The Greenbrier Classic

The flood is gone and the tournament is back for 2017.

I predict Charles Howell III to win after Phil decides to hit driver on the 72nd hole.

If you are picking Davis Love, please specify as both III and IV are in the field this week.

John Daly and Vijay Singh are also visiting from the Senior Tour.

Top 4 not already in the field qualify for the British Open in two weeks.

Where do the caddies get to sleep this year? Coal mine?

Very much looking forward to this tournament. Yeah, I know it has one of the weakest fields a stand alone PGA TOUR event can have (174 SOF) but I enjoy these understated events.

Of course Phil Mickelson is making his first PGA TOUR start without "Bones" as his regular caddie; it will be very interesting to observe his level of interest and focus. I'm excited about this chapter in Phil's marvelous career. He has missed the cut in each of his three appearances in this tournament.

The world's #1 amateur, Chile's 18 year old Joaquin Niemann, is in the field this week. He has won four of his last seven starts, with two runner-up finishes and a missed cut at the U.S. Open.

Also teeing it up at the Greenbrier is the #3 ranked amateur, Mississippi star Braden Thornberry. Remember, he tied 4th at the FedEx St. Jude Classic a few weeks ago.

The weather forecast calls for a 50% chance of scattered thunderstorms for both Thursday and Friday, but the weekend looks pretty good.

I've gone a few different years, the field is definitely on the weaker end, however Jim Justice puts on just a hell of an event in terms of fan experience.

The 18th hole is a par 3.

From what I hear from friends who have attended in the past, it has a reputation of being a shìt show.

I like Keegan or Reed this week.

Great to see the tournament back. Lets go with Ricky Barnes. Has showed some recent signs of life.

...but you never know with Phil.

Both have been showing signs of life lately. I'd love to see Patrick contend this week.

So was the response.

Walked along with DL3 this morning. Course looks great, and the amenities were top notch. Planning to follow Phil and Bubba tomorrow!

Course looks fantastic.

I'm praying Sebastian Munoz doesn't ask fellow countryman Camilo Villegas for advice on how to play the second round

Course looks fantastic.

Kudos to DLIII. Way to represent the 50 plus crowd.

If you have to explain the joke....?

Strange places though, those Spa like things. A little like religious cults. Do they drink healing waters?

Frodo is going like clockwork now.

Watching tonight is really confirming the lack of star power on show.

Don't get me wrong, I am still watching it but the Irish is winning this week when it comes to watchability.

Anyone else see the Danny Lee interview on Sky Sports? Zzzzzzzzzzz...

Crazy to think -1 got through the Monday Qualifier for this event..

I agree. The coverage of the Irish has been really good, and I like the fact that it's on in the morning. Too bad they lost Rory, though.

Does anyone know how Ollie Schniederjans got DQ'ed?

I was wondering the same thing...

Does anyone know how Ollie Schniederjans got DQ'ed?

Ollie mis-spelled his name on the entrance form?

astonishing how good the condition of this course looks. would be the best vacation imaginable for me

It is a fun course and resort, but the pricing is surreal. They think a little too highly of themselves, in my opinion.

Reminds me of the aging Mom that raids her teenage daughter's closet.
