re: Is modern golf too enamored with length off the tee?

I think lengthening courses reduces the number of guys in the field who can stick a tee in the ground and win that week. A Kisner should be tested as well as Bryson.
Length will always provide some advantage, but Courses need a variety of holes like a par 3 that is less than 150, a par 4 less than 300, a par 5 less than 550.
Watching guys play a bunch of 500 yard par 4s is not my idea of fun.
I agree with this. I think they tried lengthening to challenge the long drivers a little more, but in turn took the shorter drivers out of contention completely. I really like the idea of the thicker rough as you get closer to the hole.

It brings those 44’s on the back 9 once you have the lead making the turn into play

I think that was more of a mental meltdown. He was having dreams and shite, clearly fragile in the mind.
