Saturday could see gusts over 20 mph and Sunday is looking like light winds all day.

Even though it's a small field, there are still two distinct waves.

It's not going to be big, but looka pretty clear that the PM/AM wave should enjoy some advantage. Thursday winds are light, so should be pretty fair between waves. Friday afternoon looks like it could be tough; winds are up and the course will be the firmest it has been all week.

I don't think it's a big enough advantage that we need to stack, but you can if you want. I would just use it as a tiebreaker, and give an edge to PM/AM golfers.

Weather for the @MemorialGolf:

No rain lately and subair systems in the greens, should be firm and fast. Some rain expected Saturday night, but probably not enough to make the greens soft. Highs in the 80s with mostly cloudy skies. Winds light all day on Thursday. Friday starts with 10 mph gusts that build to 15-20 mph gusts by the end of the day.
