OPC, The reason Justice paid out is because this is a new tournament and he wants it to continue to grow. The first golf pro at the Greenbrier was Sam Snead and the current (Celebrity) pro is Tom Watson. They have hosted golf tournaments on many levels and now they are hosting a PGA event. The first year the course layout was too easy (Hence Stuarts 59!) but they have lengthened and strengthened the course every year. I have played there and I can attest that it is a challenging course and a wonderful resort.

Than being said, you are correct in that Tiger and Phil do not add new tournaments to their schedule very often and that makes their willingness to play the Greenbrier a little unusual. (Although Phil stunk up the place last year too!)

Just a West Virginian taking up for West Virginia. I know you did not mean any disrespect but some may take it that way. Great course, great resort and soon to be a great tournament if they continue to improve!!
