So far, I love Brookline. If it gets crispy this thing will be great TV this weekend. I'd shoot a million here but for pros its still very playable but also punishing.

I'd shoot an 18 at that golf course.



I'd get an 18 on the first hole and quit lol

Saw a tweet from a golf instructor that had been walking the course, and he said anyone over a 10 handicap would probably struggle to break 200. I think that's a stretch.

That's a ridiculous thing to say. It's not outrageously long or tight. The problem is around the greens. Depends on the goal. If you told me I couldn't break 100 and I just played to break 100, I bet I could. Now, if you told me to go play and just play how I normally would, very good chance I'm not even close. I'm somewhere between 5 and 10 depending on the day.

Yeah, I shot around 110 on Kiawah Island, and I played terribly that day (it was 98 degrees with 99% humidity).

I need Rory's shirt. Well, not his exactly; I'm not Buffalo Bill, but one like it a few sizes larger.

Random question. If your an amateur, can you wear a logo hat/polo like Nike/Under Armour etc. Or are you required to wear something like a plain hat/local course gear type thing?

I'm sure you can wear whatever you want. It's basically free advertising for those companies, so I'm not sure why they would discourage it.
