The forgotten little brother? Why do I never read anything vitriolic about its birth?

It's no more jealous than Blue, Red and Green at Bethpage....

Well David, you do have to admit that the Green course is by nature envious...

Holes 12, 13 and 14 are the three best short hole combo there is!!

"Quirky Corner" is the name some have given it, and it really is a wonderful three hole stretch.

I've a feeling that there is plenty to talk about regarding the origins of Merion West, but I prefer to burn my bridges one at a time.
