We were blessed with big names at top of leader board and a great finish. But

I don't think there will ever be another PGA played there.

I never really understand why we care about how scores relate to par as if it

As a casual fan I love low scores. Why do I want to watch guys make par all day?

I’m the opposite. I want to see hard golf courses.

All I'm saying is as someone who literally has never teed off from a box

I want them all to go into hazards. "Not so easy is it? Psshh...amatures"

The equivalent would be occasionally playing with larger goals in soccer.

Because it’s boring. Don’t make it long. Make it tricky. Those greens and fairways were so soft. There was no rollout

Because we want to see the guys mastering the difficulty in addition to besting

I didn’t even know we cared; I agree with you

Valhalla is pure 80’s/90’s golf course built in the bigger and longer trend phase of golf design

Bottom line…the course brought the cream to the top

Biggest reason was the rain and a soft course. Too bad we didn’t get to see it
