I played it two weeks ago from the tips.  It is too much for mere mortals.  I shot 84.  I was five over par as far as I'm concerned.

If Daly reached 17 in 1993 when it was 630 yards, I don't know why Vijay thinks it is unreachable now at 650 yards.  The equipment has easily given them that much since '93.  Not saying anyone will do it, but its clearly doable by Daly's past example.

Well, doable for Daly and a few others at least, not for me :)
