Easily baw. The course isn’t that difficult for someone who actually plays golf frequently and doesn’t just watch it on tv. Won’t be putting up professional scores but breaking 100, come on man.
There’s a YouTube golfer that’s a scratch and he went and played Bethpage on the last day the course was open to the public and shot 84. Goes to show how insane the tour pros are

Go play it in a couple of months and get back to us.

Played it as a +1. It ate my lunch.

Did you break 90?
Posted on 5/12/19 at 8:57 pm to COTiger
83 with no penalty shots.
The elevation changes into the greens gave me problems.

How did you putt the greens? Do you remember if you had any 3 putts? And btw, 83 is a very respectable score for that course.

I didn’t find the greens to be any more difficult than other tour-level courses.

The course is hard. I never got comfortable. Always felt like I had too much or too little club. I had a lot of chips/pitches from 20-30 yards due to missing greens. Blocked a couple drives and had to hack out of some deep rough.

Leishman pulled out of the Byron Nelson, likely to play the PGA but not a lock.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I suspect you think you could better 83 if you were to play the course again.

You played the tour tips?

I’d feel more comfortable as far as knowing what to expect. I’m not confident I could shoot better than 83 though. I drove the ball really well that day with the exception of 2 holes. If I had an off day with the driver I could definitely see a 90 happening.

Played the black tees except for a couple of holes that had the tee boxes tarped. We played one tee box up on those holes

You probably couldn't break 100 on the actual course.
I was a 7 hcp at the time. I didn't come CLOSE to breaking 100.
Els won that year. Only 4 players were under par for the tournament.

I think the final 2 foursomes will look about the same as at the Masters. I'll go with Tiger.

Expect Rory and Rose to be major factors this time
Posted on 5/13/19 at 6:20 am to Cosmo
Going Sunday
Posted on 5/13/19 at 7:01 am to Cosmo
I’m expecting Bruce to be in the mix

I got to play Torrey Pines South course the day after then Buick Open back in the day, played one of the best rounds of golf in my life, birdied 7 & 17. Shot 87
These guys are good.

Brodie Smith and they played even further than the tips. They played "one foot in the rough at the back of the tee box" it was insane.
He's actually an amazing trick shot frisbee guy too. Or used to be.
