OT - Colonial GC

[Frozen Frog]

Nope.

There are some using a gravel base instead of concrete and we still have the road in for heavy equipment between 1 fairway and 6 green across 9 etc

But no more concrete from my understanding

Thank you!

Recycling a golf thread for today's final of the Memorial Tourny.
Scottie wins another! It was a nail-biter as he was +2 today. He won by 1 stroke.
Almost $1.7 million. Not bad.

Try $4 Million for winning today.

Try $4 Million for winning today.

That's what I get for believing Twitter.

Don't believe Twitter.

That's what I get for believing Twitter.

It’s a “signature “ series event so the purse is $20 mil and the winner gets $4 mil

That is the issue with Colonial - we can never be a signature based on being wedged between PGA, Memorial and the US Open

So our purse is a lot lower and the winner gets below $2 mil

A lot of the best will skip Colonial to get some time off in the 5-6 week run

We have benefited from Jordan and Scottie being from DFW but the hottest guys won’t always be Texans

in case any of you are interested - Smylie did a long version of his podcast with Gil Hanse and Ryan Palmer back to back about Colonial right before the tourney.

Ryan was pretty funny - it was pure vintage Ryan with all the stories.
