The wife and I went to the US Amateur today at Pinehurst. Here are a couple of my thoughts on the day:

-Pinehurst No.2 is phenomenal. It does not have the views of say Pebble Beach, but what a golf course. It was immaculate.
-It was the semi's, so 4 guys played with the 2 youngest just out of HS. One Georgia bulldog, another one headed Georgia this fall, a FSU Nole, and Danny Lee-who has decided if he will attend college or not.
-All 4 hit the ball a ton.
-Danny Lee, No.1 ranked amateur should win it tomorrow. Watch for this guy in coming years.
-The crowned greens were the only thing that showed me these guys were not pros- a lot of missed putts.

The tickets were only $15 for the day, but a USGA member gave us a couple of free passes- Great free entertainment.

I am dying to go to Pinehurst one day. It's on my short list of things to do before I kick it.

How far did Reed make it in the tourney? Isn't he only 16?
