While the mid 80’s may sound hot to some, for us Arizonans it has been a welcome relief. It was a perfect day for attending the Frys.com open at the Grayhawk Golf Club here in Scottsdale.
We were able to take in some great golfing by some well known golfers such as Davis Love 3, Billy Mayfair and Bob Tway. Many of the names on the pairing sheet I was not familiar with but some of them were playing very well and in the lead. This less well known tournament does not compare to the popular FBR Open (formerly the Phoenix Open) which is scheduled to begin January 26, 2009, but the great course and smaller crowds certainly make viewing much easier.
We first watched some of the pros perfect their swing at the driving range. What swings they have with tremendous distance and repeatability that I could only dream of. Then we walked the along course taking us past holes, both long and short where we could sit down, relax and watch the players show off. They make the sport look so easy even if they were off the green by a tree or in a sand trap! Why is it so frustrating when I try? When we left for the day the leader was local Scottsdale resident Arron Oberholser -11.
Just another day in paradise. The tournament continues through Sunday - if you have the opportuity to get out to enjoy the weather, scenery and golfers, I would highly recommend it!
