Playing there tomorrow around noon. Was just wondering what the dress attire was. Do men have to wear pants or can you wear shorts? TIA

You can wear shorts. You're not playing in a Tour event. Collared shirt, no denim. Same as every other overpriced TPC course

have fun, let us know what kinda shape the course is in. i'm sure it's beautiful and they probably are putting up stands by now. should be a great time to play.

I played there 3 weeks ago tomorrow. It was in great shape except for the temporary greens on 2 and 11. If those greens are reopened, you should be pleased with the course.

They still had temporary greens on 2 and 11 and had plenty of construction going on with stands throughout the course. The course was in great shape though. Had a few rough spots on a few greens that were roped off. Looks like maybe nematodes or something got to it but other than that it was beautiful!

What are those green fees hitting you for?

I played there last year and I don't remember the fees being outrageous.

Twilight rates are $60 starting in may. That is a steal for a tpc course

normally you get a discount with your ticket stub after the tournament, too, i think. at least last year you did.

I'm sure its way too early, but do you know who you are playing with?

no. find out at the draw party the tuesday night before. i think zurich is guaranteed half of the first 20 picks so need to get real lucky to play with a big name.

Yea, they stuck a flag stick in the middle of the fairway and mowed it just a tad tighter. It's an automatic 2 putt once your on the green if you're playing with me.

I'm sure they saw us coming, but my girlfriend paid $200 a piece for our round yesterday. And like the others said, the temporary greens are in the fairway, about 40 yards short of the normal green. I actually birdied two and I think boggied 11.
