Christmas in October Classic spilles på Nicklaus GC. Banen er selvsagt designet av Jack Nicklaus. Et godt tegn? Kallenavnet Bjørnen og vår mann heter Bjørnstad
In Jack's words, "We have not forced or tried to create features that aren't natural to the site. Therefore, our landforms are very broad, bunkers are deep, but relatively simple in shape and the entire site flows very naturally. We have taken into consideration the Kansas winds by careful placement of the tees, width of fairways, and the openings into the greens. Every golfer will have fun and that's what it is all about."
Par 72, 7251 yards. Noen par 5 hull på 560 yards +, flere par 4 på 440+. HB takler det meste for tiden.
Han gjør det skarpt på driving og GIR. Forrige uke puttet han bra. Gjør han det også denne uken? Forresten artig at Cramtpon har HB som et av sine "expert tips". Har hatt HB med før og har helt klart stor tro på ham.
Han slår ut 7.50 am lokal tid, skulle bli 14.50 norsk tid hvis jeg ikke tar helt feil.
7:50 am Killeen, J.J. Burns, Bob Bjornstad, Henrik
Tar selvsagt også med pengelisten.
