  Wondering  why WGT Oakmont Score card Par and Hole Handicaps are different from the Real Oakmont?

  # 9 is a Par 5 not a Par 4 as on WGT

   

  Also all the Handicaps for each hole is different. Whats up with that?  We are running a Winter League and noticed it when we played this front 9 this week.

  thx Ben

  WGT sets up their courses like they are played when the U.S. Open is played there. My guess would be that the ladies open last year made that hole a par 4 instead of a par 5. 

  Just like # 7 @ BPB is a par 5 for everyday play but the U.S. Open made it a par 4 so WGT made it a par 4
