Baltusrol Should Be Interesting
Posted by Nick
After the British Open, tons of folks were complaining that technology is ruining great courses. The folks at PGA think Baltusrol, site of the week's PGS, may be immune.
"We are proud of this championship, and we are so proud to be back in New Jersey and to have this event at a storied, traditional, historic golf course like Baltusrol," said Roger Warren, president of the PGA of America. "We look forward to the support of the people from New Jersey for this event. We know that we have the longest par 5 in major championship history at 650 yards. We will be at 7,400 yards. I don't think the technology issue of golf will be an issue. I think these players will be challenged."
