What is the course information for Muirfield Village? Golf legend Jack Nicklaus’ design and home is a course that took the great years to perfect. Now it attracts one of the strongest fields in a regular PGA Tour event due to the stature of the host and the quality of the golf course. One of the main features of the tournament is a yearly induction ceremony honouring past golfers. A plaque for each honouree is installed near the clubhouse at Muirfield. As you would expect, the course demands accurate hitting and shot-shaping with a premium on course-management where the wind swirls through the trees, bringing strategic bunkering and water hazards into play.
What is the predicted weather for the 2019 Memorial Tournament? Thunderstorms expected during Thursday's opening round which could cause delays and soften the course for the remaining rounds lowering overall scores. Mostly sunny through rounds two and three with cloud cover expected during the final round. Temperatures consistently around 20c throughout the week.
THE HISTORY
Testament to Nicklaus’ course design, the lowest ever winning total stands at 20 under par (set in 1994) and only twice since then has anyone come within one stroke of matching the score, demonstrating the course's perfect blend of spectator entertainment and maximum drama. This is verified with four playoffs in a five-year span from 2014 with the average winning margin of just 1.2 strokes since 2009.
