Who is the best waste bunker/beach player currently on tour? I'm picking them.

I'm thinking someone that can play well out of that crap or not hit it at all.....with 7600 yds and what sounds like pretty slim fairways, I'm guessing players could be hitting second shots out of that stuff 5+ times per round if the overall fairways hit % is around 60% (PGA Avg).

That's potentially 20 second shots out of crud like this over the course of the tournament:


It looks like every fairway has waste areas around it. Maybe it won't matter at all an they'll be able to hit greens out of there with no probs.

I'll just pick a crafty island based Euro.......Graeme "MacDougal." On second thoughts Bubba can probably play out of that stuff all day long no problem.

Watson, in contrast, appeared psyched out by a Pinehurst course that he said, “didn’t fit his eye,” and neutralized his power game. “I’m not very good laying up,” he said.

Watson’s dream of the grand slam looked to go up in smoke when he made a double bogey at the par-5 10th to drop to 5 over. While he mostly stuck to his conservative game plan, Watson banged driver on several occasions but hit only 8 of 14 fairways. When asked to name his worst lie of the day, he answered, “All of them.”

“Today wasn’t my day for ball-striking,” he said. “Come out tomorrow and try to play better, that’s it. If I don’t, I’ll get ready for next week.”

Lexi just putted from a greenside bunker/waste area onto the green and made a 3 footer for par birdie.

Lucy Li just owns.
