For me, it’s this weeks tournament, the Genesis. Riviera is the best course played outside of the major courses IMO. I personally feel it’s way more entertaining to watch the pros play interesting golf courses, rather than the typical putting contest we see week in and week out. Anyways, what say you

The players.


Also love the zurich not because of the prestige but because it’s extremely fun to be out there and see these guys play in person on a course I’ve played.

Colonial. “Hogan’s Alley”

Accuracy over distance, usually a strong field, and it’s a beautiful course.

Genesis because I think the course is amazing and RBS Heritage because I have played the course and it's so strategic

It’s the players but if you take it out because of the prestige, it’s this week. Riviera is great golf course. I like Kapalua because I’ve played it a couple of times. I hate what the Pebble tournament has become. A terrible field has ruined that tournament

Depends on what you think the goal of that tournament is. It's a charity event unfortunately so the celebrity aspect and the 7 hour rounds won't go away thus limiting the field of pros. That format with 3 top courses in the country with just pros would be incredible to watch but it will never happen.

For me it's tPlayers, Genesis and Farmers. Basically any course that resembles a major setup that requires more than driver, wedge, birdie putt on every hole.

It would never happen, but I would love to see a second Pebble tournament on the schedule. Imo there is no better course for a major. Its not even close.

Wow, nobody mentioned a LIV event. This place is finally normalizing.

?

LIV doesn't have a yearly repeating schedule. How can you pick a LIV course when you dont know what they are?

For purely aesthetics, the first tournament (Plantation in Maui) is great shot making.
Pebble is awesome.The Players, is pretty good, Riviera and The Memorial are good TV too.

I always love Harbor Town. It sucks that it is the week after the Masters.
