Okay, so professional golfers can play good at courses they play ALL THE TIME... but are they really good golfers, or is it the familiarity that makes them better? Is there a chance that Dustin Johnson and Phil Mickelson are 10 handicappers like the rest of us at a random course?
Well, for a sport so concerned with its imminent death... why not make things interesting? Let's find out!
Schedule an event at a course they never play and don't let them practice. Make them go out like the rest of us and play an unfamiliar new (to them) course.
Hold a tournament at The Bull @ Pinehurst Farms, or the Harvester, or The Jewel or Bully Pulpit. See if unfamiliarity makes professional golfers a little more amateur.
Maybe PGA golfers aren't as great as their advertisements say they are... or maybe they are... but playing the EXACT same tournament locales year after year after year after year after year after year after year gets as bland and repetitive as this sentence. Give the game some life and variety... let the local pros face off with the pro pros...
Try something new.
Or don't. And just complain about the stale status of the game. Some of these TV folks do that quite well.
