Sonders is 28 and looks like she's 38. She's utterly worthless on the broadcasts, too. Just pushes the damned "play" button on the TV. She's hot, but she's completely manufactured. I'd rather they just put a porn star in her place, because at least there wouldn't be any pretense as to why she got the job.
If you want to look at attractive women, there are far more attractive ones wearing far less, available for free online.
That aside...
This course is shit. This is a bastardized links course. You can't have severe elevations with links setups, because it takes away your ability to run the ball to the putting surface. This is a course that you can't play in the air and can't play along the ground.
Top that off with the worst putting surfaces they've played on all year (by far--literally, those are bad-muni quality greens) and no amount of fluffing by the USGA is going to make that course look any better.
For all the controversy about World Cup bids, I'd like to know what the hell Chambers Bay did to get the two biggest USGA Championships in its first eight years when it lacks adequate grounds to house spectators, doesn't have the climate for fair greens, and lacks suitable lodging.
They have to paint dots on the ****ing surface so that players know where the greens are. That's just an embarrassment.
Please, just keep the US Open at mature, parkland courses. The British Open is links golf, Augusta is Augusta, and the PGA is a rotating band of the second tier courses; the USGA should stick to the best parkland courses in the US.
And Davis, please, enough with the ****ing run-offs around greens and the wispy ass rough that is all about good luck. Restore the deeper rough that truly penalizes a wayward drive (forcing a wedge out) and approaches into the greens.
