Looking at the tee times--unless I am reading this wrong, there's no way they can complete the first round today, right? They have golfers teeing off until 3:46 local, which is only 2h 15m until sunset or so.
Yep, this frost delay has really messed things up. The last 2 groups on each side were already gonna be pushing darkness, which often happens here. Another frost delay tomorrow would really suck for the weekend and getting out of here by halftime.

Sucks that you're affected by it.

As someone that hates this event, good.

Tiger’s playing next week, y’all.

And I’ll be happily sitting on my couch not dealing with it.

Don't know much about Nick Taylor, but I'm impressed.

Scheffler with the nut-up putt. I was amazed he was the only of the 3 that parred, particularly after their second shots

This is a terrible idea imo. One of the things that makes the Tour so fun to watch for me is when guys I don't know much about play well and hold their own against the best players on Tour. Those stories are compelling for the average Joe at home.

Watching an event with only stars (outside of the FedEx stuff) would not appeal to me as much.

My Full Swing review:

With nuggets like "One Round is 18 holes" there isn't much for me here.

Yeah, I had to put myself in the place of ‘what if this was a cricket doc, then I would need these terms’. They REALLY want that novice golf viewer.

Sure seems that way.

Tiger birdies the first with Rory and JT

golf is better with Tiger around. He just flew his drive 302 on #3, seems healthy enough. We'll see if he can walk 4 rounds

you don’t see it often but I’ve never liked those long sleeve polos that Rory is wearing, fashion-wise


they’re good for rugby but that’s it

god the broadcasts are so ****


was watching on ESPN+ through Hulu and the broadcast, right before Tiger’s group shoots at 4, cuts out and says “event ended” with absolutely no warning that that was going to happen


never mind that the previous five minutes were spent showing nothing but the group waiting to tee off at 4
