When I first saw the course on Thursday, the first thing I thought was I don't ever want to play that course, as it looked not only intimidating, but possibly unfair. I'm disappointed to see that this course is going to be a Ryder Cup venue. I love the Ryder Cup, but I'm not sure I want to see it played on this particular course.
I hear you but with all those players being 10 under par or so I don't think the basic course is unfair. -11 is a very low score for a major.

Might be a great Ryder Cup venue since it is match play. This course has lots of risk/reward holes (reachable par 4's, long par 3's, routes that cut off some length etc.)
