Yep...absolutely no question about it.

Been playing the championship courses for 10 years now myself and it's boorish to hear an attempted defense of the indefensible (poor conditions of some courses), just because of...blind loyalty to Da Family.

Particularly irksome is giving an opinion of condition(s), if they haven't even played the courses...in quite a while.

A number of championship course's greens are still in good shape and a couple, like Tierra and Lopez, with the new strain of grass installed...are absolutely awesome.

While a number of others...are simply abominable.

So there is definitely something besides just "seasonal traffic"...going on.
