[retired guy]

I'm from W. Pa. about 40 min. from the Oakmont CC. Here is a screen shot of golf balls for the Open. I think Jim needs to do some history of the open. This is the 125th!
Oakmont has hosted the most US opens, this is #10.

Nantz is referring to the Masters.

The first Masters was played in 1934 but there was no tournament in 1943, 1944, and 1945, so 2036 will be the 100th.

The first US Open was held in 1895 but was canceled in WW1 and WW2. It will be held in Oakmont in 2033, 2042, and 2049.

Eleven years does seem rather excessive. I only gave my company 30 days’ notice.

Gee, he'll only be 77. What's the rush?
