His tweet is awsome hopefully it puts a little pressure on these events to consider cost analysis.

Middler Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 The PGA tournament is not one of my favs but it has shaped up well so far, tough but good play has been rewarded so far. There was obviously something very different about the sand traps at SH, but it appears they are adjusting after some surprisingly bad bunker play on Thur - looked like me being surprised in a trap finding out there's almost no sand under my ball, after I've tried to explode out. Will it be Zalatoris, Thomas, Watson, McIlroy - or someone else? I'd be happy for any of them.

steveone Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 It's a MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIP. PGAs tended to be the weak link in the Slam rotation. With the Ocean course last year and Southern Hills this year - there's some teeth. Not the 25 under birdie fests most weeks. There are scores out there, I shocked that many of the favorites who seemed to be in form [and my picks - dammit] aren't grinding it out. Sorry about Tiger. Another couple of months rehab and a dead flat Old Course and we'll get a better idea if he can compete again. Weather has been sucky for him too - welcome to the 'old guy' world.

Say's the player in a heated battle not to win last place . Umm, newsflash Patton, the conditions are the same for everyone your playing against... quit whining. Anyone else notice that is rarely (like never) players at the top of the leaderboard making these cry me a river statements? IMO Southern Hills is playing like a PGA Tour course should. These guys games are at stratosphere levels of capability - so it seems totally appropriate the course difficulty (adverse weather conditions aside) occupy the same rarified air.

I’ve never liked the PGA because it was a birdie fest in many years past. That’s completely fine for some regular schedule tournaments, it’s fun to see them tear a course up occasionally, but majors should be a sterner test IMO. Kiawah and SH are a good trend for the PGA again just my opinion.

Not much in Spokane Valley other than the Spokane River which is currently closed during Rainbow spawning season. It fishes best (most consistently) in fall but does have some prolific caddis hatches a good fishing immediately upon season opening. I've only fished it a couple of times to/from other much less urban waters.
