I have been taping the US Amateur the past few days and watching it in the evening. "Only" 6800 yards, but giving some pretty good golfers a very rough time. Supposedly the length of the course has taken Merion out of the running for a U S Open, but watching the play the past couple of days I'm not sure. Looks like Pine Valley from what I see on TV. Any of you guys out that way ever play the course? Any opinions as to whether the course would still provide a challenge to the pros?
