I mean, you, you have to hit it solid and really conceive your iron shots correctly to hold the greens.
The targets are so small on the greens themselves.
To me, it's a second shot golf course.
And you know,
It's interesting.
They've allowed the fairways to be wider this year.
John Bodenhammer was just talking about that.
And, you know, I think they want they want to see the artistry from the fairway with the irons and let that be the determiner of who's the best player.
And I think that's actually the most beautiful kind of golf because then you see.
You know, it's a physical challenge.
Great athletic, I think, act to hit a really solid compressed iron shot that's well shaped and, you know, is the right trajectory and all those things that go into a really great iron shot into a great green complex.
And see that over and over.

But, you know, Jack, Jack didn't go pin hunting a lot, but man, he hit a million greens and he always hit the right shot.

He goes, he's just relentless with that.
It doesn't miss greens, hits the right shot, can hold the greens when they get really, really firm in majors.
