Move to Cockingham, you Limey fuck.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:Doesn't every single British Open course have ugly, brown, uneven grass/greens too? Nobody ever complains. Plus the weather is always awful. At least it's nice in Tacoma.

The winner said 18 sucked ... as a Par 4. Was also quoted as saying it is a great par 5.
I was shocked that the USGA played 18 as a par 5 today ... was an absolutely great call.
The scores were great today and solid for the tournament overall. 274 is a solid score for winning.
The browness of the course is standard for almost all of the US Open courses - it's called firm and fast.
Two things for anybody bitching about the greens:
1) most putts I saw missed were tied to hesitant and poor strokes - these greens demanded firm and confident strokes vs babying putts into the hole
2) you could argue that the course setup was also influenced by the greens to make for more opportunities for players to score
And finally, the #2 player in the world won. When the US Amateur was played in 2010, the final consisted on the #1 and #2 amateurs in the world. If the measure of a championship course is identifying the best player(s), hard to argue with the results that Chambers is producing -
Somehow I doubt you would say any of this except for the fact it's a local course that you have played before.Tequilla said:The winner said 18 sucked ... as a Par 4. Was also quoted as saying it is a great par 5.

Bitching about the course is the same as bitching about the altitude in Provo. Doog shit
