Partly what others have said. Just seems to demand a very one dimensional style of golf to win here, but maybe that’s because BK is way out ahead doing what he does (which would probably be successful on most golf courses).
Ill probably get murdered for this but I feel like a few of the USPGA and US Open courses have been a bit samey of late.
I’d like to think that they’d be able to move to Florida without forgetting everything they learned while growing up here and developing in the European Tour.
To clarify, I agree wholeheartedly with your original post.
A friend and I are now determined to give it a go. We played the 2010 Celtic Manor course recently but this looks like even more fun. Surely they’ll hike the prices after this weekend though.
Well to this casual and clearly uninformed observer it seemed as if those points, world ranking, and golfing reasons were kind of pointless from the thick rough on this course.
The bloke is 192nd in driving accuracy . If the pick was made for golfing reasons it was dumb. If it was made for sentimental reasons as some people have suggested then yeh, id go along with it being indefensible.
Ok 👍
Enjoyed the RC. Hope we can mount a challenge in 2 years. Biggest problem for away teams of late seems to be making the singles with any realistic chance of victory.
Bollocks. Mickelson in the foursomes was a ridiculous shout, Mickelson full stop was a terrible pick, TW too for that matter, but you go on burying your head in the sand. I’m sure TW’s terrible RC record is all down to his partners right?
I for one hope he plays all 5 matches next time 👍
That’s it then. Think Bjorn was pretty smart for putting Molinari and Stenson down there.
Mickelson what a stinker! Furyk will cop a load of stick for him playing like an orange.
Olessen beats Spieth 5&4 and I reckon we saw a handful of his putts, none of his approach play.
Rahm way up there on 17, DJ in the water on 15. Starting to breathe a little easier now.
oh my DJ another monster putt!
