This is going to be a very snapshot in time review but it might be helpful for those who want to play the course right after the farmer's. Got to play the north yesterday while the pros were finishing up their final round on the south and it was an incredible experience to get to play the same set up as the pros did thursday/friday. same pins, same green speeds, same rough. so if you want to test your game and see how you'd do, no better time than right after the tournament. To me, the course conditions were absolutely perfect. tee boxes were all mint, fairways were absolutely perfect (never seen fairway divots filled so exquisitely), greens were running at 12 and it was a nightmare (for me), and the rough was a monster. Finding a ball just a few yards off the fairway was an adventure. Only managed to lose one on my second shot on the par 5 10th which was kind of blind but when i hit it i thought it'd be in the middle of the fairway. Was in a number of traps and they were all perfect; was able to get a good lie and nip the ball and get spin each time. I'm forever spoiled now. Walking the course under picture perfect postcard skies just made it that much more enjoyable. Could have played better, but the memories of that experience are what i'm going to remember most. If you're somehow able to get on and play in the next few weeks i can not recommend it enough. good luck if you do tho!
