Re: Who\'s idea was it to hold a major in August in Oklahoma???

Interesting. I'm sure you know more about this than me. You don't think a player like Tim Herron or John Daly or Phil Mickelson is at a disadvantage in the extreme heat?

Nope for at least two reasons. One, this isn't extreme heat. The media will try to make a big deal out of it but it's probably harder on the golf course than anything. Those bent grass greens are going to be syringed frequently. Ask golfers on the Asian Tours about extreme heat and humidity. Two, as I said, this is business as usual. Many tournaments this time of year are played in warm weather. The golfers are more than used to it. They simply drink lots of fluids and perhaps don't practice as much.
