Excuse me?! I lived there for a few years and am glad I never heard this.

I heard the Collin County folks want to nickname it the Nel-Dawg!

Good player turnout, fun course to watch and play, not having a SMU frat beer chugging environment.

Yeah sorry Four Seasons we don't miss you

With reduced attendance this year I wouldn't expect a big party. The coming years may be different

Check out this vid and the vid that this tweet responded to:

Now that we've firmly established that it is now the Nel-dawg, back to actual golf.

It is a little windier and warmer today, but some of the morning guys were able to go low. Let's go with Saturday leader will be Sam Burns at -20 at the end of the day.

Tomorrow's weather should be interesting with morning storms probably.

Yeah, this would be annoying in a Saturday morning weekend hacker game. Unbelievable to consistently do it on Tour.

Kang is also a cheat.

I forgot that the guy has some cheating scandal tied to him as well. What a joke.

Apparently Rahm's caddie got into it with Kang on the following hole and Rahm had to hold him back.

Bronson Burgoon sighting! On page 1 of the leaderboard it just looked like.

Bronson and Ryan Palmer with good days so far

These guys tearing this place up but anything is an improvement over that goat track they were at.

Lol. Trinity Forest was a horrible venue for the tournament, but that course is a 10x better and more interesting course than Craig Ranch

They should play 1-2 of the par 5's as a par 4. The US Open routinely does this. Between the storm and a cool spring, the weather this year prevented the rough from growing out. It's nowhere near where they wanted it. I think on a normal year it will be a respectable stop. Easy but not this easy. The word about it players-wise seems to be positive whereas TF drew some definite negative reactions

This is the guy who refers to the Byron Nelson as "The Byron"

It's a niche sport. Only certain "party" tournaments attract non-golf fans. The Byron lost that when they left Las Colinas for south Dallas where no one wanted to go. Hopefully the new venue will spark more interest again, but it's not convenient for most people that live in the metroplex

We'll see.

Colonial is still the best one I've been to in person, and I've been to the Phoenix open and the PGA at Bethpage.


All true. But golf does offer a chance to get up close and personal that other sports don't unless your Jack Nicholson. Seems like it's a selling point.

Totally agree, but most people don't give two ****s about golf, unfortunately. Go look at some threads here. Someone posted that they only watch 2 tournament a year, and neither are majors. That's weird to me if your a fan of the game. They play golf, but they're not really a fan of it if they only watch 2 tournament a year
I said I watch 2 PGATOUR tournaments a year. None of the majors are PGATour tournaments.

A real golf fan would know that. Just like they would know it's "The Nelson" for short.

Lol. PGA != PGATour.

So tell me, oh wise one, what entity puts on the PGA? USGA? R&A? ANGC?
Rubble

PGA of America

Can also add the Ryder Cup, as it's put on by the PGA of America when in the US.
Rubble

I get the technicalities that they aren't put on by the PGA Tour, but the players do get fedex cup points by making the cut

But, if that's what you meant, then I missed that part in your posts. My bad.

PGA of America is not the same as the PGA Tour. Hopefully that clears that up.

PGA of America is what club pros are members of, hence why 20 club pros play in the PGA Championship every year. It's the only tournament that ams can't play in either.

This has become a decent leaderboard between Burns trying to make it 2 out of 3, Spieth, and Kuchar. And with Burgoon and Palmer hanging around out there too

Here at the Nel-Dawg, and it's a pretty fun environment. Currently hopping green to green following Kuchar and Spieth.

I think we really need to ramp up this tournament thread with some complaining about the TV coverage and Amanda Balionis.

I can't believe no one on here knows the proper nickname for the tournament. It's the By Nelly and it must be said like Keith Jackson saying "Whoa Nelly!"

I would like to hook her up with a few too many margaritas in Legacy West and then bury my face in her tits

Watching Noren practice an over-the-top chop before and after many of his swings is interesting. I'm like "no **** you sliced that one one fairway over"

Did the announcers say why he does it? It's weird!
Trucker 96
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I haven't heard them talk about it, but it has to be an over-exaggeration to keep him from hooking the ball.

What did that guy say to Burns on the par 3?

Found this. Basically turned himself from a big push-draw to playing a fade https://www.google.com/amp/s/golf.com/instruction/alex-noren-swing-thought/amp/

How tall is she? Kutcher looks like he's 16" taller than her.
