What To Look For: 2017 Safeway Open

The Tour opens the 2017-2018 season at Silverado CC for the Safeway Open.

Given that this is the outlet event and that they just had the Presidents Cup (or as I refer to it as ?The Beatings?) there?S not a sturdy subject for this occasion. The purse is at $6.2 million which isn?T remarkable engaging both.

The path performs to 7,172 yards at a par-seventy two. Generally the course is pretty nicely liked however the vegetables do function quite a few crown and saddle slopes (antique faculty AimPoint speak) and that may frustrate the players with the flatstick.

It?S a massive boy direction for the players because it virtually stresses hitting GIR with lengthy approach shots and then being able to have the short game around the inexperienced to clean up some miscues. The fine characteristic of the route is that the 18th hole is projected to be one of the Critical Holes for the event. It?S also a final ditch effort for people who misplaced their Tour card to regain it.

Projected Winning Score: -16
