May 18, 20214 yr Hardest golf course I’ve ever played. Put up a smooth 106 when I was about a 10 handicap.

Course was wet and 2nd place was -5. No rain in the forecast so will be playing fast. Seems like the layout and the wind neutralizes the bombers, making it a second shot course with several mid to long iron approaches. Maybe Jordan can complete his career grand slam.

It’s an Open Championship course designed by a sadist. Whatever flaw you have will be exposed. The wind seems to be constantly working against you even though that’s not really possible. An absolute beating. The only saving grace from that day was driving back to Charleston and having dinner at Husk.
May 19, 20214 yr As a reference point for what a mean, miserable bitch of a golf course this is, 2 days prior to breaking triple figures I shot an 83 at the Country Club of Charleston, which is a Seth Raynor course that hosted the US Women’s Open a few years ago.

I didn't realize the layout was as long as it is.

It’s a big course. We played one set of tees up from the tips, and it was still long. It will be a shame if there’s not much wind, I enjoy watching the pros suffer every now and then.
May 19, 20214 yr when i think of Kiawah and what it can do to a golfer, i think of Calcavecchia. thank god we won that Ryder Cup for Calc's sake.
May 20, 20214 yr Tickets for this week. Most of them just for fun. 2 I like though are Xander and Finau. Also have $10 on JT off screen. I don't expect any of them to win, but for some of those guys, I think "if they win I didn't want to not have a ticket". Like Rory, Spieth, Bryson. (Whats dumb is I hbet all of this within a few mins but the ones I had to do live Rory was already up to +1200)

May 20, 20214 yr Koepka looks fat. He also might be the most terrifying guy on the course if he's chasing. Him, Spieth, Rory. Even JT into that group probably. Edited May 20, 20214 yr by ztejas

May 20, 20214 yr Spieth has had two shots barely trickle off of greens only to end up 30 to 40 feet further away from the holes due to the steep runoffs... WOW Edited May 20, 20214 yr by LTtxfan

May 21, 20214 yr Was the wind blowing? See upthread for what I shot when I played it. The sea was angry that day.I know it was a factor, but it wasn’t terrible. The part of the story I didn’t tell was that the day before in the same tourney I shot a 104 on the sister course.Golf.
