The Walker Cup at Merion was one of my favorite if not favorite golf viewing experience. Better than corporate tents at Shinnecock, Baltusrol and Winged Foot. Better than 18th hole Skybox tickets at the Deutsche Bank with Martinis and Lobster sandwiches ( for over a decade !).
Even better still that I have been fortunate to play many rounds at Merion and know the course well. Have been trying to get to another Walker Cup since then without success.
With no ropes - Ricky Fowler tapped me on the shoulder and asked me and my son to move so he could access his ball in the 14th fairway at Merion.
