Would you rather watch...

Exactly, make them earn their paycheck
 
Do not like the tournaments where the winning score is -20 or so. I love it when they have to work at at, like -7 to -10.

Oh really? Must have misremembered what I heard on the TOC broadcast. Guess I’m not as good at multitasking as I thought. Thanks for the correction.

Maybe they were talking about how slower greens allow a course to have much larger features on the greens, which is very true. Not sure a ball would stay on a green with 4% slope if they stimp at 13+
 
I generally only watch major championships or occasionaly the final round of a tournament. I enjoy it when they shoot -20 and tough US Open conditions when only a handful break par.
 
I want see them struggle!
 
I want to see guys go low every week of the year but two, The Open and the US Open.

For me, I like to watch the tournaments where the best players in golf are really struggling to break par. The type of tournament where maybe a handful of guys finish under par. I think this is why The US Open is almost always my favorite tournament of the year! I also feel it's the type of tournament where the mentally strong will have the best showing, being able to put a bad hole or bad break behind them, and really focus on what they can control.

I like to watch the Pro’s struggle, seems closer (not really) to my game.

this. I like seeing proper shots being rewarded and the not so great shots forcing them to show off why they are the best in the world. I hate seeing them struggle due to the tournament felt they wanted them to with ridiculous greens/pins and a foot of rough with basically no fairway, etc.
 
I too am in the camp of seeing them struggle because they have hit bad shots - hitting wedges out of rough that is only marginally longer than the grass on fairways isn't a challenge for them

If someone plays well and shoots a good score regardless of conditions, they deserve to win, but hitting a wild shot off the tee and still having an easy (for them) shot at the pin isn't right in my opinion
