Ricky Barnes crumble Hoffman for the win. Hoffman has been playing top notch golf for a while now. Playoff with Reed would have been interesting if Hoffman didn't hole that last clutch putt. At QH several years ago Ricky Barnes was sporting a "69" belt buckle which I thought was classy. He was a big dude back then, looks a little smaller these days but could just be TV.
Not sure how big he is, but isn't Barnes 1 of the very shortest drivers on tour? And yes, Hoffman has been playing the best golf of his career the last year plus.
On a side note, also a very nice weekend for the Pillars. Think they both had top 5s. I forget which, but 1 of the broadcasts said she is only 20-25 yards short of her husband off the tee, which doesn't bode well for his PGA future. And while she's not 1 of the established stars in the sport, she's quietly becoming 1 of the best US players - and hit an incredibly clutch putt to win the Solheim Cup last year.
Charley had a solid few weeks before his win, clutch putt on 18
Reed almost did it. He's got some brass ones.
Anyone going to the Wells Fargo next week? Speculation is Tiger might be making his first start back, which would be awesome so the crowds would all flock to him which means I can watch DJ bomb it all over the place unimpeded.
Ugh I hope they wouldn't do that
Tiger has rushed back before he was ready in the past. If he is smart he won't play at all this spring, including at Oakmont. But he hasn't always been smart about these decisions.
Some solid players in NOLA this weekend. I think Justin Rose goes b2b
