The were definitely faster than the tournament officials wanted, but I'm not so sure that they were putting true. I saw a lot of balls bobble off line in the last few inches of putts. You also need to realize that the faster greens get the more the ball is going to be affected by imperfections. The slower the ball is rolling, the more it's going to be affected by breaks and bumps. It's also difficult to keep a ball online when you have to hit it s softly.
