Best courses to Host a Major
« on: August 13, 2011, 12:41:40 PM »
I know this is the year to go what are they thinking to the USGA and PGA. Well it is almost every year you say that to PGA. The USGA did have some great selections this year. One was not the Open though. Old Mac for public links, RI Golf Club for Womens Am by way of example.  What are the best courses to host a major. Obviously Augusta National  each year, Shinny and Pebble Beach are in the elite club.

What does it matter if the poor player can putt all the way from tee to green, provided that he has to zigzag so frequently that he takes six or seven putts to reach it?     --Alistair Mackenzie--
