  #2 saint andrews..........very weird green

  Everytime I play that hole and get within 2 foot I think maybe this time. Always seem to miss the putt though!

  BPB15 can be a nightmare but I reckon I bogey Oakmont 9 more often.

  My worst and most hated hole is the #15 at Beth Page Black.  Can't ever seem to get the right approach.  I like the English courses though.  The winds are such a huge challenge.  But Beth Page..................hate it!

  Oakmont #9 is my biggest nightmare.I usually go for the bunker and hope to knock it close out of the sand. Never,ever birdied this hole with maybe a few pars.

  Dispatcher------ On 15 Beth try hitting 20 yds extra with full backspin on 2nd shot. It usually will go past the hole and roll back down towards it. Give it a try and you will see.

  From my point of view and my tees and green speed, there is no doubt that Oakmont #9 is the hardest hole on WGT by far.  If the wind is up on 17 at STA it can be tough but the putts you end up on 9 at Oakmont make it tougher.

  +1 ... Oak 9 is always a tough par; above the hole is a 3 putt; lay up and it's still a difficult up and down, with that weird hole location. BPB 15 can be a birdie; with the right approach you leave yourself a more or less straight, steep uphill putt. St.A 17 you can land way short in a headwind and the ball funnels toward the hole. Neither is easy, but Oak 9 is much worse.

  How come for the masters tees on BPB 15 it is 478 and for legends its 458. Anybody know or is my information wrong?
