Pretty wild.

Looks just line an Open course.

This course should be way more punishing for the bad tee shots. Augusta was just too friendly this weekend. The pine needles were no challenge for anyone. And if you hit it past those, you were sitting pretty on another fairway.

Looks like a throwback links course. Interesting choice for a US Open

Apparently they left some of the ruins intact from when the property was a mine

Pretty unique

Played here in Feb... The course is AWESOME. They had about half the greens closed for the Open, but none the less it is definitely a must play course. Views of the Puget Sound are amazing.

How does the course compare to the Bandon courses or Whistling Straits?

Just seems interesting to have Chambers bay for the U.S. Open, and Whistling Straights for the PGA in the same year.

US Open is supposed to be fairways as tight as an 18 year old bible thumper, lined with trees that would have you thinking 70's porn bush, edged by long thick rough like a 2 week trim job, running down to greens greased up like a dime store slam piece.

not a cow pasture with some nice slivers of grass running around it. That shits for the Brits
