What are your issues with this tournament and golf course?


Tournament: the field is really good, the worst part is the Tour trying way too hard to manufacture in into a major.

Course: it's soft and overseeded when it should play firm and fast. Target golf sucks

I just don't pay attention to this. I mean I clearly hear the noise, but I tune it out.

Wasn't Sawgrass designed to play a bit like some courses in Scotland or Ireland?

Why did they feel the need to slow her down?

According to Rusty, green is bad and dormant is good. There's no in between.

He will also contradict himself.

Example 1: Players love this course and they set it up this way. Wait no, they hate this and they hate target golf.

Example 2: The course is too slow making it boring and too easy. But the fix is to remove the trees and the rough and the forced carries and speed everything up allowing every player to have wedges into every hole except par 3s. That's more difficult and more entertaining.

No, no, no! Players only say they like this course, because they have to. Players are never allowed to complain about a course or tournament.

As compared to firm and fast that is correct.

they hate target golf.


Quite literally the exact opposite of what I said.

For someone that thinks he is a golf savant it really is incredible how ignorant you are.

The way he did it was even uglier than the score.

Ryan Moore just flew the ball into the hole on #17!
Ball hit the flag stick at least 1 1/2 feet above the hole and it went straight down

Tiger just hit one of the worst shots I've ever seen him hit.

Approach into the par 5 11th with a wood and hit some ridiculous 50 yard slice thing out into the middle of a lake for no reason.
