Valspar


revkev

Recommended Posts

I know it's a week early but I can't help but getting in the jab that there will be twice as many players capable of winning the Masters at the Valspar as there will be at..... the Masters.

 

One of the Masters great secrets of success is limiting the field. It insures having big names in contention and in the Butler Cabin more often than not also.

 

Regardless I've got a mini buddies weekend on tap. Valspar on Friday, Golf on Saturday. I'm off Sunday next weekend as well.

They are running a bus with tix to Valspar one day during the Tournament. I waited too long to sign up and it sold out.

Actually there are 144 players in the field for valspar, and the Masters looks like there will be more than 100, so there will actually be about 1/3 more players that have a chance to win at the valspar than there will be at the masters. 😁

Prolly the best Valspar field to date. Considering this tourney didn't have a title sponsor a couple years ago, this is huge for them and the TB community. But as we've seen at Torrey, Riv, and PGA National - when T-Dubs comes out...so do the crazies. I bet Speith and Stenson rolled their eyes when they saw their pairing for Thursday and Friday haha

I'm interested to see how Sam Burns plays in this one.  He's a local kid and his coach is the same guy I go to for lessons.  I'm would love to see him get another top 10 like he did a few weeks ago.  I've seen him play a couple times around here and he's got a ton of talent.

Tiger and Jordan in the same group? What have they done? We get the announcers saying how close Tiger is, and then JS yelling at himself. Mute.

 

But it makes it easy on the TV crew, Shankster: they only need a single camera crew on the whole course :)

In seriousness, this is shaping up to be a perfect time for DeChambeau to break through and get his second win. What a field to beat if he can make it happen too.

Weather for Thursday and Friday will be cool and breezy - gusts to 25 Thursday and 20 Friday. Should be fun.

 

Plus the wind is always stronger close to the water. Ask Foz, he's left his house in Tampa thinking calm day only to be greeted by 15 mph winds coming off the Gulf at Bayou.

We'll all watch and listen, in the expectation that you'll yell, "My Golf Spy" after someone's tee shot.

I don't think he's ever played Copperhead. It is not a bombers delight but he also doesn't have to hit many drivers so it could work well. It's a course that tends to reward good iron play.

Well true to the forecast the wind came out. I played nine holes early this afternoon (walking) and it was tricky, very tricky and my course doesn't have the over-seeded rough.

 

Can't wait for tomorrow

What happened to JS? He is not in golf form right now.

Wow he's 122th at a +5. I think he need some 'mental game' practice.
