2020 Memorial Tournament

Recommended Posts

Tiger Woods returns for a tournament he's won 5 times.

Course: This is the second week in a row at Muirfield Village (par 72, 7456 yards) with the rough back up to its normal 4 inches and the greens sped back up to its usual 13 on the stimpmeter.

FedEx Cup Points: 500

Purse: $9,300,000 with $1,674,000 to the winner

Field: expands from 120 to 133 First place points are a projected 76 if everyone starts. This could be the best field ever for a non Major/ TPC/ WGC/ FedEX Cup Playoff

field as of Friday: https://www.pgatour.com/inside-the-field/2020/07/10/how-they-qualified-the-memorial-tournament-presented-by-nationwide-muirfield-village-golf-club.html

add Brooks Koepka as a late entry

 

There will be a major battle for #1.

Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas, Dustin Johnson or Webb Simpson can leave Ohio as #1 in the world.

Not a bad substitute for British Open week.

As always the Memorial chooses an honoree to recognize the contributors to the game of golf.

 

This year's honoree is Nick Price winner of the 1992 and 1994 PGA Championship and the 1994 British Open.

He won 18 times on the PGA Tour including the TPC, four additional tournaments on the European Tour and 14 wins on other major pro tours.

He spent 44 weeks as #1 in the world

Nick was the 1993 and 1994 PGA Tour Player of the Year

And he is a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame.

So, do you put your money on someone who was in the field this past week or no?

 

I am really excited to see this and see what all they do to make things different and to see just how much the scores differ (if any) barring any odd weather issues.

 

I really hope this highlights the work that superintendents can do with a course when they are asked.

That's been the best thing about the restart by far. The lower notoriety tournaments which otherwise would be fairly weak have been stuffed with the top guns on Tour. Not to say that the Memorial isn't usually one of the premium ones, but more about RBC Heritage, Travelers, and Rocket Mortgage.

BTW, a few interesting "sub plots"

Would Bryson keep his top-10 streak live? (I think so)Where would Tiger finish? (top 25, I guess)How different the scores will be from the last week? (I believe traditionally Memorial Tournament is in low -10s. Last week was -20.)Will Rory do anything with his no.1 ranking? (Unlikely. Probably just another high finish, no win.)I'm sure you all have more things in mind. Let's hear them!

-200 he makes the cut (1/2)

yeah I'm sure there will be a lot of volume on him.

 

hes +260 to finish in the top 10 which could be a good bet given how he played in the match with phil,

 

hes +320 to have the lowest 2 round score between him, brooks and rory - id say stay away from this one but given how crappy brooks has looked and rory has been somewhat off
