Harding to host 2009 President's Cup

As the article notes, they will reroute the holes so that the "signature holes" (yes, plural) will be guaranteed to be in each match.

The routing will be:

Front nine: 10-11-12-13-4-5-6-2-3

Back nine: 14-8-15-16-17-18-1-7-9


Seems reasonable to me although I am not sure if the old 18 is a good match play hole.


OT Question for the Wie Watchers from the article:  Will she be hitting off of mats at the Stanford driving range "just like any other student"?

Any word on , where in the Americas they will hold the 2011 Event ?

The routing will be:

Front nine: 10-11-12-13-4-5-6-2-3

Back nine: 14-8-15-16-17-18-1-7-9

The 3-14-8-15 stretch will be awkward, but six to two is actually a shorter walk than six to seven, as is one to seven instead of one to two (though not by much).

OT Question for the Wie Watchers from the article:  Will she be hitting off of mats at the Stanford driving range "just like any other student"?

I had heard from someone that worked over at the Stanford driving range that Wie was going to be given access to practice at the team facilities.  From the article, I don't know if that's changed or if they are just preventing her from practicing at the same time as organized team practices.

I suspect there are courses nearby that would be more than happy to have Michelle Wie on their grass range, so I don't expect to see her next to me on the mats any time soon.

With her money in the bank I would think she has a membership at Sharon Heights CC and uses that range. I don't see her mingling with the local riff raff.
