They actually have a pretty cool drone shot for each hole at the bottom.

#2 is one of the hardest holes that I've ever played.

#16 and #18 are gorgeous tee shots. Just nothing but mountains in front of you.

Well, I didn't beat my score at Harbour Town from last time on account of the 49 I had on the front.

I did shoot a 42 on the back though, so that was nice. Couldn't keep driver in between the trees and it was killing me. Chipped in for birdie on #7, so i can at least say I've birdied both par 3s on the front. Almost holed out for birdie from 77 on the 15th. One hop and stopped 2 inches from the cup.

Most importantly, it was fun getting to play with my dad this time around.

Oh, forgot, one other thing:

I ended up in the greenside bunker on 17 where Bubba Watson had the crab on his ball years back. I took my 60, caught all ball, and nuked the thing 80 yards into the sound. Was absolutely hilarious.

I saw a proposal to make this a mixed event and I would be way more interested if Nelly Korda was playing

the problem with the President's Cup is that the Ryder Cup is the "premier" international team competition, so the President's Cup just can't carry the same level of import

making it a mixed event would make it 1000x more engaging

But the American men crush them. I think it'd be pretty even most years

Hmmmm, let's break down the teams. Base this on the top 6 in Pres Cup points for the men and top 6 in world ranking for the women:

US - Scheff, X, Cantlay, Morikawa, Clark, Theegala, Nelly, Vu, Rose, Coughlin, Ewing, Khang
Int'l - Hideki, Im, Scott, TK, Day, An, Lydia, Jin Young, Yin, Amy Yang, Hannah Green, Ayaka Furue

In looking at that, depending on how they would format the tournament (my proposal would be to have the same setup as now but with mixed teams in the 4ball and 4somes with 2 sitting out each session, 4 on Saturday's sessions and then man vs man, woman vs woman in singles), I think it would end up pretty even. Obviously, they'd have to make some determinations with teeboxes or maybe that becomes part of the strategy in alternate shot as far as who has teebox advantage on a particular hole. I think it's something golf fans could get behind.

Geez, this might be good fodder for a discussion on the radio tomorrow morning. Thanks, guys!

How many years until short putts completely ruin scheffler? I’m guessing he gets two or three more majors until his brain is fried
