Let's just hope the USGA don't get a look at this site - after the course they set up at Shinnecock, it wouldn't surprise me if marmots and poisonous snakes made an appearance next year.

Now that's a round of golf. Do you think his wife knows? Or was it one of those "he left Sunday at 9AM and said he was going to shoot 18. That was three weeks ago."
