“You ought to have to listen to your feet and adjust to the conditions"

Lorne Rubenstein catches up with past USGA president Bill Williams...

“The USGA wishes to test players' course management, nerves and heart, and not just their mechanical skills,” Williams said.

Along those lines, he favours varied conditions within a course. Why not, for instance, have sand of different consistency in some bunkers?

“You ought to have to listen to your feet and adjust to the conditions,” Williams said. “There ought to be some bunkers where the player worries about it.”
