Good tournament so far
I think Poulter is going to have a great year. He’s way over due. I also heard today that next weeks tournament in Scottsdale is a Sold Out. Who says attendance is down this year. Golf is alive and doing quite well.
"pain is only weakness leaving the body"
Just an observation Jumpn
but Scottsdale is always very well attended every year. I do agree golf is alive and well (always will be), but there’s no escaping Tiger’s impact on the sport.
Roll Tide !!
who said anything about tiger sheesh
Honestly I’m getting tired of discussing that topic
"pain is only weakness leaving the body"
Jumpn
to me it was rather clear you were referring to all of the talk about how Tiger being absent is leading to lower ratings etc for the tour. The “fringe fan thing” is something you comment on very often. If I was wrong, you have my full apology.
Roll Tide !!
Yes I do
As half or so of the post we have to choose from to comment on are about just that. Just not this one. I’m hoping that now that the dust has settled we all get move forward and discuss this seasons " GOLF" tounaments.

As I said I had heard
After checking the “Ticket Master” site that you posted, you are correct. The general admission tickets for 25.00 are for wed-fri only , plus a ticketmaster fee, are available. Most ticket re-sell sights do buy up quite a few in advance for all sporting events. It’s great to see so many "Golf Fans’ supporting the tour.

I wish I could warm to Poulter
but I just can’t. (Met too many vain macho types like him). Looks like he’s going to win so good luck to him. Rooting for Casey now that he’s taken out my lovely Stewart.
I had a Westwood/Allenby final
so lost on my picks. I only go national for the Ryder/Walker/Solheim, etc, so would have been most happy for Cink to win. Prefer Casey, Donald & Olly to Ian, although realise | may be minority on this.
Wendy, watching Great Britain Men’s curling playing USA right now… GB played Canada last night and it was the BEST game to watch (unfortunately, they lost on the last shot). There is some talent there!

Thanks for the reminder
Just switched over to Olympics. I missed the men yesterday (didn’t record it either, more’s the pity – maybe we’ll have highlights again ) but did get to watch the ladies earlier. How are you doing in your local league?
I’m glad you got to watch! It’s been tough to watch USA…we’ve struggled, both men & women…and we’re out. It looks like the GB men’s team still has a good chance to get to the semi’s if they go win-win – but tough games ahead. Canada men & women have been strong – we’ll see what happens. Enjoy!
We got killed last Wed…but I feel a rally this week!! :)

GB controls their own destiny...
from what I’m hearing now…must beat a Tough Norway team with very distracting pants!! :-) I cannot see that game. I’m rooting for you!!!
Watching Canada men right now – just so good.

are you believing this ?
23 holes, a boatload of great shots, a bucket of bad shots mostly followed by really good recovery shots and a few mind blowing recovery shots…and we STILL don’t know who’s in the final against Poulter.
Poulter has to be thrilled with the situation…but I’ve seen this happen before. One guy SHOULD be dead tired – the other SHOULD be fresh and ready to go, but he ends up getting steamrolled in the final.
"this ball will fit in that fairway"
Poulter is looking good
3 up with 9 holes to go. It’s been a good tournament so far.
