It's strange Sunday broadcast is on ABC; does ABC plan to rejoin the ranks of golf broadcast?

I've never golfed in Florida, but I'll gladly skip courses like this one. Water on or near every hole...what a monotonous, contrived layout...worse than TPC Sawgrass.

We don't know whether In Gee will get off her butt and finally travel outside of Korea and Japan, but hope so.As the No. nine seed, In Gee has little chance at $1.0 unofficial money, but the event is important:- She could become a multiple winner in 2016
- If she wins the tournament and Vare Trophy, she adds two more points towards to her HOF qualification
- She could claim No. 2 in Rolex Ranking
In Gee would be the first rookie to win Vare Trophy winner since Nancy Lopez did it in 1978.

To be honest, whether In Gee finishes in the top nine in the CME standings or not, the chances of someone 8th or 9th in the standings winning the million are pretty slight. I would guess that if you're not top five it's probably not going to happen. But would I love to see her get the win and/or seal up the Vare? You betcha! She is so close she can taste it, and Ko has not been playing top form golf either of late. I think the main thing I would like to see, though, is a So Yeon Ryu win before the year is out. But if that can't happen, then I'd root for In Gee to get the win and possibly move to #2. That would be an amazing finish to what I think has already been a great season! https://www.instagram.com/p/BMfDI24Ayd_ https://www.instagram.com/p/BMAeVGMDeX1

Shanshan or Ha Na, especially Ha Na; has to be the favorite to win the Tour Championship.
Ha Na should've won it last year.

Don't worry...Whan will make sure In Gee is there...for the sole reason of the ROY award at the Rolex dinner. He wants to hear the MC (likely the GREAT Tom Abbott) say: "Ladies and gentlemen...please give a warm applause to our 2016 ROY, In Gee Chun, oooops....I meant DUMBO!

But Dumbo has never played this course...and Florida bermuda...especially if moist....can play very tricky. And with this week off....I can almost guarantee Tina has greased many to get Lydia early practice on the course and have her loop chart the course for 11 hrs a day.

Phil Ya gotta become a playa and not a poser and not let water or hazards intimidate you. There are two courses here that have water that comes into play on 15 of 18 holes....ya just gotta learn to play away from the water. Besides.....courses can make money off balls in the water.....though the new 4 piece urethane Kirkland Signature for $15/dozen might destroy the used ball and low end markets. Costco has already sold out....out of stock until Nov 21. They've yet to sell it in Canada....but once they do....I'm sure I'll find my fair share....I find so many Hex Controls that were sold at Costco. So how is your Adams XTD experiment coming along? EDIT....I believe Argonne69 has played Tiburon.....I think he shared his experience on WRX.

Well the local flea bag motels will be happy to collect another $62 for 2 nights from Phil for another year. Phil is my hero.....how he finds these deals is something else. As long as MHL shows up...he's a happy guy....but I doubt MHL has any connections with Diana to get Phil a weekly pass to the USWO.

The CME is really catering to the family theme to attract fans. I don't think in pass years they offered a weekly pass.....$50 is a good deal this week.
