A couple of questions. How do you know TV greens "are the worst around"? Which local courses are you using for your comparison? Also, why are the greens unplayable to a single handicap golfer. I'll acknowledge I'm no single handicap, but I play the championship courses twice a week, and I know there are some problems, but never "unplayable". Interesting first post . . . .
