It helps to use an extra stiff shaft, instead of a senior flex.

Gonna be fun to watch the Tour guys not having spectators stopping their balls from going farther out of play.

You mean the massive galleries don't keep yours on the golf course?

Always needing somebody to take one for the team on at least a couple holes. I watched a little golf today and there appeared to be at least some people there watching.

I wish! Even when I played mini-tours, we might have 10 people following. They must have been bored as he!!

I remember me and my buddy going to a Buy.com event years ago. You could grab a beer and follow them down the fairway as long as you wasn’t right up on them. We even helped search for balls. It was pretty cool. We followed Chris Smith, guy was looonnnngggg.... and a great golfer. Fun to watch. He was paired with a guy from Africa (black guy) but I can’t remember his name. He hit the ball great but got every terrible break imaginable. We felt bad for him. Then I remember maybe a few years after seeing he had passed away from a heart condition.

My Dad played Harbor Town today and they’ve just put the stands up. He got up and down twice after taking drops from the bleachers.

Everything up until the Masters. Hopefully 4 weeks will be enough time.

Masters has been postponed.

Playing it in the fall would be great. The new schedule sucks with the PGA Championship being earlier now and the British being the last major in July. Nothing to look forward to after.

Can't be played without azaleas and dogwoods in bloom.

They will have to go with pumpkins, corn stalks, and hay bales.

They have cancelled March Madness, and postponed the Masters. If the Indy 500 gets cancelled on top of those two, I see no reason to live.

Maybe they’ll install Bermuda greens and play in August.
