One match did not take place in the brackets.  I'd really like to know what people think that have either played or walked both courses:  Winged Foot West vs. Bethpage Black.   From people I've talked to, there appears to be a clear winner but I'd be appreciative for opinions.  From TV, Bethpage looks more interesting to me.  Perhaps that's why I've never been invited to play Winged Foot?

All I can comment on is Cascades v. Old White.  I have to give the edge to Old White, but by a wafer-thin margin.
