So, I gotta tell you about my little adventure trying to get those BMW tee times for Friday. I woke up bright and early, ’cause, you know, the early bird gets the worm, or in this case, the best tee times. I jumped out of bed, grabbed my phone, and started my quest.
First things first, I hit up the PGA TOUR website. I figured, who better to tell me about tee times than the folks running the show? I browsed around and found some info that said the second round of the BMW Championship starts at 9:25 am ET on Friday, August 23. Good start, but I needed more.
I’m not gonna lie, I felt like a detective on a mission. I remembered hearing somewhere that the whole shebang kicks off on Thursday, September 8th, and wraps up on Sunday, September 11th. Okay, so that’s the when, but I needed the specifics for Friday. I kept digging, tapping, and scrolling.
Then I saw something about the right clothes. They said golf clothes are a good idea, but jeans are cool too, and comfy shoes are a must since it’s all about walking. Alright, noted. I’m picturing myself strolling around, looking like I know what I’m doing, even if I’m just there for the vibes and maybe to catch a glimpse of Rory McIlroy if he’s around.
Here’s what I managed to put together:
- The BMW Championship is a big deal, and everyone wants a piece of the action.
- Round 2 starts at 9:25 am ET on Friday, which means I need to be on my A-game to get a decent time.
- The whole event runs from Thursday the 8th to Sunday the 11th of September, so it’s a weekend full of golf.
- I need to look the part, so I’ll dig out some golf-ish clothes, or maybe just jeans, and definitely my comfiest walking shoes.
My Game Plan
So, my plan was to be ready to book those tee times as soon as they became available. I set alarms, I made notes, and I kept my eyes peeled on the website. It felt like a bit of a treasure hunt, but I was determined to get those times.
After all that, let me tell you, it was a bit of a rollercoaster. There were moments of “Yes, I got this!” and moments of “Wait, what am I doing?” But in the end, I managed to secure a pretty sweet tee time for Friday. It wasn’t the earliest one, but it was good enough for me. I felt like a champ, even though I hadn’t even swung a club yet.
So yeah, that’s my story about trying to book those BMW tee times for Friday. It was a bit of an adventure, a bit of a challenge, but all in all, a good time. And hey, at least I know what to wear now, right?
