Wednesday start this week for you fantasy golf players!!!

Better for TV viewing. I also just noticed that the Pebble pro am is an elevated event next week. Pebble usually has a poor field, but I'm guessing the field will improve with the double payout despite the long rounds.

Wednesday - Saturday to avoid competing with NFL playoffs Sunday?

 

[Pilchard]

Yes. PGA has done this on the Conference Championship weekened for awhile.

So after round 1, Will is +1 on the South Course. A decent day today on the North, and he can make the 2nd cut in a row. I think making cuts is all he can reasonably shooting for at this point. Meanwhile, after round 1 in the UAE, Alex is T20 at -4. He was getting some air time this a.m. and had 3 really nice sandies to save par.

Dunlap is leaving Bama to turn pro...

Hard to argue with that decision! What an incredible feat.

AF has full DP Tour status?

AF has full DP Tour status?

I assume so. He played last week and had a top 20 at a Rolex event, so if he's in Rolex events, I'm guessing he has full DP status. He has played well there since turning pro.

Here comes Nicolai....

BTW, NIL signed Adrian Meronk... LIV cornering the hot polish golf market.

Meronk is good and should have been on their RC team. This in part could be him giving the middle finger to Luke Donald and the Western Euros on that team. That said, I agree this move doesn't exactly move the needle like nabbing Rahm did.

He was the DP player of the year last year.
But yeah. I agree. No one is tuning in to see him play per se.

Well, I was in part the last couple of years because he had become 1 of the premier DP players, and I watch a lot of DP. He, Kitiyama, Min Woo, Fox, the Hojgaards and Hisatsune were good follows, but now only Rasmus and Foxy remain.

 

[Pilchard]

Fox is playing at Torrey this week. He will miss the cut.

 

[Buttermaker]

Kind of a snoozer leaderboard through two rounds.

Anthony Kim coming back

Anthony Kim coming back

Holy shit!!

Anthony Kim plotting return to pro golf after decade-long disappearance

Anthony Kim has been in discussions with both the PGA Tour and LIV as he plots a return to pro golf more than a decade after he disappeared.

Anthony Kim coming back

No chance he is still competitive.

Like our text thread earlier - he'd be maybe the third best Kim on tour behind Tom and Si-Woo. Maybe behind Michael too.
