We're playing the best public-access option in Pinellas on Sunday, a 10:30am start at Seminole Lake. It's a solid old-school Florida layout... pretty flat with pushed up greens and lots of bunkering. Built in 1962 by Chic Adams who also designed Diamond Hill — a property and layout that couldn't be any more different.
Unfortunately, Seminole Lake is in high demand so there are no deals to be had and we have to go out after their members. Such is the state of golf at the moment.
It looks like mid to high handicaps excel here, as the firm greens rack up strokes for everyone at an equal clip. Gorecki won last year by 5 strokes (he was getting 27). This makes Topor the early betting favorite if he can play smart, avoid the numerous lakes and OB boundaries, and not physically overheat.
The weather looks dry and hopefully overcast.
We're going out in order of Skins Handicap this week, with guests sprinkled in as needed.
See you Sunday.
