That's a bit like comparing apples and oranges though. The conditions at the open could not have been further from the conditions that they had at Woburn yesterday.
Agreed but Woburn has been set up difficult.
While the weather was tricky at the Open they were / are Pros who are supposed to be able to handle it.
So, while the conditions are not the same neither are the players. Over 4 days only 4 pros managed to card under par at the open.
Also, how many events like this have these amateur players been to before? What part is being played by nerves? I don't know the answer here, just raising the question.
I can sort of see IJPs point, they should be able to take criticism but there are ways of being constructively critical - IJP was not being constructive IMO.
