Golf 2025

[Coleman]

Not sure if anyone has been to Winter Park 9 in the Orlando area but just played it when I was down there for work. Tough little par 35 course, very tight, OB on pretty much every hole. Very difficult greens. Happy I managed a 40.

I also watched TGL for the first time last night. Fun concept and very entertaining. Love that the guys were miked up and loved the interaction with fans. Will definitely watch again

Proper golf

Can't wait to show the starter a picture of Jason Day next time I show up the golf course in sweatpants.

Dress codes on public courses are silly.
I mean, of course sloppy clothes are going to be judged.  However, I get more pissed about slow players not understanding etiquette than I do about clothing choices.

Short game show at Pebble.

12,000 people watched LIV Golf on FS1

[tower912]

That many?

[Uncle Rico]

Spieth in the mix, finishing with a Spieth par.  Be nice to see him compete again this year

Knost pointing out that the 24k spectators around the 16th hole is 12,000 X 2.

Yealimi Noh just hit the stick from  130 on 12 in Bradenton.   Bad luck.

I'm surprised it wasn't more.

Golf update from Torrey

1. No one is hitting fairways

2. Rory can't putt

3. Guys flipping wedges from ankle deep rough and getting the ball to stop.  Roll.  The.  Ball.  Back.

4. Aberg had an ace

5. Torrey is pretty but blah as a course

[Uncle Rico]

Lotta bad golf this afternoon

If the greens are soggy, you can make a Warbird dance.

Amazing how we judge Scottie now.  Only 2nd competitive outing of the year and 2 top-10's and feels disappointing somehow

[Uncle Rico]

Good to see potential Team Europe golfers racking up wins early in the season.  Hope they can continue playing well though the Ryder Cup and retain it

Sand Valley adds more golf.  What I love about new age golf design is the embrace of non-traditional design.

A 12-hole "afternoon" course on this property sounds amazing.  The 17-hole par-3 course is already one of the neatest golf experiences you can have.  Adding this to The Lido, Sand Valley, Sedge Valley and Mammoth Dunes just enhances what is a top-5 golf destination.

It's just too bad the waiting list is 2-years now to get reservations.  Ah, well, Bandon will have to do in '26

Keegan Bradley could mess around and play his way onto the team.   He says he would recuse himself as captain in that circumstance.  Now THAT could create some buzz.
