Man, this tournament isn't getting much love from the WRX crowd. No play by play or color commentary? Word is there's a tournament of sorts next week. Is everyone saving their chops for that one?

 

My hope for this tourney is for one of the big names i.e. Spieth or Fowler to have an impressive showing and potentially win. The more big names playing great going into the Masters the more entertaining the events of next week are going to be!

Was holding out hope earlier this year that Tiger might make an appearance since he needed tournament reps. He hasn't played in Houston since the TPC in '99.

 

I believe he played at Champions in 2003 for the Tour Championship.

If the Houston Open moves to a different course, I wonder where they might go. Champions again? If they want to get Tiger, the best way to do it would be move the tournament to his course in Montgomery County. Not sure the place could handle the crowds though.

 

 

 

What course in Montgomery County? Are you talking about The Woodlands course where it used to be played?

 

Sadly I will not be making it out. While running Tuesday I must have re injured my sciatic nerve or possibly that muscle in my right front hip area. I could barely walk yesterday without severe pain. Been laying around since. Living on Advil. Lol. No way I could do it tomorrow. Too bad, my good friends have box seats on 16. Oh well, just glad I'm feeling a little better. Dang I must be getting old.

That would sure be close to me but traffic would be a nightmare. Not far from Rennesaince Festival so maybe with shuttles it wouldn’t be so bad.

Anyone know if you can buy general admission tickets at the gate or locally at a store? (HEB sells Valero tickets).!

My computer just took a dump and I cant print.

 

 

 

 

 

I am having no luck online. Their website just shows an online purchase. In years past they sold grounds tickets at Shell Stations. But last few times I bought at front gate. 2014 was last time I went. You would think they could do a better job getting the word out. Sorry I can’t help more. I would just drive out there, maybe you can call.

You can just buy GA tickets at the gate, super easy. Park at IAH remote lot and take a shuttle. Parking fee is separate from golf ticket.

There seems to be far fewer idiots attending this tournament. Quite a refreshing change.
