Hi John and George- We built the new forward tees in the fall of '08. Front left on #2, maybe 40-50 yards short of the existing shortest tee for the '07 Open. Short of the existing #17 by 20 yards on the same line. John , the new tee on #2 is far left of the rest of the teeing ground and you do not notice it when you play # 2 from the existing tee. In 1991 we built 2 new forward tees for the 1992 Women's Open, both #15 and #18 are a par 5 for lady member play so they just moved the competitors up(by about 35 yards each) for the championship week and made them both par 4's(same for men) and then dug them both up on tuesday after the playoff. When we built the longer tees for the championship markers in the fall of '01(lenthened the back by ~250 yards) we also built new forward tees on # 3, #4, #5, #7, and #11. These current forward tees give the USGA setup committee many options depending on weather , wind , and desired variety for this year's women's championship. See you in July. -Mark
