Tiger...Or Is It Bigfoot Spotted At Chambers Bay?

/

First there was a jet sighting, then several blurry photos, and then a long distance shot of something resembling a standing, two-legged being inhabiting a Chambers Bay fairway. Further analysis determined it to be of human origin and most definitely Tiger Woods scouting the 2015 U.S. Open host site. Phil Mickelson was also spotted sneaking in some golf but got a much better weather day.

Safe to say you can add Tiger to the list who have made the cross-country trek to the remote lands of University Place. And mercifully, we've gotten the two biggest scouting trips out of the way.

Callaway Live At 6 PM Pacific Time Monday: You've Been Warned

Callaway's new Live show hosted by Harry Arnett kicked off with a wonderful half-hour chat involving broadcasting legend Dick Enberg, who sounds as good as ever.

Episode 2 at a TopGolf featured some great visuals but audio problems that turned several people into Marcel Marceau impersonators, an issue I know won't be replicated Monday from Callaway's Carlsbad headquarters when yours truly steps into the Lion's Den.

And yes, technology questions are on the table, which should make this awkward...in a fun way!

Here's the link. And it should be viewable on all devices.

I'm not sure bringing a a USGA President into the booth of an MLB game with his searsucker and hurling his "Jr." designation is the way to cool-up the U.S. Open's move to Fox, but then there I go again thinking this is about the golf instead of branding the USGA!

Sure, Brad Faxon, who loves his Red Sox and could do baseball banter with the announcers while promoting the upcoming debut telecast from Chambers Bay would have been the logical choice. But Brad's not on the Executive Committee and just months from becoming even more irrelevant than ever!

I can't embed the full response because of Squarespace's inability to fix Twitter issues and I'm limited in the number of obscenities visually available in a month, but you can view the Fox fan's reaction to having their compelling Dodgers-Cardinals game interrupted here. But here's a sampling (thanks reader Sean for spotting):
