I think you're optimistic on those green speeds.
Upscale resort courses known for 'fast' greens, still only average 8-10 on the stimp.
Oakmont, where the stimpmeter was invented, brags about having the fastest greens around...and they normally run about 10-12.
This Rickie Fowler video proves Oakmont'''s greens are rolling at ridiculous speeds - Golf Digest

The typical PGA Tour speed is between 10 and 11.
