Augusta plays as firm as the design allows. I don't see a problem.
And wrong again. Augusta plays nothing like MacKenzie deigned it to play.
How did MacKenzie design it to play ?
Couldn't the argument be made that very few of MacKenzie's courses play as he designed them? Heck, half of them were not even built to the design he had in the first place. Maxwell, Russell, Morcum all toned down some of his ideas.
