- Partly. But it goes to show that the elite get ridiculous scores on whatever course they play. (nm) - musubi Dec 16, 08:24
- More that the big boys play on courses mortals aren't familiar with. - Will Hunting Dec 16, 08:24 1
  - Plus most tour players get 1 shot a year at any given course so shooting 68 anywhere is insanely great. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 16, 08:25
