Golf Guys...how did Olympic get the Open?

[Swinging Johnson]

The course is a mess. Brown patcbes all throughout and it looks flat out ugly. What am I missing here?

This is one of the better courses on the open cycle. Always good finishes....hard ass course but not ridiculous like shinnecock or oakmont.

I have no doubt but it's ugly, is not? I just dont recall seeing brownpatches at Pebble Beach?

Brown on golf courses isn't always bad. It can just happen when the golf course is firmed up to play faster.

Look at British open courses..they're all brown because of the weather and the wind whipping all the time. Still great for play.

Love it...not sure why they haven't done this before at pebble or Torrey pines. Has to improve ratings.

Green grass is just cosmetic. Best fairways I ever played on were brown. Firm but nice lies, could hit any kind of shot.

[Swinging Johnson]

Good points both. Just doesnt look pretty like many others

Played it for a while, never dug it and watch it rarely. Just an observation. Surprised with all the technology that they couldntkeep it green, after all its tv baby.
