Doral - Tough Enough?

by Dale Chavez on March 23rd, 2007

Was watching the CA Championship on the Golf Channel this evening and I was just wondering if the famed “Blue Monster” is actually a tough enough course for these guys. Yes, 18 can be a tough hole, especially on Sunday coming in, but in general it’s a flat course and though it has lots of bunkers, they are manicured quite nicely and the players are not having too many problems getting out of them.

If the World Golf Championships is associated with a tournament and golf course, it should be near the cream of the crop in toughness. Yeah, I know, Doral was chosen because of all the reshuffling of tournaments that came about due to the FedEx Cup, and not necessarily because it was a top-caliber test.

And it reality, I don’t see the WGC events lasting much longer anyway, as they are just not generating the type of numbers that the “suits” in PGA Central like to see. And because this is a limited-field event, it doesn’t give guys on the Masters bubble a chance to finally qualify for Augusta.
