  1. To equal playing conditions the maintenance crew can quickly cut and roll the greens between morning and afternoon tee times. Lots of talk about “fresh greens” by Mickelson at Pebble.

    Never heard that before. I think Phil has too much time on his hands. The maintenance crews would have to cut fairways and greens. They can't reproduce sun angle, wind or temps so I doubt Phil's idea will get any mileage.

    I'm in two minds on this: as a player, I'd love to play on freshly prepped greens in the afternoon, as a former golf course employee, possibly a logistics nightmare with golfers and fans everywhere on the course, not to mention an even more grueling work schedule on top of what tournament prep already entails.

    Just to clarify though, the Tour typically only double tees on Thurs/Fri, right?

    Not sure that is at all practicable.

    If Phil wants to talk about the grass height, gran, sun angle or moisture factor, he should call Bryson DeChanbeau.

    Golf is played on grass and grass grows...early/late or late/early tee times probably all balance out in the end.

    After hearing Phil babble about things nobody else is concerned about for years now, I'm beginning to think he talks too much. End of story...
  9. Fully agree that Phil has too much time on his hands and that golf is played on grass no matter how it grows or cut.
  10. Agree with you all but that video of him driving up Magnolia lane talking trash about Kuchar and ‘dropping bombs’ is classic

    Poor Phil...
    He should have to putt on the same stuff as the rest of us.

    Phil’s a fool. Idk why anyone would care to listen to him at all.
