    Can't wait for the PGA Championship @ Kiawah - what a tough track...
    I'll be amazed if under par wins this thing - especially if the wind plays a factor...
    I had the opportunity to play this course a few years back and it ate my lunch for sure. 25-30 mph headwinds, greens were faster than any I had ever putted on before in my life. The caddy said most people, being honest, cannot break 100 with a mulligan a side.
    Anyone remember the "War on the Shore" in 91? What a Ryder Cup - that final day the winds off the ocean blew hard and the best pros in all of the world looked like hacks...
    Cannot wait -
    GO TIGER!!!

    Talk about some awful planning by the PGA making the PGA Championship the same weekend as the Olympics. I know all these events are planned years in advance so there had to have been a way to avoid this. I'll still watch what I can, but I'd much rather watch olympics.

    Tiger is currently in the clubhouse at -3 - the leader is currently Joost Luiten and he is thru 14 and is an amazing -8. Rory is at -5...Big John stayed at -4. Winds are up now...
    Some big #'s out there...the early guys got a terrific advantage with literally NO wind at all - supposed to howl this afternoon and the next few days...

    They have always used the "sandy area" local rule for all major golf events at The Ocean Course.
    Including the1991 Ryder Cup.
    "They don't give a shit Keith Moon is dead,
    is that exactly what I thought I read."

    25-30 mph crosswinds today
    chance of rain @ 1pm ET
    the first page of the scoreboard (@noon ET) has nothing but tee times next to it :D (w/ the exception of Vijay - he's 2 under so far today, 3 under for the tourney thru 12)
    A little of that "elemental nasty" British Open weather today - I cannot wait for the Marquee Group @ 1:40
    Tiger just hopped out of his car, with spikes on :lol: They say he doesn't even keep a locker at these things
    GO TIGER!!!
