I’ve been watching the U.S. Amateur and from what I’ve seen, Chambers Bay is the nearest thing that the United States has to a genuine links course. I love the look and I love the fact that there’s no irrigation. Granted, the overall look is somewhat “brown” but it’s real and I think it’s gorgeous. It kind of makes me think that that’s the way Whistling Straits ought to look and play if they’d just let it become a links course instead of treating it like a parkland course near the water.
Chambers Bay will be hosting the 2015 U. S. Open and I can’t wait to see how that works out. I just hope that the PGA or the USGA don’t insist on "setting it up" or trying to tame it in any way. From what I'm seeing now, I think the course would be fine just as it is.
Sometimes they get it right and it looks as if they've done just that with Chambers Bay.
