All I read about this morning was the 7th hole. I say every writer and player out there should shut up! Boo hoo, # 7 is too fast, unfair and just too tough, big deal. I say cut your bellyaching, play golf and get paid way too much money for doing something we all love to do. Yes, it was difficult, but these guys are pros and this is their job. Regardless of the conditions: wind, rain, thick rough, fast greens, whatever it may be this is what they do.
Only 27% of the players hit the green in regulation and there was only 1 birdie. Difficult hole, yes. What's more important to me is this was fun to watch. Watching the balls roll off the green made this hole by far the best spectator hole on the course.
And here's what pisses me off about players complaining about the 7th hole. Every player in the field played the same hole with the same pin placement; there is no unfair advantage for anyone. Ernie Els called this hole ridiculous, which yes it was ridiculously difficult, I say shut up and golf.
