May 16, 20232 yr PGA not pairing LIV away from top names Cam Smith with Rahm & Fitzpatrick (I that a traditional pairing - US Open, Masters and British Open champions?) DJ with Xander & Hatton Brooks with Scottie & Woodland Phil with Cantlay & Rickie ok I like this one - Reed with 2 dudes I've never heard of BDC with Day & Keegan others (non LIV) Jordan with Lowry & Viktor Rory with JT & Morikawa Scott/Homa/Matsuy I kind wish the had a Rory/Reed/Phil pairing - now that coulda been interesting; then again I kinda wish they would have bunched the money grubbers together
May 18, 20232 yr Doubt Spieth would tee it up this week if he wasn't going for the Career Gland Slam... After stem cell, laser and cold therapies, Jordan Spieth feels wrist up to PGA challenge Story by Rex Hoggard • 3h ago PITTSFORD, N.Y. – Given where he was a week ago, Jordan Spieth was cautiously upbeat following his final preparations for this week’s PGA Championship. Spieth’s status for the year’s second major had been in doubt since he withdrew from last week’s AT&T Byron Nelson with a left wrist injury. But he said Wednesday, following a nine-hole practice round, that he was pleased with the injury’s improvement. “It’s not fun if you don’t think you’ve got a chance to win,” Speith said. “[But] if I felt like I was limited in a way that would affect my chances then there’d be no reason for me to feel like playing, because then I could further damage it and that’s not worth it. “But since last Wednesday afternoon I feel like I can get into every position with the speed that I want and produce the scores that I want. I’m just a little rusty on the reps.” With his left wrist and forearm taped, Spieth played the front nine on a blustery day at Oak Hill with few limitations. “It’s more like any [shot] that I have to flick over, like a high bunker shot or a high flop shot, and you wouldn’t really have those as often as any other shot,” said Spieth, who played the back nine on Tuesday at the only major he’s never won. “I just don’t have the reps I’d like to have going into a major, but I’m happy I’m able to play because I certainly didn’t think so a week ago.” Spieth said the injury was “random” and occurred at home in Dallas and that he’s undergone a variety of treatments on his wrist, including stem cell, laser and cold therapies. He started hitting golf balls again on Saturday and his confidence grew when he didn’t feel like he’d “taken a step back” with the injury the next day. “I wouldn’t play if I didn’t think I was in good enough shape to play,” Spieth said
May 18, 20232 yr I'm so fuckin sick of shitty cold weather during majors that aren't called the British Open.

LOL - a little frost isn't even really that cold, I get delaying the start, but the weather in upstate NY this week looks great for golf. I think moving the PGA has opened up a lot of courses in Texas, Arizona, Florida, etc where it would be to hot or too much of a chance of daily thunderstorm for the old August slot they had.

I also just hate where it is on the calendar, they just jammed it in there with no thought, golf season is over in mid-July now. PGA used to be "one last chance at glory", now it's pretty generic imo.

May 18, 20232 yr not at the Masters this year. Had him in my pool. Got the #1 pick for PGA. Took Rahm. Sitting on a smooth plus 4 right now. INSERT RAGE GIF
May 18, 20232 yr I really like Oak Hill. Nice old school parkland course. Ideal conditions yet not giving up anything low. Definitely a single digit to par winner.

May 18, 20232 yr I am guessing they can play until about 9 pm tonight, but I don't know how long rounds are taking today. I am guessing that they will have a number of groups that will not get done, and therefore push back tee times for tomorrow. Maybe not, since no frost - they could get them started before 6am to get the day going, but makes it a long day for the late/early draw.

May 18, 20232 yr Just now, TonyTexas said: Maybe a little ambitious there 5:44 sunrise, 8:30 sunset not really, it is why god invented twilight - both dawn and dusk. I love to get a couple of holes in, maybe more after sunset; I have a buddy that I will call P Reed and I think he likes it even more since he can just drop a ball anywhere and say he found his drive (it is usually middle of the fairway about 30 yards further than he can hit it)
May 18, 20232 yr Author I do not wish bad things on people. Bad karma I say. But I will say that I will not be rooting for BDC win this tournament.
May 18, 20232 yr Marty Smith sucks in general but especially as a golf reporter. That redneck needs to stick to NASCAR and SEC football.

May 18, 20232 yr 21 minutes ago, LTtxfan said: What's a "parkland course" ? 🤔 Parkland course Parkland courses are built inland, away from the ocean. These courses often feature lots of trees and lush grass. If you watch the PGA Tour, you’ve probably seen plenty of parkland courses. They’re called parkland courses because they look and feel like you are playing golf in a park. It’s usually the case that parkland courses are well-manicured, and are full of man-made features like dug bunkers, ponds and built-up rough. Parkland courses are often built in places that don’t have ideal conditions for golf. This means the grass and soil are harder and more expensive to maintain. Because there isn’t as much natural land movement and undulation, much more work must be done by the course architect on parkland courses to add intrigue and excitement to the course. Arguably the most famous parkland course in the world is Augusta National.
