I've got him this week, but i didn't start him. Oh well. As a general rule, it looks like they are tearing Muirfield up. Tons of guys are 2,3 or 4 under par through 7 or 8 holes. Looks like 20 under or more will win.

 

[jimotis4heisman]

maybe maybe not. i saw stents all over the place yesterday. they were going to water the course as it was place very rough yesterday... hopefully they let it dry out and play lighting fast (especially five)

Agree... seems like the back 9 is a bit tougher as scores are generally stagnating after the 8th.

i started stricker today, he was -4 after 11 ended the day even after a wonderful 7 on the 17th....

A lot of guys are finding a rough go on the back nine. The winning score may not be quite as low as i previously said. Is it supposed to rain in C'bus tonight or tomorrow? If so that would help out the scores a lot.

I've got tickets for the week, anybody else from BP going to the Memorial?

For anybody interested, Sears had a ticket for Sat/Sun posted in the Tickets forum.

THey are saying the greens are running a 14 on the stimp! For a comparison I would say the average public course runs 7. A good country club you may get 10 or 11 on a good day. That means if you roll a ball down a ramp on a flat part of the green it will roll out 14 feet. That is very fast. Scores will not be as low as they have been the first two days unless the course gets some rain.

I heard Nick Faldo and Jack confirmed that the greens are running at 13. Plenty fast.....

As it turns out 17 under won. All things considered that is a very low score. Adam Scott lost so he'll probably go to Zigs tonight and hit on college chicks

 

[THEWOOD]

ohair just can not close out a tourney

 

[fourteenandoh]

its tough coming back after shooting a rediculously low score. i would chalk his not winning up to that more than not being able to finish. If he had been tied or winning with a few holes left i'd say he can't finish. For an example think Sergio Garcia. He can't close anything.

Great story on ESPN's front page about the winner K.J. Choi and how Jack was his idol growing up. Good story and I'm happy a guy like Choi won this years tournament. Here is the link if you wanna read it. ESPN.com: Choi starts fast, hangs on at end to win Memorial
