New "bunker" mentality at Memorial: Jack’s rakes + sand bunkers + no advance warning = player bickering
Mulligan has already posted on the bunker controversy at the Memorial here. The facts seem to bear out mulligan’s point, I almost hate to admit.
As the Columbus Dispatch reported today (here), Joe Ogilvie is one of four players on the PGA Tour policy board. “It’s a communication issue,” the Lancaster native said. “I don’t think there would be nearly be the controversy here if the PGA Tour and the Memorial Tournament had communicated to the players. We’ve got terrible communication on the tour, period.”
Later, that was the major concession made by PGA onsite tournament director Slugger White. “Looking back, probably we should have prepped these guys (players) a little earlier, and I’ll take the blame for that.”
