Alert: snarkiness and "meanness," adult content may follow:
- the Augusta, Georgia, golf tournament delayed two hours due to weather; I just tuned in at 9:24 a.m. CT;
- first three things I noted:
- opened with a "woke" advertisement
- in the practice area: lots of spitting and no masks by anyone other than a few officials
- no live video from the course; only video of the star of the show practicing driving
And, so we move in. It's going to be a long day.
Later: not an auspicious start. Weather delay: two hours. Later starters did not finish their first round today. I watched some of it. Overall: incredibly boring.

Now living in Aiken SC, across river from Augusta and local hospitality businesses taking it in the shorts due to lack of crowds.
ReplyDeleteAlso learned there are local folks will lease their homes for big $$$$ for Augusta week and go on vacation. Kinda like a private Airbnb set up.
Gotta love capitalism- any way you can make a buck, make a buck
They do that in Sturgis, SD, for the Sturgis (Motorcycle) Rally, also. Folks rent out their homes for the two weeks and leave town.
