Event and Course Notes

Signature Event, U.S. Open, and now another Signature Event
We could see some fatigue set in for the best players in the world
No cut this week- all golfers are guaranteed to play four rounds
This is one of the shortest courses on the PGA TOUR
Accuracy is more important than distance off the tee
Fairways are wide at 250 yards and narrow at 300 yards
Due to length, this is more a second-shot golf course
Winning score will likely be in the 20-under par range
Any type of golfer can contend here, as seen by past winners

What to Look For

Strokes gained approach
Total driving (accuracy is more important than distance)
Birdie or better %
Strokes gained putting
Bogey avoidance
