    I thought that the Masters was odd given the lack of "patrons" but the real weird thing will be watching the Waste Management Open and the scaled down crowds on the Par 3... It will be nice to hear the crowds cheering as I hear they will have 5,000 visitors each day, but it will certainly not be close to as noisy as it has been. Over all, do you miss the crowds at the tournaments and look forward to seeing them back? Or did you prefer the relative silence and watching players struggle to find their wayward balls like those of us who play at home ?

    I definitely miss the crowds. I wonder if the players will have to adjust themselves again when there are massive crowds allowed once again.

    I will say that the lack of crowds probably had a real impact on winners, especially the majors. The nerves are not as bad without thousands of eyes on you down the stretch. Heck, I blow it at 18 green if there are 6 people on the clubhouse deck finishing a casual Saturday round.

    I haven't seen Speith playing like this for a while. Hopefully he places in the top 10 or better yet wins.

    Must watch to be sure! Three of my favorite players all in the hunt - and great to see Stricker playing so well!

    I can't wait for the crowds to be back. Watching a smattering of fans here and there isn't doing it for the TV coverage. And seeing people outside wearing masks is cringeworthy. Right now, it's just a reminder that the world is still sideways.

    A surprising result to say the least !
    I wonder if it is the new version of the ProV1x Koepka was playing or an earlier model ?? I have to say that his pitch in on 17 for eagle was a 1 in 100 shot, but the Vokey Wedges in his hands were magic on Sunday.

    Where did Koepka come from?!?!?! I did not expect that win from him. I didn't have him in the running.
  10. Watching golf has certainly been interesting. I think I’m in the minority when I say I prefer it without crowds. I find it irritating and distracting with the cheering and the yelling....’get in the hole!’....or ’mashed potatoes!’ I prefer the quiet and watching the players without the noise. At the waste management I didn’t like the heckling the players got on the green at the 17th.....to me it should be left at the par 3 where it’s expected.
