Muirfield. So Riviera and Muirfield Village are two, but the reason for that is even more important. I mean, these are great golf courses, but also who is hosting the event. You know, Tiger and Jack.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was able to win at Bay Hill, but not while Ernie was around, so it would be great to win both tournaments while they were both alive and active.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s going to be a few more years until Tiger&#8217;s event.
