Did you see how long they took on every putt - it was painful to watch.  On the men's tour Stenson and Na were put on the clock as the final twosome on Sunday - Na is known to be very deliberate(slow) and has not won since 2011 so it meant a great deal to him and it is arguable that being on the clock was part of the reason that he lost. I just don't believe that playing slow is necessary to play quality golf.

Mr. Bogey, I am a fan of Ms. Piller because I enjoy her game. She also seems friendly and engaging (unlike Christie Kerr).

+1 x 10! (and I would not mind getting to play a round or two with her each month or maybe just hit golf balls with her once a week or so)

And another x 10
She has been for a couple of decades the best at what she does. My favourite.


Bogey - I think that's the most accurate (and brief) description/analysis of Pete Dye I've read here: he is not the greatest (in my  opinion, not even close) but he has been the most critical/pivotal architect in America. Actually, I'd suggest that he created/defined *American* golf course architecture.
