    @JK I only played there once, and was Ambrose.

    NZ is pretty blessed with plenty of quality golf courses and most are reasonably priced, I am not sure what costs were exactly at GHCC, but from what I gather were not cheap, even by Auckland standards, and when the course isnt top notch, not sure you are gonna get much traction.

    Its a great ambrose course - particularly with carts.

    Well, up until this current owner changed the management team out and started running it purposely as a loss, it made money, and enough to cover costs etc. Unfortunately not enough to fund a desperately needed clubhouse upgrade, but that was far from a priority of the current owner anyway.

    Last year green fees were $180 to $200 for a non-affiliate and $130 for an affiliate, but came down more recently. Hard to justify paying that when like you say its not in top notch, or anywhere near it.

    That Open really needed a Harman crumble or someone to shoot 63 to challenge him.

    To be fair, you’d have got wet.

    @taniwharugby not bad at all. To come back after that triple bogey and play the way he did was nothing short of amazing and to beat a field that had the whole European Ryder Cup team playing!
    The significance of this win is huge for him. Will pretty much guarantee him a PGA Tour Card for 2024

    So good. That recovery shot on 15 was just madness. Amazing resilience after that early triple!

    Four of those birdie putts, including the last one, he knew the ball was going in - he was already walking towards the hole before the ball got there.

    Short par 4 it may be, but an ace on a 4 is the business

    Hovland and Aberg just won 9&7. Biggest win ever in the Ryder Cup. Won 9 of 11 holes and halved 2. Against Scheffler & Koepka. Ridiculous

    What an incredible turn around in 2 years. Scheffler looked broken after that this morning. Then Cantlay basically fell apart on 16 and 17 greens to hand the match to Rahm and Hatton.
