There should be a lot of 5 wood thru hybrids hit into greens especially if the wind is howling.

    backinit When it's calm, the course can be had. Its main defenses are small greens with tricky breaks and thick greenside rough.

    But when the wind is blowing hard, it's a monster.

      Putting will be an issue for most of them, including our chick, imo.

      Apparently streaming only on Peacock🤔....how are you guys watching?

        ode Peacock. No All in one streaming service, but I see a fair amount of golf on Peacock.

          Live on USA.....5 hours worth.....couldn't find it on the guide cuz I didn't scroll past 5, keep forgetting it's west coast.

            ode The channel I was watching went to USA..I just had to back out and it continued on another channel. This group is fun to watch.

                backinit oh yeah. Did you see the "clump" of grass Henderson was in early on😳helluva out by her!

                Lydia with a sideways shot on the first par 3 ⬅️◀️

                    ode Huge out. I had to leave the TV as the temp finally dropped into the 80s but this group isn't doing as well as I thought they would. It's awesome that an amateur is high on the leaderboard. A lot of golf left to go.

                        backinit Yes, the premiere group for TV did not play out as expected. Can't tell if they used the coverage to help find Lydia Ko's ball on that Par 3.

                            Come to think of it the coverage was a lot like the PGA only showing certain players....every once in a while they'd show that big gal from England, Hewison🤔

                            Ball was not found. You could hide a body in those bushes 😮
                            She played provisional from right hand bunker and chopped it up from there for a 7 I think.
                            I can relate, sadly. :/

                                I was just checking the whole leaderboard on The Golf Channel website. There are only about 40 American girls
                                who even qualified for our Open!! And of those 40, only two.....Alison Corpuz and Bailey Tardy.....are in the top 20...!!!
                                WTH is wrong with the American girls???? I realize it's only the second round, but .......?????

                                  Spuzz Right, had they looked at the ball flight, they would spend the time looking behind the bushes. Now if I played and paid $500+ green fee, that ball better had jumped out onto the green.

                                      The on course interview with Hannah Green was pretty good.

                                      It was OB behind there.
                                      There was a posse that started looking before Ko left the tee box and nothing.
                                      After she showed up, she had 3 mins to find it, but really only pretended to look, as the ruling would have left her in a worse spot than the provisional bunker did.

                                      At 500 bucks a round, they need to put hockey rinks boards around that hole LOL

                                          Just heard that the winner gets $2 million this week. The entire purse next week is only $1.75 million. 😏

                                          Spuzz the purpose for finding it was to hit a 2nd shot from the tee after taking an unplayable from where it was found as there would have been no where to drop and her original provisional would have been null and void. She would have then had to retee as that is an option with an unplayable. Would have likely been better off vs. where whe was on the provisional. I would have tried like hell to find that ball.
