a Senior event if one comes anywhere near you. My next goal is to catch an LPGA event.

Looks like it will be a two horse race tomorrow between Langer and Jobe. Man, I bet Jobe is having nightmares about 17 tonight. Two days in a row he goes in the water.

 

I'll be watching Tom Byrum as well, that's who my buddy caddies for and after a disappointing 75 on Friday he's bounced back with two great rounds to get to 6 under. Too far back, but at least he's playing late in the day and with another good round will pick up some Charles Schwab points.

What a finish you got! 

 

Sorry, I didn't respond sooner, I did have tickets for Saturday through a friend, thanks for the offer though!

 

The property was beautiful Sunday! Unfortunately, we got a late start and only saw a couple of the front 9 holes, but it was a great experience anyway!  

 

Hopefully, I will get another chance to either walk the course at an event or play there some day! Although, I'll definitely need to be hitting the ball a lot straighter to have any chance a good round (for me) there.

Great win for McCarron!  I think this is the first time I have seen Langer collapse down the stretch.  Wow!

Yeah. Great and shocking finish. Glad you got out. That is one helluva tough walk. Or im just really out of shape.

 

Walked 16 holes with the Byrum/Funk pairing then headed into the media tent to watch the final groups come in, so I could keep up with all them.

 

 

Great win for McCarron! I think this is the first time I have seen Langer collapse down the stretch. Wow!

It was completely shocking. I was in the media tent when he hit that. There were probably a dozen or so in there. Just a singular loud gasp when that ball went in the water on 17. And again when he missed the 4 footer for bogey.

McCarron was great in the post round news conference. Such a great story about how his regular caddie had to leave Wed am before the Pro Am due to his father about to pass away.

 

They assigned McCarron a local caddie for the Pro Am. He told Scott before the round He could do the job all week. He said we'll see how it goes today. He had his wife planned as a backup as she has caddied for him about 7 or 8 times in the past.

 

Right before the Pro Am Corey Pavin came up to McCarron and said. Evan is the real deal. He's caddied at Riveria for the Buick many times. He's a Tour caliber caddie.

 

After the 9th hole McCarron had seen enough of him to offer him the job for the week.

 

Nice little nearly $30,000 pay day for the week. Going off the standard deal for fill in caddies. They don't usually get the full 10% a regular caddie gets.

 

Talked to him a bit after. He said it certainly beats the normal $200 tip he gets. I said. Its probably also a lot more enjoyable carrying for a guy shooting 66 vs 106. Ha

 

He smiled and said "maybe a little bit. Scott is by far the best player I've caddied for"

A few more pix.

 

 

 

Langer after the final round. Was utterly disappointed. But a true professional and very classy in a hard defeat. Completely admitted a very bad swing on 17 followed by a horrible putt.

Said the putt on 18 that would have forced a playoff but spun out was hit perfectly.

 

 

This is taken from near the 9th fairway. You see the par 5 16th in the foreground and the pivotal par 3 17th in the distance.

 

 

 

 

My battery died again before Jobe and McCaron came in for their interviews.

This is the par 3 3rd. Just a stunning view. It was playing 187 yards to a back left pin. All be it down hill.

 

I would have been thrilled to hit a hybrid and be anywhere on the green. These guys were all hitting 7 irons for the most part and firing at the pin.

Yes, it looks like a perfect hybrid for me.  The problem is I usually don't hit a perfect hybrid.   :blush:

LOL...That's something I  can certainly relate to as well.   I said it before, but just watching the consistnecy these guys hit it with is something.

 

It's not too original but I came up with a tag line the PGA Tour Champions Tour should use.

 

These guys are STILL Good!
