san diego is like heaven. i should move there.

I hacked it around there about 15 years ago on a weekday (with a SD resident). I don't remember what I payed but I do remember being amazed at how cheap it was for a PGA tour venue.

Not sure if anyone saw, but the US Open contest about a 10 handicap not being able to break 100 on the course. John Atkinson (8.2 index) shot 114 last friday at Torrey Pines

The 39yo gentleman also has stage IV inoperable lung cancer....and never smoked.

Not bad for Romo considering the course set-up.

No birdies between the 4 of them and it took 6 hours and 15 minutes to play.

I had a round of 6:08 recently. Nearly snapped my putter and impaled myself on it to put myself out of my own misery.

Rangers were comatose. I won't be visiting that course any time soon.
