Was at the back of the range there yesterday and Jonathan Vegas showed up with a young friend and his caddy who I knew.  Watched him hit and then he gave his young frined some pointers, was standing right there with them so it was like getting a private lesson from a tour pro!  We were the only people on that part of the range

[StupidLittleWhiteBall]

Pictures look great. I can't wait to go to the practice round Tuesday.  Is there a way to find out the practice schedule for the day?  I am trying to catch Tiger's practice round.

[raywutang]

im guessing that cantlay signed a deal with titleist since hes carrying one of their staff bags.  good for both parties!

Nice!

Great pictures.

Those are some seriously fast greens.

The Pros can tee it up whenever they want so there is no set schedule.  If past history holds true to form, Tiger will be teeing it up around 6:30 - 7 am tomorrow but no way to know for sure.

Were you able to record some video of this? Any pointers you heard or saw that you can share? Thanks

[OB ReT Hit 3]

Noticed 2 Tm burner TP 07 3 woods.  Piercy and Huh.  Could be one of the best 3 woods of all time.

Ive seen that Callaway X utility prototype in JJ Killeen's bag as well as Ernie's recently.
I know these aren't on the market, but i'd love to have one.
Anyone know if theres a way to get one?

[ngohiong]

Great photos. Anyone know when the gates open to the public Tuesday?

That's what the members need for the course to hold its own. Rory chewed it up last year. Aronimink is a better venue, IMO

[kakashi54]

hope Patrick Cantlay has a good one he struggled last week in first round but had a good second i think this kid will have a solid career

[Goldenhawk]

Hunter Mahan will be taking a break from the action Tuesday night.  He'll be at Golfdom in Tyson's Corner from 6:00 to 7:30 for a meet and greet, autos and pics.  The first 50 people get free Ping hats and autographed pics.

I'm going Friday and Sat. I'm super pumped. Went for 2 years at CC, then the 1st year at Aronimink. I didn't make it last year. Always a good event, and a pretty good player turnout.

When Golf Week reported on the rumors of Cantlay turning pro at the US Open, they said it was rumored he was going to sign a deal with Callaway.

Thanks for locating my next hat!

Man, I wanted so badly to go to this but won't be able to get out of work this week. Great pics.

[J-Tizzle]

So the skinny guy in the part 2 pictures with the Titleist and Oakley on (sorry, name is slipping my mind at the moment), is that putter a Corza thats been reshafted, because the mid length Corza's I've seen are center shafted.

And I guess I can't tell, but is that a double bend shaft they have installed in that putter or a single bend (I ask because I've got the putter head at home and I'm always looking for a project and Golfmsmith has both for order)...

Good to see Pamps with the OA on his bag...

HAHA, loved seeing Randy's smiling face with a fan...great rep for Graphite Design..

[dbleagle69]

Nice pictures as always, however, what is the problem with tues part 2 and 3? Part 1 keeps coming up! Can we get a mechanic to fix it

You actually have to click on just the "2" and "3" in the attached link and they come up (put your cursor just on the number you see it is highlighted...2012 AT&T National Pictures - Tuesday, Part2).

Funny set of pics in Tuesday Part 1.  Scrolling down it shows a sign with the sponsors and the very next pic is of the practice green, giving the illusion that there is one huge sign just off the practice green.  I thought, man that must be distracting - but they are two separate pictures.

[mrfullwm]

Great pics as always!  Two questions:

1) What kind of grips does KJ Choi have on his irons?  They look like Golf Pride but I wasn't sure what the logo at the bottom of the grip was.
2) Who's alligator skin shoes were those near the bottom of the Tuesday Part 2 pics?
