We must remember all that money at stake (as Mac reminded me 'also "our Game is at stake"), so designers make it easy for these guys, because without their modern ball and equipment Old Tom and Young Tommy would see them off faster than saying 'Look there is a bloody bunker on the fairway, how stupid to leave one there, trying to place hazards in the way of a good game of golf', what will they think of next?’
This is the modern face of the game, which I just hate and have only contempt for the TV and their commentators.
Will someone tell them that if its Golf they are playing so where else would one place a strategic bunker?
