If they want to fix something, find a way to fix the ridiculous tee shot on #17.

My guess is the sod was being worn down by people taking selfies and standing around waiting for others to do the same.
The club owners probably decided to add the stonework , so the people won’t wear out the grass any more...............

What people need to understand is that St. Andrews is a functioning public golf course. It undoubtedly gets a lot of wear and tear during the year.
To: Rummyfan
I would have least sanded down the cobblestone so it’d look like it’s been there forever
It looks more like 70s era Formica.

Heh heh... Looking at the outer edge of the new “patio”, I’d say they can expect some trip-and-fall lawsuits. Shoulda left it the way it was.

They shoulda called Al Czervik

Dang... that looks awful!!
Thankfully, I made it there last summer, three days before the start of The Open. I got my photos on the traditional bridge
