Let me introduce you to a little tournament known as The International. Played on this course with a stableford scoring format. Legit one of the best 5 non-major events on the schedule.
I wish I was a golf sicko back then. Hopefully there’s some YouTube deep diving (spelunking even?) to be done
Speaking of Rog, scrolling through his GHIN and recent rounds, hitters only in terms of courses.
Medinah, Olympia Fields, RHF, Shinnecock, Whistling Straits, Castle Pines, HALLA, Bluejack, Bandon.
