[ Note: This post is late. Usually this post was suppose to be published on Monday of this week. However, I have been behind schedule all of this week. So am publishing this post on Thursday evening. ]

The US PGA Tour goes from the nation's capital (Washington D.C.) to the heart of the mid-west for the John Deere Classic.
