Nice article.
thanks

Always great to get 9 paragraphs from the "Open Dentist" Mike Davis

That's all well in good but as a critic, what does Whitten think of the course?

Good point. Save the clever factoids for a summer intern.

As the preeminent living commentator on gca, Whitten should have better things to talk about.

If this is the only article Whitten has written about CB and the Open, I agree.  If he has covered the course itself before, then this was sort of an interesting addendum of assorted facts. 

I didn't read it in great detail, but that NYT article a few days ago seemed mostly of the throw-away variety.
