Shankster Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 After a blustery week at the TOC, we are on to week 2 of the Hawaiian Swing. Personally some of my favorite views on the TV. Some day I’ll get to the Islands... some day. Might even order me one of those Pineapple FJ hats... I’m going with a sleeper I think for this week... drum roll.... Sneds.

sixcat Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Webb Simpson plays traditional old-school layouts exceedingly well and is trending toward a win with all the top 10's he's had recently.

I played with a young guy on Monday who plays for St. Ambrose University (out visiting his parents during winter break). About the same stature as Joaquin and could really bomb the ball. I kept up with him for about the first 5 holes...
