I just want to see them not fuck up Pebble.
By that you mean the USGA? Because they are going to. Better just rip that bandaid off now.I just want to see them not fuck up Pebble.
My biggest beef is what they have done to the greens in the past. I do not mind narrow fairways and dense rough to challenge the players to make decisions on the tee to play for pure distance or control. But greens that can not hold a well struck shot have no place on any golf course, let alone a major. I rather see someone shoot -20 if they have a hot week than watch the field struggle to make pars because the greens can not hold a drop of water let alone a golf ball.There is a great expression here, "Their coat is hanging on a shakey hanger". If they screw this up after the past few years! I know it is a different kind of golf, punishing, exacting etc. And sometimes that is OK to see, rather than a -26 under birdie blitz. But let's make it tough and fair, not impossible.
