April 10, 20232 yr Author I can't really get into the next couple of events - RBC, Zurich (partner/buddy event), Mexico Open. Not elevated status, coming off a fairly boring last day in Augusta, with little to no drama, Brooks never put pressure on Rahm, Phil (& Jordan) didn't get much screen time and by the time they got low they had run out of holes. Just one of the least interesting Masters I can remember, no fireworks, only 1 lead change and that was fairly early, no huge numbers, no eagles of significance....too much announcers blathering on. I'll catch back up when they play Wells Fargo for $20 mil purse then Byron to warm up and off to Oak Hill for the PGA
April 10, 20232 yr RBC is elevated. 27 of top 30 will be there I believe. Rory did withdraw today, which is a bit worrisome.

I like him WDing better than playing. He needs it.
April 11, 20232 yr Would agree but he’s already skipped his designated event for the year. He’s probably just mentally fried.

Don't know how I missed that, but IMO it is pretty shitty from a players perspective - having to play the week after a major. That has traditionally been a week many players would take a down week, but I know the Tour is trying to reengineer the schedule and coerce everyone to play in elevated events.

I get he's supposed to be the role model for the PGA or whatever but he doesn't need more tour wins or money. I think he's earned the right to be a bit more selfish when it comes to chasing his remaining career goals. 1 hour ago, Wally Fairway said: Don't know how I missed that, but IMO it is pretty shitty from a players perspective - having to play the week after a major.

Probably why no one played in SA. Idk. Idk what the Tour or LIV is doing. It seems like everything is just getting overcomplicated.

April 12, 20232 yr Musil’s tweet is a bit misleading. The tournament is definitely moving to the spring but not as a designated event. That might be down the road, but it’s a long road. Edited April 12, 20232 yr by TonyTexas

April 14, 20232 yr Another nice showing by horns two days into the RBC Heritage: Scotty at -9 (T-2nd), Spieth -7 (T-10th), Ghim -6 (T-18th) and Hossler -5 (T-23rd).

April 15, 20232 yr Rougher weather for Sunday... gonna go out in 3's, so Spieth is in the final group with Cantlay and Fitzpatrick. Not sure that's a good pairing for Spieth. Scottie ends up -11 Spieth -12

April 16, 20232 yr Enjoying having Rahm do some analysis here. Funny he’s having to commentate on Cantlay’s slow play.
