Sadly, I take a giant collar on the Philly six but have played more than a few of the Tillinghast NYC metro courses (all within 60 miles of Winged Foot first tee BTW). I consider the Tilly parkland metro NY bakers dozen (13 in golfweek top 200) very over-rated at the top but nonetheless, it would seem they win on a walkover against Flynn in Philadelphia.
Or are the rankings that far out of whack? I welcome any individual comparisons between the courses but it would seem the Philly view is not even close.
NYC: WFW(17),Somerset (24), Bethpage (25), WFE (29), Quaker Ridge (31), Baltusrol L (41), Ridgewood (56), Baltusrol U (58), Fenway (75), Sands Point (143), Brooklawn (180), Metropolis (188), Paramount (192)
Philly: Lancaster (73), Rolling Green (104) , Philly CC (109), Lehigh (117), Hunt Valley (132), Manufacturers (151)
Does Lancaster even come close to the the eight listed above it in NYC metro?
