It was a lot squirrely in CA but looked a lot tighter in FL the past several days. That Copperhead course looks like a right bastard plus this was Woods’ first time playing the vent. Plus the field looked like it had the throw-weight of a Major. I was pretty impressed with his performance, especially on the greens where the rubber really meets the road.
Ditto performance playing a new course in competition. I think there is a fairly new rule that players have to play a course every 5 years unless injured or lost their card. He was suppose to play a tourney or 2 in the wrap around season before his back went out.
