Pretty much the entire field minus Rory and Tiger will be there in Connecticut.. Should be an amazing tournament like always. Can Spieth hole it out from the bunker to win? Can Lefty beat the field and not almost drill me in the head?

Just found out that I might be the Hole Captain instead of the Assistant Hole Captain on Friday. Little nervous about it but I'll manage regardless.

Anyone going?

Who's going to win?

I might go this year. I'd like to see Victor Hoveland's pro debut. I'll shoot you a PM when it's certain.

Can you buy a hole captain a beer?

Sure, you'll have to drink it.... Not allowed to drink while in uniform

tells volunteers where to go on the hole, schedules beaks/lunches for volunteers on your hole. Makes announcements to the crowd if need be etc

Played one hell of a tournament!

Friday's weather sucked however! Rain pretty much all day with it coming in sideways due to the wind. Saturday was decent weather but Sunday's weather was spectacular!

I saw more T-F coverage than I did the weekend which wasn't much.

I did catch the end, it seemed like Chez was going to coast in, but Bradley gave chase for a while to at least tighten it up until 17...the chasing finally caught up to him and it was a wrap for Reavie.

And he did just that!
Thought he was gonna choke though. His putting showed how nervous he was. His birdie on 17 was a completely different stroke because with the collapse of Bradley on 17 he knew, at a minimum, even if he missed it, he was going into 18 with a two shot lead and most likely 3 shots.
Nerves are a killer

No one did. Its funny how they call him a "short hitter" when he averages 286 off the tee. Players are hitting it so far now. I bet 25 years ago 286 would have lead the tour.

The ole sphincter was tighten up on him for sure. Bradley butchering the 17th absolutely took all the pressure off. Give him a break over water from a bunker...is was dry and playable. Not getting his 3rd shot closer was a big mistake, but 3 putting from inside 20' he handed Reavie the trophy right there.

They are all only thinking of Rory and Johnson and saying he's a short hitter... But you don't have to hit it long to to be successful

Keegan surprisingly wasn't as slow as he normally is. He only flipped his club about 3 times instead of his traditional 6 to 7. There really wasn't much media coverage on Sunday as I thought there'd be to be honest.. Which is surprising..

I wanted to go this year but I had a play on Friday, 18 holes Saturday and a concert on Sunday.

I see that Hoveland struggled on Sunday.

It sure helps though. All the guys I play with regularly hit 2 clubs longer than me. It puts a lot of pressure on my game
