They all play the same course, public plays on those kind of greens all the time.

I've played on a number of public courses, mostly low-end, which I prefer, and I can't even imagine that course ... it's like Mars.

On the XM PGA channel, they entertained a caller who expounded on the substandard conditions and equipment of yore, saying that these guys shouldn't complain. Paradoxically, he pointed out how SLOW the greens were in the Arnie era, with the intended implication that todays pros shouldn't complain about greens that require orbital calculations.

It's sure not golf as I know it! I'm living in the past with slow greens !

Actually, no. Putts do not start bouncing on NewYork City public courses.
