Slightly cherrypicked as the four winners prior to this stretch were Spieth/Kaymer/Rose/Simpson who are all decidedly not bombers, but still kind of alarming.
The NoLayingUp guys think that Bryson dominating the next couple of years is the best chance at having the ball rolled back. He really does rattle a lot of people who are close to the game, which became more apparent as the broadcast increased their focus on him the past two days. But with how stubborn the USGA and the R&A are...
Exactly. You can't make golf courses 8000 yards. Roll the ball back. If you gain 50 pounds, you'll still have an advantage, but it won't be proportionally as great.
Until then, long rough and narrow fairways is not the answer for the big championships. None of the top players hit a lot of fairways, and when you have wedge into every hole, even if you are in deep rough, you aren't often in much trouble. Until then, they need to find some middle ground with the fairways, and firm up greens significantly. I also wouldn't be completely against adding additional OB hazards to golf courses. It'll make these guys actually consider the clubs they hit off the tee instead of bombing and gauging.
