The PGA Championship is normally my least favorite tournament of the 4 majors. The PGA seems to copy the US Open in it course selection. Both tournaments typically chose old classic courses with poor optics for television and seemingly redundant holes. Contrarily this year, as was the case in 2004, the tournament was held at Whistling Straits, a links golf course. The Straits has a wide variety of holes and plenty of disaster awaiting every shot.Digressing: if you saw the coverage this week you may share my impression that Whistling Straits looked like a target golf course dropped into a sandbox. When I think of a links course I think of St. Andrews, Troon and Bandon Dunes (Oregon) where they have pot bunkers in the middle of the fairway right where you want to hit your tee shot.

I'm not saying that Whistling Straits isn't a great course and that it wasn't exciting, however it's my opinion that it isn't a true links course and shouldn't be advertised as such. It's a beautiful monument to golf, an extremely difficult course...more
