"A shot poorly played should be a shot irretrievably lost." I'm not saying I agree with the statement, but no architect ever uttered words that better or more succinctly summed up his architectural philosophy.

The November issue of Golf World (UK) is the "Top 100 Courses in GB&I" and has quotes from 17 GCA's ranging from Braid and Mackenzie to Doak and Kidd.

This one, from Tom Simpson, is my favorite: "The vital thing about a hole is that it should be either more difficult than it looks or look more difficult than it is. It must never be what it looks."

That is a very nice dismissal of the "it's all there in front of you" school!

Fun and interesting courses are those that tempt, but do not dictate…they are courses like Pinehurst #2 that recognize the inherent value of power and encourage its use, but not to the point of giving indiscriminate length an insurmountable advantage.

I'll go for:
It's the kind of green that can make you look stupid... with or without a putter in your hand.
