Amazing weekend, really enjoyed it. Course looked immaculate, stunning views on certain holes and some really good holes to sit on.
Walked the course on Sat and then spent time sat on the 16th Par 3 watching the final 10/12 groups coming in. Long hole and not many managed to hit the green. Awesome shot from Ramsay. Went to get a drink and stopped to watch the tee shots and were stood near Radar who was commentating on that group. Live on air he said '220+ into the wind and Ramsay has stepped away 3 times now' off air 'just hot the bloody thing will ya' Ramsay's shot lips out - on air 'well done on stepping away - he did right'. Brilliant.
Sunday we sat on the Par 3 10th for a while, tough hole to make a birdie on, not many made from what we saw. Walked down 11th and you had to avoid being hit by the drives on 11 and 17!! Balls flying all over the place. Spent more time sat on 17th waiting for eagle/birdie opportunities but again not many made them.
Really enjoyed it, crowds were fantastic both days, drink/food was as expected £5.50 a pint/£7.50/8.50 burger, very easy to watch to golf, great places around the course to chill out and take it all in and the transport to and from the course was excellent.
Like some have said Wallace is little like Hatton in that his toys get thrown at every opportunity. Saw him on 15 on Sat when went in the bunker and then off the green, had a strop and another time he was having a go at his caddie for a wrong yardage, shame he hit his putter down a few times on the 18th. Disappointing to see. If Westwood could putt he'd have finished a lot higher.
Think 17th is possibly my favourite hole on the course, the view from the tee just out of this word and the approach to the green is fantastic. 7th is a really nice hole too and 16th is just impossible for me lol.
