So, they're changing the TPC at Sawgrass (yes, with the island green and host of the Player's Championship). They're digging up every tee box, fairway, and green to install a new drainage system and to make it "firmer and faster." Do you agree with the changes? Why or why not?

I like the changes. I think that in drier weather it'll let shorter hitters back into it and put a little more premium on accuracy. Having played the course in Tiger Woods on the GameCube, I know that if you drive it out there 350 or so you've gotta be pretty accurate as some of the fairways really pinch in. They don't have any room to lengthen the course, so this will help keep it a viable course for a long time... by increasing the reward for accuracy.
