Watching the Arnie documentary got me wondering, what's your favorite venue for golf's most difficult major? For me it's Tillinghast's Winged Foot, with Olympic Club coming in a close second.

What say u baws?

I really liked Merion last year. Showed a short course could still have some teeth.

Yeah but logistically that was a nightmare. I bet the players hated it

True. But it was no skin off my back.

And, yeah. Most have teeth. But everyone was thinking we'd see low scores last year with the short course and inches of rain. Yet it stood up and punched them in the mouth.

I cant remember if I liked Olympic Club. I enjoyed the late night golf because it was on the west coast.
