Great win for Phil! Can someone explain to me why they play the Open on a golf course with so much dead grass?

I heard Tom Weiskopf give an explanation that links are an area near the ocean where crops won't grow. Apparently grass doesn't do so well either. Anyway that's where the local folks had an available area to invent and play the game.

Because super fast fairways are the ultimate test for pro’s. Weekend golfers? Lol, forget it.
Michelson was magnificent today. He conquered his personal demon. The Open. Next is the US OPEN!
