Golf At Colonial
posted in My Golf Stories, News |The tournament at The Colonial in Ft. Worth has been in existance for the past 62 years. Ben Hogan won the tournament five times and the course has withstood the test of time and the modern golfer and modern equipment. The course has not been rennovated over and over to protect itself against the 460CC drivers the straight golf ball and the modern grooves.
Phil Mickelson should be able to maneuver his way around the narrow tree lined fairways. The course favors a draw by the right handed player which means that Phil can hit a controled fade. Most of Phil’s misses tend to be to his left.
Kenny Perry who has been playing well of late should be one of the favorites going into this week’s event. Kenny has won at Colonial and the course sets up well for his big draw.
This tournament is one that all of the players want to win. The course is an old traditional style and the players enjoy playing a course that is what you see.
