And I was surprised at that because it really, it's a beautiful green to hit a cut into it with a wood and feed it down to pretty much every hole location.

But maybe yesterday's, which is in this back wing.

And then a number 11.

You know what's interesting about the draw?

Yeah.

Yeah.

yeah there's no question that's that's why some of them are doing it um but i again i was still shocked how many that was their predominant shot shape um uh say young kim used it a lot and uh and it's not typically a good golf course for a draw a right-hander's draw but um you know she obviously didn't phase her because she was right there to the end um so yeah so so that was one thing on one that was interesting to see because now it's just a three wood

um and uh and um six iron seven iron and uh they a lot of guys also hit it into the where the merchandise tent was and the media tent in the practice the old practice fairway and the fan village early in the week

All of the sort of Riviera locals that I know, we were all looking at it like, what is the USGA doing?

They're going to get bombarded over there.

That's where the third of the shots seems like the men are over there.

Partly because you're nervous on the first tee.

Sometimes people just flail one out.

Second hole, for whatever reason, they always go right.

Everybody's...

You have all the world to the left.

But anyway, the women hit it much straighter, and there were very few balls over there.

So that was USGA's view, is that they just hit it straighter.

But the par 5 11th, they played from the same tee as the men.

And knowing that there was going to be a good helping sea breeze, no Santa Ana winds,
