The British Open

After watching the Open this weekend and listening to commentators talking about Hoylake and whether or not it should be added back to the rotation of places hosting the Open, I have to add my 2 cents. Why not? Consider this mind teaser, the conditions at Hoylake made Tiger Woods use his driver only once in 72 holes! With all of the talk about Tiger proofing courses to level the playing field, this course took away a huge weapon in his arsenal and yet he stood up to the challenge and was hitting the fairways better than anyone else. Many of the players are saying that this course should definitely be back in the rotation for the Open. I agree. You need a wide variety of courses in order to test the best players in golf. It forces them to adjust their game to the course rather than the course adjusting to the players.
