Oh man. I looked up and down the tee time page, and this may be the worst PGA full field  lineup I have seriously ever seen. It’s like something you’d see in Punta Canta or some place.. The Mecca of US golf and nobody wants to play.. Wouldn't have anything to do with the pros not having an opportunity to strengthen their popularity currency among the CEOs and “Hollywood stars”.. 

 

How much tax do the players have to pay the state of California when they win?   Probably not even worth it.  I am not joking.

Something like this. You’d think of all the years to play in this tournament, the pros would be there. Then again, a lot of top players were in Saudi Arabia last week. And there’s a biggie next week, but I can’t see any of these guys taking a week off to prepare for a non major. I guess, after LA, the schedule doesn’t let up until the week before The Masters..? Nah.. they get to go home to Florida and they skip tourneys there too.
Honestly, Pebble deserves better than this.

The dad was a little odd but smart.  He was a big hockey player who even played in some Silicon Valley hockey league.   At the peak, their Sun workstations were what everyone wanted but that did not last.  They worked on UNIX O/S.  Had a great CPU designer in Andreas Bechtolsheim - i think he was also an early investor in Google. 

 

McNealey's 4 sons supposedly had double bunk beds in one bedroom in a 7800 sq ft family home. and were told a few months out of high school to plan to be out of the house.  The father was probably pretty tough but I doubt he was playing top flites on the high school golf team.

 

Still - much nicer people than Bill Gates.

45 billion to charity. What a jerk!! Lol

Calif 13.2%.   I can see why some people would pass on Pebble.

Tax rates and and cost of living are definitely high here. I say you get what you pay for. I play golf year round, can be at the ocean in 45min, Tahoe in under 3hrs, Monterey or Carmel in under 2hrs... Could I live in Nebraska for a lot less?! Definitely 

I can be at the ocean in about 2 minutes, I can play golf year round and can be in Telluride in about 4.5 hours.  No very suspicious fires to deal with.

Where do you watch Spieths group ok spyglas, featured groups follows Mickelson and Cinks group?

My sentiments as well, WTH, Golf Channel showing guys on Pebble who haven’t even broke par.  Horrible, when there consistently showing a guy that’s +10 instead of the leaders all of which are over at Spyglass.  I’m shutting it off

Majority of the leaders on on Spyglass, but all the coverage is showing is Pebble. I guess they just don't have many cameras on the other course, but coverage today is just really weird. Like why are we seeing every shot of Phil/Casey/Homa group.

I was just thinking the same thing. I am grateful to be able to watch golf on a Friday afternoon, but the coverage is a bit tepid. Rarely do we see any of the leaders, and when we do it's just a put. In the meantime we see golfers either not in the lead, or hovering around the cut line.

Akshay Bhatia is 19 years old!  Holy cow.  The dude also wears glasses and is one behind YJS.  Who was the last guy to wear glasses?  Tom Kite?   He was born in Cali and lives is Wake Forest (?).  He is a pro right not college player? 

 

 


This is the guy we watched at the US AM a couple years ago.. runner-up..? I forget. Believe he turned pro and is skipping the greatest years of his life. 
 

Long, lanky.. reminds me of 1996 Tiger. Swing - like Steve Flesch.
