Video: Old Course At St. Andrews First & Second Hole Flyovers
/The opener is all on Old Tom Morris, who made the first hole into what we've come to know as one of the game's great starts with its wide fairway and green guarded by the burn. Old Tom widened things out to the right in course modifications that also included some bizarro burying of old ships to shore up the course from flooding (let's agree to not go there).
The flyover:
And the second hole features two new absurd jacuzzi bunkers on the epic green that I am happy to predict will make this hole play easier (scoring average-wise) in The Open (here are the 2010 averages). Give modern players definition where they didn't have it before and you almost guarantee making things easier for them.
