Oso planning to go pro
Who wants a soft US Open?
Hoo wants a soft anythin', hey?
I'll be rooting for Joel Dahman. I guess he is one of the most popular guys on tour and anybody that beats testicular cancer is worth cheering for.

Really excited for Nick Hardy. He grew up across the street from us and is a really solid young man. This is his first year on the big tour and he’s been hampered by injuries - but he’s 3 under through 36 at the US freakin’ Open! Go Nick!!
Rory and Morikowa are my favorites . Dahmen is such an interesting guy it would be fun if he could hang in there today. If the wind kicks up maybe JT can get back in the mix
I caught only a small part of the interview but Craig Stadler said something that might not be a bad idea. He thinks the PGA tour could and should add a 5th major. He suggested the Tour Championship. The LPGA has 5 majors and I think the Champions tour does as well. I'm just curious how this would impact guys bolting for the Saudi league, it may give them second thoughts. Stadler also said that he loves the PGA Championship in May because when it was in August it was a "huge disadvantage to heavy players". He said he'd rather have a major in Michigan in December.
The May PGA effectively eliminates the upper Midwest. Hazeltine, Whistling Straits, Oakland Hills... courses just aren't going to be ready.
Haven’t they tried stuff similar in the past? Like the World Golf Championships? You can’t just simply label something a major and expect the public to follow along.
Next year PGA at Oak Hills in Rochester NY upstate so they are figuring out how to play it in these climates
I think they’ve tried to make the FedEx Playoffs like that. Even making large dollar amounts for the champion. I think it still pales in comparison to what the LIV guys are making.The only way I see them regretting their decision is if they get banned from all non-LIV events. Even then, I’m not sure they are going to regret it that much.
I don't know if they could pull off a major but I'd really like to see the Canadian Open at Cabot Cliffs.
Will anyone shoot better than E today?
