The Memorial and Social Media

If you haven't guessed by the art department's latest creation by now, I'll be on-site at The Memorial Tweeting, hosting chats and offering up some on-site media reports as part of the tournament and new sponsor Nationwide's push to take social media coverage to another level.

If you are on-site, stop by the digital media house near the driving range. We've already had some great guests (video highlights forthcoming), interactive stuff and of course, if nothing else, it's a great place to check your email, send a tweet, charge your phone or take cover for the, uh, rain on the off, off, off, off chance this event gets hit with a freak spring shower.

As for Muirfield Village, I've only had a little time to walk around and Paul B. Latshaw's world-renowned conditioning is as stunning as you expect.

I'll be curious to see how the sophomore year for the par-3 16th--which debuted to player complaints in 2011--goes now that the green is more mature. From the limited number of shots I watched when it was playing downwind in practice, the griping will continue and is justifiable. The green looks like it would be great fun to play to from about 40 yards right of the current tee and from about a yardage 40 yards shorter than the 201 yards it plays as. Other than that, I loved it.

Anyway, tournament updates will be steady all day through Twitter with the usual golf coverage here at the blog.
