First I stand corrected....It seens that we are getting Wolf Creek. As for turning away from major venues. At least for Bandon it is a major venue.
The U.S. Amatuer is considered a major.
Just an FYI...and not meant to be mean in any which way...
you stand corrected again as the US Amateur isn’t considered a major. If it were Jack Nicklaus would have 20 major wins, not 18, and Tiger Woods would have 17 major wins and not only 14.
Back when Bobby Jones won his Grand Slam two of those wins were the US & British Amateur Championships. As time went on, and the status of amateur golf changed, so did the status of “major” for those two tournaments.
Now, with the above being stated, I’m in no way belittling Bandon and hope we get that full venue here on WGT.
