Lots of great news heading into this one:

- Its at Pebble. This course is so damn beautiful I went out and bought a mega HD TV just for this event. Say what you want about capitalism, but $400 for a 55 inch TV that looks like virtual reality?

- CBS is not covering this event. FOX is, and they have surprisingly good golf coverage. No word on whether there will be a Holly Sonders appearance.

- Loaded field with great storylines.

A note on all the player bitching at the US Open: get over yourselves you pampered babies. You're playing for $12,500,000, sorry if its hard.

Brooks Koepka has adopted the Tom Brady / Patriots strategy of saying nobody believes in them when literally everyone does. Brooks is the betting favorite but since he was only in 3 of the 4 FOX promos for the event he's enraged. By the way, Brooks on people complaining: "if you hit it in the fairway then hit it on the green there is nothing to complain about." Solid quote. Look for his very obnoxious gf Jenna Sims to weasel her way into the frame this weekend.

Tiger won't get a better chance to win a major than this: short course that puts a premium on iron play that he knows well.

Rory is on a heater. DJ is lurking. Spieth, Rickie, Adam Scott, Cantlay, Rahm, Rose. So many great players. My sleepers are Xander Schauffele and Henrik Stenson.

In theory, this course should be great for Hefty. But he continues to be hyper focus on hitting BOMBS, which will take him out of this one. Love his new found social media presence, though!

Oh, and it is all in PRIMETIME. Should be fun.

Counterpoint: Fox employs Joe ****ing Buck.

I just flipped on the Golf Channel to get some eye candy and Brandel Chamblee is quoting Albert Einstein, wtf.

If there is, you can bet it will be a full-on tits profile pose. Every ****ing time! And I won't promise not to rage about it when I see it. Not that I'm against tits or anything ...

I personally think Amanda Balionis is better looking and has more talent
I kind of hope Koepka wins beating Tiger by one stroke. Hoping the rough is sooooo deep

Prime time golf is the best. we don't usually get that out here on the West Coast.

Should be an awesome tourney at Pebble Beach.

Any of u olds remember playing the original PGA Tour Golf game on the Sega Genesis?

i just remember that one course called "Sterling Shores" was actually Pebble Beach. Guess EA couldn't buy the rights to use the name. yeah cool story bro I know.

oh, and u can still play that game online for free (if u can figure out the controls):

Fox is the best coverage AINEC. Unfortunately, somehow golf is the only sport to allow broadcasters from other networks to broadcast events and that means we get the WOAT Azinger as a commentator.

Hopefully the afternoon winds that can be really nasty on the Central Coast in late spring/summer stay away for the next few days. The year that Tom Kite won they were brutal.

damn right i remember (and thx for the link). in the later releases, i really liked the Crans-sur-Sierre course. think my best round across all the games was a 57 on that course. PGA West was the toughest course.

I'm getting super into golf and been dabbling in low stakes DK lineups. This week I got DJ, Snedeker, Stenson, Dechambeau, Simpson and Leishman in there. Makes for a fun sweat. Always rooting for Spieth and Tiger to make it to the final day though

What's the expected winning score?

Some guys seem to be going low early but too early to tell

One might argue that Westwood made a choice not to push some other player out of the qualifier.
