Green Speeds

The link below can be found in the left column of the blog under USGA  Weekly Updates but I thought I would post again here.  I believe if the USGA wanted to make the Open a really hard challenge it isn't with turning the golf course into an "EXTRA CRISPY" piece of land, its with the greens.  Don't make them faster, make them slower....really slow!  I'd love to see those guys have to cock their wrists and whack a putt instead of gently tapping the ball and watch it roll 15 feet.  Just my opinion, but read for yourself what conditions were like back in the late 70's for the Open.  On our worst day at CCN our greens are faster than what were "tournament conditions" back in the day!
