The guys that scored well were the earlier starters when the greens were less shit. By late afternoon they were unplayable, tell me how that's fair?
And you've highlighted the problem.
In the earlier tee times, the play was tough but fair.
As the afternoon wore on and the wind picked up, it made a few holes very borderline.
All the holes the later groups had problems with, 15 for instance, there still were some making par. Not just enough. As with every course, you hit it in the wrong spot and you make it tougher for yourself.
So did some caddies and players suss it out where not to hit it better on holes like 15?
If the USGA were to set up the course Saturday over again, I think the only difference would be they might move a couple pins a few feet.
So were on to today. Same wind predicted to pick up as the day goes along.
