I'm kind of glad I didn't get tickets to this. The heat would have had me hanging around the concessions buying $4 bottles of water.

It's fun if you're just going for 1 day. You have enough time to get around and see pretty much everything if you make a day out of it. If you go for the whole weekend it can get tedious, boring and expensive.

"There's an awesome area behind 15 with a bunch of concessions and tables in front of big video board. It's in the middle of like 4 holes. Great place to relax if you're back in that part of the course."

I found this place after waiting in line at the trophy club. Very nice spot. Had a few beers and watched the video board and a few players at 15. The lines are fast here too. Hot as balls on the green area in front of the video board. Probably the only downside.

We just picked up one of the picnic tables and moved it to the shade I think some are anchored to the ground though..

Went for about 5 hours today, had a pretty good time. Spent most of our time around 10/12 green & 11 tee. It's felt good in the shade with a nice breeze. I think I was the only guy there without a polo shirt on, haha.

Overall, I'd rate my first golf tournament experience a 6.5/10.

If you're MK, do you switch gears for the weekend and set a new goal of just playing even par for these last two rounds? Don't shoot at any flags and put it all on your putter to bring you home.

It is a bit dangerous to take your foot off the gas however, because you might be able to reclaim it if somebody gets within striking distance.

the grandstand at 6 where you could see 3/4/5/6 all come together was money.

I sat on the top row of that grandstand all day too. Best spot on the course.

It probably works in Rickie's favor that he'll be playing with Kaymer tomorrow.

rickie will be able to put a little more pressure on kaymer than Todd could today...he's got more big tourney experience from ryder cups and majors. hope he gets going early

I'm not so much anti-Kaymer as I am anti-runaway winner

The most classic tournaments are the ones where there are 4-5 guys with a shot to win on the back 9. That won't happen tomorrow.

Hate to say it, but I have no desire to watch today.

At least watch the front nine.

If Kaymer is a couple over making the turn it could still be a game.

They've moved up the tee at #3 and turned it into a drivable par 4. TV commentators are ripping the decision.

Looks like there are a few 2 and 3's on the board already. There's some birdies out there.

If the course had gotten more rain over the last 4 days this would be an entirely different tournament.

I think it's the 13th instead of the 3rd.
