      Another tough course, some very long holes, as well as some crazy greens. But overall, I really enjoyed this course, it's perhaps my favourite yet. You get a few holes in a row where it crushes your soul in every way, and then it will give you a couple of easier holes to give you some confidence back again. I thought I putted pretty well today, and still had 3 bogeys from GIR, which is all I really need to say about the greens.

        Things went really well fo me today and I shot 75, the 72 by big fraugh is really good. Not sure I can even repeat the 75. Greens are crazy and the course plays longer than 6,900. Fun to play though

          I literally said these same words to big fraugh last night when we finished up the live round. That 72 is gonna be hard to beat on this course! Big fraugh is a good player and is barely getting up to speed on the short game side. Fun guy to play with as well. Nice 75 brandon, greens are brutal...

        I play this course all the time. I love it. I think I shot a 69 on it one night.

          I guess because I drive the ball so crooked and there are no trees to get in my way.

        New low for me, 75, absolutely thrilled with that. I've felt for a while I've been blowing some good ball striking with poor chipping and putting, but this felt the opposite, still hitting a few good shots, but saving the poor ones with good chipping. I agree the lack of trees helps my game a lot.

          I tried to play a round last night, but the only thing available to me was Q school again.. Any ideas on why?

            Goto Tournaments, then change filter to Public tournaments, then it's the Northern Trust.  Good luck.

          I tried to finish my round last night but it kept having troubles downloading the scorecard. What's up with that?

            The servers were syncing up 10k courses. It was probably a side effect of that.

          Who picked this course? I play a version of this course all the time with much more receptive greens. I be I had 10 chip/pitch shots up hill where the ball went 20 feet past the hole leaving me a 7" downhill putt. Impossible. I played well enough to shoot even par but the greens were stupid.

            Ha! I was thinking the same exact thing - these greens are crazy stupid

          Oh well, we all have to play it. Just very frustrating. Not a fan of US open greens. USGA can go mount themselves and we don't need it replicated.

              Has this course been played on the tour before?

            No offense just didn't like the greens, the course is fine.

              Mthunt. This is a good pick. yes the greens are slippery. you just have to know that and play it. They are not fast for putts, they just do not hold wedges. Play the ball short and let it roll up. links style

                I disagree. There is nothing realistic about these greens. This is a good video game course but we shouldn't be playing it on the tour.

                  We’ve played worse greens, that’s for sure. These do mostly have areas to run the ball up so it’s not too bad. Thenpins tucked over bunkers are kinda hokey and unfair but it’s defi not an enjoyment killer.

                    Cooke nailed it. Definitely not the worst we have played, playable if you're on your game. Sometimes you have to hit your distances. Lordy I failed miserably in real life today.
