With the #USOpen a week away, here's a comparison of the men's tournament schedule route vs a route optimized for min travel distance. A player competing in every tournament would travel 2,929 mi / 4,713 km under the current schedule, compared to 1,653 mi / 2,660 km if optimized

During SB Week in the SF Bay Area, I had the pleasure of working an @InspireChange event where Skyler Fulton & I walked students through Combine drills/data. As an Oakland native, it was a dream to give back to students from my community by sharing both my profession & passion.
