Pgatour.com has been having problems. First groups go off at 9. Leaders around 12:40 I think.

Yeah, it's been brutal. I try and get it updated in the morning, but the website has been of zero help to me. I know Cantlay/Reed and Smith/Blixt are in the final pairing.

Considering the horrific forecast for Sunday, I wonder if they'd consider going 36 holes on a saturday.

website and app were fricked up all afternoon.

I was following Loupe and Pete all day again and they really got it rolling on the back nine (real front nine). The mood was a little somber and then Loupe made a birdie chip on 3 and the swag came out. I think they birdied 5 of the last 7 or something like that. Peterson also chipped in for Birdie a few holes later and then they really started making putts and played their way into the weekend. It was a lot of fun to watch and can't wait to see them make a push tomorrow. I think they're at T24 at the moment at -9.

I feel like you never see that on Tour. They always want their Sunday ratings.

They will be teeing off early tomorrow morning to beat the weather according to the PGA channel on Sirius XM.

Bridge City sucks.

Having it in City Park is gonna make for a much larger party with a much higher #Partyfactor.

The last couple of groups will have their hands full on the back 9 with the wind gusting like it is.

Wind was steady out there all day. I agree about getting this away from TPC. Course sucks imo

I was bringing Lucas Glover to the course two years ago ... we were just chatting about non-golf stuff. Got into how he grew up with busting his arse. He said "ya know you leave downtown and come over here and it's just crappy. Kids these days stuck in places like this have got to work their tails off to get out of HERE (pointing out the window)."

Plenty of them don't like it where it is. They've all complained about getting there in the past.

W/ best ball it's gonna be tough to beat Smith and Blixt tomorrow. Spieth and Palmer would be right at the top if they could make anything, but they missed at least 4 putts from inside 5 feet today.

I kinda think new city park course sucks. The pros will eat it up. I was in the 70s my first time playing it. Now maybe if they can somehow cut it to us open conditions or something but really it's too wide open.

Pretty sure they're under contract through 2019 at TPC.

I don't think it sucks. Not even a little bit. The 4 hole stretch on the front of 4-7 is a little "meh," but I think the back 9 is great. Every hole from 11-17 is designed very well.

I definitely agree with this though. However, if the end goal is to host a PGA Tour event, there is plenty of time to make some changes to address the issues. They could grow the rough up, shrink the fairways, add some bunkers, etc.
