So, Max, um, it's your favorite golf
course. I'm over here. It's ok. What
, what is it about it that you love,
uh, compared to so many other places you play
and because you like it, um, I mean
, obviously your record is fantastic. But does that
add a little extra pressure? Do you ever find
yourself trying a little bit too hard here? Uh
, for the second part of that question, I
used to, I got lucky and got a couple
of sponsors here, my first couple of years as
a pro and I definitely felt like this is,
you know, this is a major to me.
Um, and, uh, you know, it
felt like I was really trying to do my best
in front of my friends and family, although I
know they don't care. That's why last year was
hard just cause I felt like I was finally playing
well and had everybody out and, uh, I
didn't quite finish it. But, um, so
I've gotten kind of past the trying hard part.
Uh, it's my favorite just because it doesn't have
really a hazard. It doesn't have really have a
lot of bounds that really comes into play, maybe
a couple of shots and it's just hard. Um
It's not crazy long. Obviously, the air doesn't
make the ball go super far, so it plays
long and it's one of those few golf courses,
I think that can play soft or firm and still
be pretty stout test. It's better when it's firm
, but it can still be a stout test.
Something about the Kikuya in front of the greens that
you can't bounce a ball up. Precision is mega
rewarded. And there's certain holes. I'm always fascinated
. The fifth hole is the best example. But
if you put the pin, you could put,
you could change the pin by 35 ft 40 ft
between one round and the next. I'd love to
know what the scoring average is because if you put
it on the middle, left side, it's one
of the easiest second shots you'll have and you put
the pin on the front right or back, right
. And it's not that far away and it's all
of a sudden just I hope I make par.
So I love that they can do that uh with
just pin positions. They don't need a lot of
weather help for it. And I just, I'm
not a golf architect, um uh expert here,
but that's just what I noticed about this place.
