Sitting here watching storms roll in. Looks like the tournament is going to be a mess weather wise. Tickets on the after market are dropping fast. Was hoping it would be a great year after all the other crap that has happened the past two years.

I'll be there Saturday and Sunday but I'm worried about the weather.

Went from wondering what shorts I'll bring to wondering what jackets. Damn.

Local news is saying by 12:00 Saturday will clear up. It is going to be crazy windy though 30 mph winds. Players have already been bitching about the greens?

I know it won’t stop but I’m tired of the players bitching about the course set up. I watch the euro tour and I don’t believe I hear them complain(except Rory) like our guys do. For you older guys that have followed the tour has this always been a thing in the 80s, 90s and early 00s?

I listened to Harry Higgs basically explain it's not that they don't like rough conditions and setups. It's that they were making good shots and were getting punished despite it. I say welcome to golf, these guys are winey because they're just that good

Yeah but Rory is a fricking bitch. I think the only other person I've seen or heard complaining that is of any note is JT and I think that was maybe one time.

Personally, I want to see them struggle. I don't care to watch tournaments where guys shoot -20 like DJ (even as much as I admire DJ as a golfer) at Augusta or the -30s we saw at Kapalua. frick that. That ain't fun to watch every week.

I'm on board for this. Bring on the pain and let's see who can manage.

Lol I'm reporting live from Jax Beach and we're under a tornado watch. But there is a group of baws out here surfing (or trying to).

They just gave a video update. Raining steadily. I can't see them playing any meaningful golf today. Next update in 6 1/2 hours. I'm watching Thursday's coverage I didn't get to watch.

How does this work? They can’t stretch it past Tuesday because of other tournament obligations right?

I just got back from a trip oversees and see they are talking about finishing Monday. What happened? What round is this today? Is everyone on the same round?

This is epic. I have never seen pros have this much trouble except for a few US OPENs and their greens.
