February 12, 20223 yr Can you imagine what that place would have been like if it was that built up back when Tiger made his ace?
February 13, 20223 yr Also, this is what 16 looked like sat night. Had a concert on that hole. 1st time they’ve done it. Was pretty cool.
February 13, 20223 yr Can you imagine what that place would have been like if it was that built up back when Tiger made his ace?Golf Channel said it was a crazier atmosphere back in 1997 because the crowd was right on top of the players for the entire hole and the stadium is set back now.
February 13, 20223 yr Why are they playing threesomes today?Was wondering that myself; they had split tees and everything.

Yes and now only the stands at the very back of the green are gen admin. All the suites are all super pricey corporate setups and while the folks in there will get noisy they aren’t crazy. Back in 97 it was pretty much all gen pop.

February 13, 20223 yr Lived in Mesa for several years and used to go all the time. Loved it. Our son was there today

This thing always seems to end up and a playoff and wrap up after ko. This, they’ve been doing it for years because they don’t want to risk having to compete with the Super Bowl. Makes going as a spectator so much better on Thursday/Friday. 10 hours of boozing and watching hot drunk chicks fall over > 6 hours of boozing and watching drunk hot chicks fall over.
February 13, 20223 yr Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've always understood that the hole is a fairly basic, nondescript par-3 but they've made it most awesome with the setup. True?

True? Very true. It’s a nothing par 3 but the set up is impressive. They start the set up in October and I’ve played there a number of times after it’s fully erected. It’s fun to walk through the arch onto the tee box, even when it’s empty.

February 13, 20223 yr It’s probably harder the closer they get. Lots of nervous swings with half wedges. Lots of prayers for anything putting in that environment haha
February 13, 20223 yr Been a long time since I’ve played it but I think the green is not that easy. But yea it’s just like a 135ish yard par 3.

If there were multiple courses that allowed it it would get annoying (not that they "allow" throwing beer onto the course).
February 13, 20223 yr Just now, Mo Horn said: Scottie with back to back birdies and now tied for the lead SCOTTIE -14
February 13, 20223 yr Scottie pars #4, now one off the lead but playing great so far... Edited February 13, 20223 yr by LTtxfan Fuckin' Autocorrect
February 13, 20223 yr Damn horrible shot by Scottie on 2nd shot short iron approach for Par 4 hole #5. Bogey on #5 -- now 3 shots back for Scottie
February 13, 20223 yr Koepka all over the yard off the tee -- but it still feels like he will be in the running at the end if folks don't get more strokes ahead of him going into the back nine. Brooks has won this tournament twice before... Edited February 13, 20223 yr by LTtxfan Fuckin' Autocorrect
