The preparation for this week started last Saturday in Las Vegas. After missing the cut at the Justin Timberlake, I met Kevin Saturday morning and we went out to the TPC Las Vegas for some practice. On Sunday, we flew over to San Jose early, drove down to the club and had another practice session before spending the afternoon watching some football. Kevin is making a small adjustment with his ball position and also fiddling around with his putting grip so the two days were spent trying to work on those few adjustments.
Monday morning we played a nine hole practice round with Garrett Willis before the afternoon pro-am and then spent the afternoon practicing. Tuesday we played with Boo Weekley, Scott Brown and Steven Bowditch. Kevin's ball striking is solid but he's still not satisfied with the putter. After putting most of the year with a cross-handed grip, Kevin seems to be hitting his lines better with a conventional (right hand low) grip. We continued to work on it after lunch and he will decide today what we will go with on Thursday. After the putting session, we finished the day with some range work and then short game. We had a solid eight hour day and then Kevin capped it off with a late day workout when we finished.
Today (Wednesday), Kevin decided to have an afternoon practice session. We will meet up after lunch and go through our normal Wednesday practice routine. We tee off on Thursday at 1:20 with Erik Compton and Matt Marshall.
