They will leave Wednesday before the tournament begins. That's when we head for the next stop. If you're out at Annandale today or Wednesday, check out the practice tee. You'll see oversized golf bags filled with drivers, 3-woods and wedges made by all the different companies. You'll see representatives of those club companies standing near the bags.
Club reps, they are called.
They are there to offer their clubs to any player who might want to try them. One pro might walk away from one of those bags with five clubs to try. He tried three or four before he found one he liked that gave him at least the added 10 yards. The TaylorMade 300 Series driver might be the hottest club on tour right now. It's the longest driver out here.
