Narps Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 For the record I am enjoying the venue and the unique beauty of the place. It will indentify the best player and that is what we are after and I find it entertaining. Chamber of Commerce weather to boot. I also love the prime time aspect of the telecasts. Polar opposite of the "other" Open Championship were you have to set the alarm and hit the snooze once or twice... :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(one day par 4 and next day par 5). Lots of people don't like this year's open and course, but I love it.Bring on da golf. :madra: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The greens are rolling fine. Today's pros are spoiled with unrealistically perfect surfaces. Golf should be a test visially, which these greens are. They roll true, just got to put it on line and have the right pace. Stenson said it was like putting in broccoli...Cry me a river...
