The Golf Thread

KF Tour player Nick Hardy was quoted in our local news yesterday: “I’ve got some ideas. I’m actually going to head to Indiana to play a few times next week.”  If he can be that open about circumventing the Illinois shelter-in-place order, I don't feel too bad about going there to play sometime soon as well.

Shot 82 today. My 8th straight day of playing. Looking forward to keeping the streak going tomorrow 

Holy crap!  Nice round and even more impressive streak of 8 days playing!  I wish I could play. 

Thanks! Yesterday was my 10th consecutive day playing. Looking like weather might put my streak to a stop. Plus my body could use the rest. I walk when I play. No carts. 

It is so depressing, isn't it?

I am enjoying the old replays though. 05 last night. That chip on 16....just perfect. Even the wife was impressed watching that last night. Thing of beauty!

2019 final round of Masters is on CBS right now. 

Molanari about to be on 12! This is when it gets real

This is fun to watch.  Too bad Tiger isn’t commenting the entire round.  That would be fun.

I liked how they did it. The whole round would've been a bit of overkill. 

Yeah that was fun yesterday. Hard to believe this shit's been going on for a month now.

For sure.  I didn't realize they were going to keep checking in with him.

This is nuts.  I just want to golf.  Small concern compared to others but damnit I want to golf.

At this point we‘be missed or are missing golf, March Madness, the start of baseball and the NBA playoffs among others.

Looks like the PGA Tour will resume June 11 with the Charles Schwab tournament.  No spectators.  I'll take it.  Better than nothing.

It's good that they have a plan in place and I hope it can happen but even without fans, there are so many people involved with putting on a golf tournament.  Hard to see it happening right now but who the hell knows.  Things were somewhat normal 6 weeks ago and look where we are now....things can change quickly.

Yeah, I have a tough time seeing this. The travel involved for so many people and like you say, just the people involved with putting it on, I have a tough time seeing someone not getting it then where are we?

Who knows...maybe we are getting there but I have no trust in anything the government says.  They want to reopen but there is literally no plan on testing or how to do so.

I knew it..Greenbriar taken off schedule indefinitely..moving it to fall was a killer..and now the virus has finished it off,,shame.

That sucks.  I like the course and the tournament.  Didn't love a par 3 as a finishing hole, but it did at some excitement if the leader board was bunched up.
