Give Chambers Bay the benefit of the doubt

[cary lichtenstein]

It's Wednesday, nobody has seen even 1 shot hit let alone one round completed. These are the best players in the world and quality will survive and win this tournament as it always does.


Please stop with all the negatives and give Fox, Chambers Bay and Mike Davis the benefit of the doubt.


It looks to be a unique and exciting venue.

It doesn't look perfect but you have a bunch of spoiled brats that are not in control, with a new course that's very different. 


The last major (Augusta) is perfectly green and completely predictable which is the way they like it.

I loved it!!!!!!!!!  I thought Mike Davis set up the course great so we could enjoy it, I thought Chambers Bay is/was way better than all the criticism and the cream rose to the top with Jordan Speith  the winner.


This was the most exciting US Open in my recent memory.


Chambers Bay architecture, while not minamalistic as is strongly favored by most of this site, this showed that there is still another fresh way to design a golf course. It took great vision to design CB as well by the pros to analyze it and create their game plans.


It certainly appears that the pros adapted quite well, learned it's quirk and did quite well. The low scoring in the final round is a testament to Davis's thoughtful set up and the rewards of aggressive play.
