Currently 40 guys under par at the US Open. I grow tired of Mike Davis setups and the selections of these courses without any history to host a national championship.
"Hey, let's put 60 yard wide fairways in on a treeless golf course in an area that receives 3.5 inches of rain per month with average highs near 80, and little to no wind. What could go wrong?"
Now, to be fair, the USGA and RA need to collaborate with the tour on rolling back the golf ball so that you don't need an 8,000 yard course, but I miss the days of thinner strips of graduated rough and tough, gnarly grass bordering the collar of the greens that ate up standard approach shots.
