SWEEEET....I'm in

The Masters would be my pick. League and I would be getting those letters on the same day

The Tournament I would most like to win above all others is the WSOP, not even for the financial benefits, which would be nice. Just give me a seat at the tables.

Without a doubt, it would be the Masters.

Just being on the course would be a thrill, walking in the footsteps of some of the greatest golfers ever to live.

Big surprise, Cole! I kinda miss your Masters avatar.

When is your trip to Bethpage Black?

It just opened today.

I would say if you want to get somewhat close to a US Open experience, go in June. You will get thick rough, waist-high "hay", and perfect fairways and greens. I take it you are going to play the back tees, since you are a player, and you are coming all this way. Practice your driving and long irons...bring your power game!

Thanks for the info. June is perfect, for me.

Good thing, I like hitting long irons.

The Masters, and I can't believe anyone hasn't given this reason yet, but because of the exclusiveness and things like the Champions Dinner. To be able to say I ate dinner with every living Masters champion at one time would be inexplicable. And to have my own locker in the Champions Locker Room with my Green Jacket in there would be cool. Overall, it's just the most exclusive tournament for winners.

The Open Championship. Would love to hear myself pronounced "Champion Golfer for the Year." Troon or Turnberry, please.

I haven't researched this, but I once heard that the PGA Championship field is the toughest field (of the 4 majors) to beat. Possibly what I heard was hype and not fact?

2008 US Open at my home course, Torrey Pines. Then again, my 78 average won't even get me into the first stage qualifiying!! Maybe I will get to Marshall a hole.
