Pay Attention to Mike Glasscott: It’s FREE!


The FESJC opened up for business in 1958. It moved to TPC Southwind in 1989 and was heavily renovated in 2004.
This is the 57th edition of the tournament and moved from par 71 to par 70 following the 2004 edition.
We go back to 2005 for any relevant scoring comparisons.

There have only been seven first-time TOUR winners in 56 previous editions. Interestingly, three of those have happened in the last four years as Dustin Johnson (2010), Lee Westwood (2011) and Harris English have won in their debuts in Memphis.

Since 1993, only Dickie Pride (1994), Harrison Frazar (2012) and English have made the FESJC as their first win on TOUR.

In 56 events, only four, foreign-born players have been victorious. Westwood was the last to accomplish this.
Before him it was Gary Player, Greg Norman and Nick Price.


In the last six seasons, three Sundays have gone to extra holes to determine a winner so maybe another late night of cards for call it asucit.

Harris English, 23, is the youngest champion. He’s only one of three players since the turn of the century to win in his 20s.
He joins Notah Begay and Dustin Johnson.
Woody Austin was 43 when he won in 2007. Jeff Maggert was 42 when he won in 2006.

Since the renovation in 2004, only Justin Leonard (2005, 2008) has multiple victories on this track.

David Toms went fourth, WIN, WIN, second, T10 and third, T37 and second from 2002-2009.
Toms is one of three players (Lee Trevino, 1971-72; Dave Hill 1969-70) to accomplish this.

The course record, since the renovation, is 62, last set by Woody Austin in 2007.
Brian Gay fired 262 (-18) to set the tournament record in 2009.
Gay and Austin (2007) have won this event by five shots, the largest margin of victory.


There have been only four wire-to-wire winners. Between 2001 and 2009 three of those took place.
Brian Gay was the last player to accomplish this.

Jimmy Walker, Patrick Reed and Bubba Watson are the only players on TOUR with multiple victories in the 2013-14 season.
Patrick Reed (added 50's 6 places PP) is the only player of this triumvirate that is teeing it up this week.

You've all heard of Patrick Reed and his comments after winning the WGC-Cadillac Championship in early March.
Reed said after his win, "I feel like I'm one of the top five players in the world.
I feel like I've proven myself," which raised plenty of eyebrows around the golf world.
Reed wasn't lying when he said he has proven himself, winning three PGA Tour events since August, but the bravado he showed was one of the reasons people started raising their eyebrows.

The comments have followed Reed around since his win at Doral - on the Friday at the Masters Bubba Watson, the then leader at 7-under par, took a jab at the 23-year-old. Asked about what he's learned since his Masters win in 2012, Watson gave up this gem of an answer.....

“Learning to be a good dad, learning to be a better husband, it takes time on you, it takes energy,” Watson said.
“And then learning how to refocus, repractice, get back to the level that I think I should be at ... top-25 player in the world.
Not going to say top-five player in the world. Sorry, Patrick Reed.”

And the ten day forecast doesn't contain a day without storms:

Good luck, Slugger.

Just a small team of 15 for openers, Ski.  Confidently expect to be outnumbered by your army.

Westwood, McDowell, Senden, Casey and Horschel of the short ones, by the way.

tourney.....

time will tell, and dusty is a strange one, sometimes his total driving stats are awesome

thats why betfair works so well lol, tho i dont use it....just the forum for you lovely people !

Yo meng. There appears to be some sort of IT issue happening with the forum, only one of your selections is present

Could you please kindly inform us who the rest of your team/army/legion consist of

oh forgot have a few stupid priced ones aswell but only for pennies all on here somewhere.

thats more like it, now if only he wasn't putting like me. tomorrow is another day tho so im all happy chappy for a change

Notable WD's (just for the record)

Matt Kuchar ... He was a late entry, but has elected to take his first week off in the last five.

Kevin Na ... His playoff loss at Muirfield Village came with a perk. He vaulted 30 spots to 40th in the Official World Golf Ranking and will officially qualify for the U.S. Open when the next update is used to help fill the field. The top 60 in the OWGR at the conclusion of the weekend will gain entry.

Seung-yul Noh ... Withdrew after sharing medalist honors at the U.S. Open sectional qualifier in Columbus, Ohio. His 36-hole effort included a hole-in-one.

Charley Hoffman ... Failed to qualify for the U.S. Open at the Columbus, Ohio, sectional, so he'll take two weeks off.

Victor Dubuisson ... Returned to action following a shoulder injury (tendon) and promptly lost in a playoff at the Nordea Masters. Gamers are still trying to wrap their heads around what to expect short- and long-term, but to excel so quickly after taking four weeks off is reason to remain excited.

Erik Compton ... Headed to the U.S. Open via the sectional qualifier in Columbus, Ohio.

Blake Adams ... It would have been his first action since suffering a setback with his hip at the Valspar Championship. Still has 16 starts on a Major Medical Extension.

SUSPENDED

11pm our time is best case scenario. I would think that even if they can only get an hours play in, they will get em out, as there wont be any Monday option this week. And storms forecast right through the weekend. 54 must be more likely than 72 at this stage.

Thanks for that.

Could suit the late starters if they can get their 2nd rds finished tomorrow.

Plus no one went silly low today.

Long cup of tea
