Is everyone gone? I can run around in my underwear then

I'm back, did I miss anything?

 

Guess not.

The event was great, the course was really difficult and the scores showed it. It didn't look like a traditional US Open course, but everyone had the same card to fill out. Personally, I would like to see these courses held for the British Open... but you gotta play the hand you're dealt.

I think the consensus with the players is if they would reseed all the greens like they did 7 and 13 with all fescue they wouldn't mind coming back. I just think greens should be a perfect putting surface not a mixture of bare sand spots and little spiked weeds.

I tend to agree. The greens on 7 and 13 looked like "real greens" and I am sure were just fast, smooth greens as they should be. The pros ask for consistent more than anything from the practice putting green to the course and through all 18 holes. I don't blame them for at least wanting that much. I would want the same when I played. Just makes me wonder how much better the telecast would have been to watch if NBC had been doing it. Something was way off there no doubt...

Fox should never be allowed to cover golf again. Horrible coverage. I don't mind the ball tracer once in a while but not on every frikin shot. They rely on that tracer because they haven't figured out how to follow the ball in flight like NBC and CBS. And what was that awkward Holly interview standing 10 feet apart in front of a giant screen 5 seconds after a player finishes a round ? Edited by alphseeker

The Holly "thing" was terrible. Not a fan of hers anyway. Folks think she is so hot but I can do without her. Terrible interviews...

yep - not a fan either. It reminded me of their NFL coverage - Just stick some hottie down on the field to interview coaches and players. Stupid
