That's true. Related to this, I'm not real sure that I like having a major championship at a course that hosts a PGA Tour event. I get that the US Open wants to move away from some of the country clubs that typically host, but I don't know...
Well , as I said in an earlier post, Pebble Beach will be the site in 2010, and the Tour stops there every year in February. Also, Tiger’s tournament is played at Congressional outside DC, and it will be hosting the Open in 2011. Some overlap is unavoidable I suppose.
