[Herky] Non-Herky U S Open

[Jeff Napier]

Not me. I play on a course that is similar in many respects and it is fun to see the pros have to deal with the elements that I have to. These are the best in the world and they should be able to excel in any conditions not just when every thing is perfect. It really brings out the mental aspect of the game because you have to think more about the shot you are going to make and you have to concentrate on even the 3 footers.   The best golfers will still rise to the top.
Now I would agree that the greens were not where they wanted them but that is life. Deal with it. You will have a couple of holes over the course of a day where the putt will not be perfectly straight. You hear the complaints about the times it made them miss but not the times they mis-read/hit it but with the slight change it went in. That stuff all evens out over the course of the tourney. Are you mentally tough enough to get through it and continue to make good shots.

Do any of you golfers out there share my disappointment in the US Open course?  Tee to green was ok, but far too long.  And the greens were goofy golf.  I want to see the world’s greatest golfers stick the ball by the pin, not worry about hitting it roll 50’ past the pin and then turn around to roll 60-70’ the other way.  I saw one putt turn on a dime and run off the course into a sand trap. That is not world class golf.  That is stuff you experience at the Crazy Hollow Putt-Putt (name imagined).   Keith Voigts
