Phoenix Open

[Richard]

Anybody ever been to the Phoenix Open ?

It looks like lot's of fun this week, can't believe the noise on 16, Phil missed two sots in a row yesterday, 9-iron tee shot and then the chip. Looked like the crowd there messed him up.

#16 is becoming "old" :(
...it was GREAT 10 years ago when Tiger put it on the map.

That ace was incredible the roar was so loud. Even the speakers on my tele crackled.

The 16 probably isn't for everyone. It's not really a "golf" crowd there -- it's a bunch of partying university students having a good time. I'm not a fan of it myself, but it can be fun to watch once a year.

Did anyone see Phil's caddy give the kid and his dad Superbowl tickets? A nice gesture ... though it did seem a little staged. Phil was asked about it afterwards, and said, "How did you hear about that?" Well, Phil, we had a freakin' camera two feet away from Bones. Ya think we were on to you? I don't think the giveaway was a stunt -- just the feigned ignorance.

Yup he's as phony as a $3 bill and that's why he's not a popular guy in the locker room.

The FBR is a fun event. True indeed, its not really a purist golf crowd - there are lots of people there "to be seen." Lots of people go because its something to do and a place to go. Get away from all the junk, its a good tournament and fun to experience.

I'm sure Poulter & Sabbatini like him! :rolleyes::eek:

With the playoff, and possiblity he might have won, I don't think HE would have made it across town to the game! (I think that's why a lot of people left before the playoff, so they could get home/to the game/to a bar) for kickoff! :cool:

I actually felt sorry for J.B. and the others in his group -- they would have come to 16 expecting the circus, and seen empty stands. An "all right, less pressure ... but what are we, dog meat?" moment.
