Mavric Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 My brother and I went to the 2009 US Open at Bethpage. Will be fun to watch one on TV after having walked the course for four days. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 Future of golf? Why this week’s 8,000-yard course boasts a 773-yard par 5 Quote This is the debut of the TPC Colorado Championship at Heron Lakes, a new event with a new host course in the Heron Lakes development in the town of Berthoud, Colo. The first hole is a 635-yard par-5, and it’s still a full shot shorter than the par-5 13th, which clocks in at 773 yards. “Longer Still,” the hole is called. That seems appropriate. The tee shot on No. 13 is wide open, allowing players to swing away. On their second shots, they’ll be challenged by a “Hell Bunker” or forced to lay up to 200 yards, according to the course guide. Frankly, laying up to 200 yards on a 773-yard hole sounds like a heck of an accomplishment. But for these young bombers, no hole — or course — seems to be long enough. Quote Link to comment
