This has always confussed me, you got The Master's, The US Open and the PGA in America and only the British Open.

There are more than enough excellent course's in the UK for a second Major or even Europe.

Considering St Andrew's is the home of Golf there should be more over here,

This is not a rant, just my 2 cents

Anybody have any idea's

I completely agree!

Get the pros playing a links course in April with the wind blowing and the ice cold rain! that would sort the men from the boys. There are even some amazing course in the southern hemisphere or even in the middle east!
Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose.

Surely you aren't like that woman who wondered in print why the Masters can't be held elsewhere? Plainly, the U.S. Open and British Open must be held in their respective countries, too. This leaves the PGA Championship. I think it's in America because the PGA of America started as a prestigious event for professionals in an era when top amateurs dominated golf. There are other countries' PGA Championships, but they aren't majors.

    • Day 23 - Back to full swing work, trying to swing loose and feel the club head. 
    • Yet here we are. I don’t disagree that we should expect spectators to behave on any event, not just The Masters, but that’s not the case. There’s a sea of phones out there on any other event and a lot more incidents with spectators. Why shouldn’t we praise decent behaviour when it is often lacking in these days? There are plenty of golf related events to write negative articles about. I like when there is positivity to write about instead. Not that I expect them to behave at any other event like they do at Augusta just because it gets praise, but it’s nice to see positive spin on things. There are more than enough articles about rowdy spectators and cheating players. I think you nailed it in the first line: “grumpy old man”. 😉
    • Day 275: mirror work for a bit while watching TV. Working on cleaning up a few things in my lower body stuff. 
    • Yeah, I take your point. Perhaps you've just identified the other side of the same coin: maybe there is very little to celebrate about pro golfers as people, so the golf media are clutching at straws trying to find something.
    • Go ahead and name three things that, in the world of golf, have been more praise-worthy in the last three months. I'll wait. It's not like they got Congressional medals or something.
