Your probably right on both counts but a few outsiders to throw in are F Molinari, Justin Rose and I always back Ernie in Majors. By the way that course last week was shocking, my 74 year old mother watches golf amongst other sports all the time and never stopped banging on about the state of the greens. She had a point ,lol

Around here we call those types of courses, "cow pastures." I think the US Open should always be on a course that is more representative of US golf courses. Winged Foot, Pebble Beach, Oakmont, Merion, Shinnecock, Bethpage Black, Pinehurst 7, Olympic or any of a dozen other courses are much more attractive and representative of what's here.

By the way, your guy Els nailed it... I've played courses here where the temporary greens rolled better than those greens...

Well the 'experts'were saying its the same for everyone on Sky but it was horrendous. Did the weather catch them out or something or did they want the course to play like that. I don't play golf, been on a driving range a few times but nothing serious.It looked Like a very poor UK links course and they had a major water sprinkler malfunction,lol
