So can I change out Tom Kim for JJ Spaun? I thought it was crazy to have Kim so low, but I don’t know how he’s been playing lately.

As long as JJ Spaun isn't listed elsewhere as "Jiz Spaun"

You're watching golf right now. JJ has a -5 on the 17th.

You big fat cheater.

On a side note, I may be in Mesquite next week golfing. If I do, are you interested?
I'll be with two guys that I used to be pretty close with, but not so much now.

JJ likely to finish at -2.

3 over on the back.

I’ve already committed to golfing Wednesday and will be spending more than I’m used to. While I’m extremely tempted, courses down there are still pretty pricey this time of year. If you want to come up Tuesday (my only other day off) we might be able to find something up here, although it’s green punching time, so many courses may be closed or not perfect greens.

Btw, had no idea that I was playing well, but know he went to a playoff with Rory earlier this season.

It's alright, I certainly understand that work comes first!!!

If I come down, I will travel from Touchet, WA to Las Vegas, arriving around 10:30pm. If the people in PHX don't want to drive up to golf somewhere in Mesquite or Vegas, I'll just head to PHX Wednesday.

MAybe the next time through.

And I usually don't play nice courses either. I try to keep it under $50 a round, unless it's special.

Lowry 45
Rose 30
Fitzpatrick 20
Straka 15
Kizzer -10

I have to get my pick in today because I'm hitting the road.
