Shriners Open & Women’s PGA Championship

He’ll be killing people out there.

It will be interesting to see whether some new tall trees appear prior to the tournament to block some of those driving lanes.

Spieth said they have a huge tree farm ready and waiting to transfer over when they want to alter a hole. I’m thinking that will happen for 2021 after what we see from him :joy:

Saw that too. He was talking about #9 where he’ll clear the trees on the left and right so has way more than 90 yards of fairway.

But still being out driven by Cam Champ!

One of the few positives of the pandemic and strange season is that it feels like the fields are deeper for PGA tournaments this year…better viewing.

Why would the Green Jackets wait until 2021 to Bryson proof the course?

Not enough time. The new Bryson is only six months old.

I don’t know, They have all the money in the world. How long does it take to plant a few trees.

I’m sure it’s pretty political to plant trees to stop one guy. The members might not be ok with it. :man_shrugging:t4:

They completely changed the course for one guy before :tiger2:

You make a valid point. However, I will argue the fact that they didn’t do it over night (i.e. in six months).

at this point I’m not sure there’s too much more they can do with land (the Tiger changes were pretty big). But they could put a bunch of taller trees in the landing areas that Bryson can challenge. I guess we’ll have to wait and see, but it seems like a big fight is brewing.

I think it’s actually about a 500 yard wide fairway for him! To clear the trees on left side is 320 and 340 to clear right trees! (sorry for crude drawing of the hole, just wanted to call it out if anyone couldn’t find #9

Holy crap!!! Matt Wolfe with the bogey free -10 under round. Not one, not two, but three eagles on the back 9 for a -8 back 9. :flushed::boom::fire:

He’s amazing! I wish I could stand to watch his swing.

The Women’s PGA was a very good watch. The round Kim played on Sunday ranks right up there with any final round of a major on any tour.

As far as the Shriners, I took a hard pass on that one. Wake me up in November to watch the PGA Tour. Not a major? No thank you.

I was almost afraid to watch the video.

Brooke Henderson played some great golf on Saturday. Love watching those ladies swing the club. It’s a real testament to the equipment mixed with proper technique doing the work. They swing so smooth and effortlessly. It’s a thing of beauty.
