"I'm confident we'll be fine with this."

Ron Green Jr. doesn't sound too wild about the decision to make next month's Wyndham Championship the guinea pig for possibly allowing fans to bring cell phones to all tour events, but as horrible as the attendance has been I don't see how the tour can afford not to try it.

The best golf tournament/cell phone policy has been something close to what they have at the Masters: Don't even think about it.

But officials at the Wyndham Championship, with the blessing of the tour, are going to see if they can play a tournament with any number of smart phones vibrating in the pockets of the spectators. Good luck.

In theory, it should work.

"People are going to sneak them in anyway," defending Wyndham champion Ryan Moore said Tuesday. "It's adults. If you let people bring them out there, they'll probably respect the fact you did and they'll probably use those (designated) areas."
