Blown off course: PGA Tour’s Hyundai Tournament of Champions rounds 1 & 2 scheduled For Monday
PGA Tour – Hyundai Tournament of Champions
Kapalua, Maui, Hawaii
The winds on Maui have been gusting up to 50 miles per hour, a great day in Scotland. Balls are blowing off the greens, tees and moving around during player’s swings. And players are being blown right out of their swings. The conditions are not conducive to fair golf so the PGA Tour once again, after postponing round one Friday then Saturday, has moved it to Monday morning. Round two will follow in the afternoon Monday.
Any scores posted before Monday are wiped clean. They’re starting over. This is of course, based on the assumption that the weather conditions Monday are favorable.
Monday PGA Tour Hyundai Tournament of Champions TV Schedule
Round 1 and 2 Live Coverage 4-11 p.m. ET – Golf Channel
First round of Hyundai Tournament of Champions cancelled. Take two Saturday.
Due to winds in excess of 42 miles per hour and rain, the opening round of the 2013 PGA Tour season has been cancelled. Any holes played by players Friday will be cleared and play will start over Saturday.
Commentary
This is not cool. I was planning on enjoying some warm weather and golf vicariously. It is 8 degrees here right now.
2013 PGA Tour Season Begins This Week! Hyundai Tournament of Champions
Bubba Watson headlines this week’s field
Usually I put the quote “set your DVR” at the font of these posts. But since the Hyundai Tournament of Champions is in Hawaii, the live broadcast (starting Friday) is in prime time. See TV times below.
The PGA Tour season starts this week at the Plantation Course at Kapalua, in Kapalua, Maui, Hawaii. This is an event open to winners on the 2012 PGA Tour, resulting in a field of 30. This 72 hole stroke play event is a no-cut affair which usually produces some of the longest drives of the year with the elevation changes and prevailing winds at Kapalua. Fun golf for TV.
Tournament Info
- Purse: $5.7 million

- Defending Champion: Steve Stricker

Welcome to the third and final segment of the Hooked On Golf Blog Year in Review for 2012. In this piece I’m highlighting a few blog posts from each of the final three months of 2012 as I’ve done in the HOG YIR 1 and HOG YIR 2. You can click the heading of the month to see that month’s archives, or the links within each summary.
The biggest news of the YEAR for me was the birth of my son Seve Anthony. Yes, his name was inspired by Seve Ballesteros. Little Seve has been nothing but a joy. SO thankful.
A shark fell from the sky onto a golf course, and it wasn’t Greg Norman.
Rumors started circulating that Rory McIlory was moving to Nike golf equipment. There’s an announcement coming from Nike on January 7th.
TaylorMade announced their new RocketBladez clubs.
HOG ran a Facebook contest which awarded some cool shirts to the winners.
Oh yeah, I commented on the USA Ryder Cup team’s meltdown at Medinah.
November 2012 – 21 PostsHuge news in November. Golf’s governing bodies, the USA and R&A, banned anchored putting.
Heated debates raged over changes being made to the Old Course at St. Andrews. Too late. The changes were already happening.
I reviewed an awesome HEATED golf rain jacket. Battery included.
On a sad note, I lost a golf buddy who I’d played 100’s of rounds of golf with. RIP Dave Shields.
I was featured, with weak short game, on PGA.com’s Free Lesson Friday.
The long awaited Hooked On Golf Blog Golf Turkey of the Year Awards posted on 12/3.
Miguel Angel Jimenez, the wine drinking-cigar smoking golfer from the European Tour, broke a leg skiing. Fortunately the cigar made it unscathed.
The weather turned bad here. Snow. Won’t golf locally for likely a few months.
Tom Watson was named as the 2014 Ryder Cup USA team captain.
I reviewed one of the sweetest wedges in the universe, the New Wedge Series by Miura Golf. Then I interviewed Miura’s President Adam Barr.
No big surprise, Rory McIlory was named PGA Tour Player of the Year.
The last and final Q-School EVER, graduated to the PGA Tour.

Fresh off the editing room floor, I’ve pieced together the video highlights of the annual Christmas Classic Golf Tournament. This is a Christmas Day tournament which only happens if the golf course is closed. At 2:00PM Christmas Day the 18th tee is open for any and all competitors to show up and hit their “12 balls of Christmas.” Closest to the pin is champion for the year. Enjoy! You’ll never guess who wins this year…
