    Fair game in my books. Coaches can pick players with outlier stats to combat these strategies. Players like Bryson...

    I think its more important that none of the American players played the Italian open while the European players did. If the US want to do better they should be taking the opportunity to play the European courses in a tournament setting.

    I have no issue with this. The course remains the same state for everyone and the opposition can still do their homework (maybe even predict the changes). The best players will adapt accordingly. Cream always rises.

      But the skewed stats don't support your arguement the cream always rises. The whole point of tailoring a course to the requirements of data is the polar opposite of what you suggest...

    In every Teamsport you focus on your strengthes and the opponents weaknesses in every way the rule book gives you that freedom. Why should it be different in Golf?
    It is not like the Americans have to play a different course.

    The reason many people venture into Trading/lnvesting (Financial Market), is so that they can get to have a better life, while working and even after retirement. The wisest thing that should be on every wise individual's list is to invest in different stream of income; I am earning more this year because I have been investing while working at the same time. I Invested through LAURA A KEADY , same woman that an anchor kept mentioning on CNBC, she is licensed and made multiple of my start up capital within three months.

      I invested across the top markets but not by myself though. I also follow the guidelines of Laura A Keady. I can correctly say she is worth her salt as an investment advisor as her diversification skills is top-notch, I say this because of the results, as my portfolio grows by averages of 20 to 30% every month, unlike I can say for my IRA which has just been trudging along. my portfolio just mirrors what he places and not just on some particular industries of my choosing.she gave me that financial freedom I needed.

    I don’t think minor course setup can really make or break the cup. Course architecture could but they’re not rebuilding an entire course. End of the day these guys are crazy good playing anywhere and any elite golfer will tell you it comes down to sinking putts

      Analytically, approach shots are the most valuable.
      I mean Scottie Scheffler earned $5M more than the second-place guy on the money list, and he is genuinely one of the worst putters on tour.
