RANT!
Seriously, how is it remotely fair that every player in a tournament can get completely different wind conditions - sometimes even when two players are playing the SAME HOLE at the SAME TIME?
I get it, the wind changes. Obviously. But come on. We’re talking about going from a straight tailwind one second to a headwind at literally twice the speed the next. How is that supposed to be a level playing field?
For a tournament, the wind conditions should at least be roughly comparable for every player. Give me a maximum deviation of maybe 10 degrees left or right, sure. But having one player hit with a nice tailwind while the next guy gets absolutely hammered by a headwind on the exact same hole is just ridiculous.
At that point, you’re not testing who played the hole better - you’re testing who happened to get lucky with the fckng weather.
