One Day, Two Tournaments

There's an unusual circumstance taking place today: Some of the world's best golfers are playing in two different tournaments on the same day.

The CA Championship is wrapping up this morning in Miami. Then, a little later today in Orlando, the following golfers who finish the CA this morning will also start the Tavistock Cup:


  • Henrick Stenson
  • Tiger Woods
  • Charles Howell III
  • Daniel Chopra
  • J.B. Holmes
  • Ernie Els
  • Robert Allenby
  • Nick O'Hern
  • Retief Goosen
  • Craig Parry

Tavistock Cup officials pushed their start times back by about 2-and-a-half hours, and coverage on the Golf Channel is supposed to begin at approximately 1:30 p.m. ET.

Paula Creamer and Annika Sorenstam are playing this year, too, although neither gets to play on Day 1. They face each other in Day 2 singles.

Is there an airport close to the course ?
Play is supposed to start this morning around 8:30 and the leaders were in the fairway at 10.

It looks like Tiger is the only one who will have to rush to get back to Orlando.  

Finish between 10:30 and 11, 30 minutes to pack up and drive to the airport around the corner - an hour to Orlando (with all the airport traffic and taxiing) - then over to the golf course by 1:00 ?  

whew !  I'm getting tight thinking about it.

hmmm
I guess it's cool that Annika and Paula get to play with the guys, but I wonder if that's the best way to tune up for the Prospector course.  Ah, whatever.  They'll be fine!

why not ?
They know the course they are playing this week - no real surprises.  They will be on site for the Wednesday pro-am.

And hey - it's the club championship !  

Did you see the stack of prizes they are playing for ?  They could make more in prizes than prize money this week.
