You're right. I should have noticed the different color flags and that there are *trees* in the distance.

The general surrounds match Willow Creek in Utah where they play the Nationwide event...but the bunkering doesn't match.  Hmmmm!

26 - Old Works (no idea what hole) NO

I don't know Garland.  With all that black slag on the foot path and in the background, that could indeed be Old Works.

Mark?

In full disclosure, my Old Works theory is based ENTIRELY on the black slag.

24 is Four Seasons Aviara, which I admittedly recognized from Tiger Woods golf.  Forget the hole.

26 is the first par 5 at old works.  Hole two or three.

26 is old works.

Oh yeah! The slag just didn't look black enough for me, but that could be lighting/camera

It's that first par 3, perhaps 4?
