Can't say enough about the Olympic course. It's proof golf is better when it's a test of thought and execution - and not simply execution

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

[Mike Clayton @mikeclaytongolf]

@KyleFranzGolf @benjaminwarren @suohgolf The boss on your Biarritz. Perfect.

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

@MichaelClayto15 essential component of all public and private courses! @suohgolf keep dialling in those ground game shots. Good luck!

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

@KyleFranzGolf @MichaelClayto15 not long before Rio youngsters and beginners can enjoy a little bit of @NorthBerwickGol style goodness!

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

I was hoping someone like yourself might get a kick out of that! Super fun complex to work on with @KyleFranzGolf https://t.co/enCGTA8rfC

[Mike Clayton @mikeclaytongolf]

Seems no one has found the Biarritz green on the extra practice fairway in Rio Doubles as little par 3 course.

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

@RuMacdonald chances of a brexit-inspired Scottish team Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020?

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

@HochsteinDesign great memories and was very cool to have you out there.

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

@HochsteinDesign great pics as always!

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

@HochsteinDesign yes the @Rio2016 course is looking/playing superb. Outstanding job from Gil & the team. Hope Olympic golf is here to stay!

[Benjamin Warren @benjaminwarren]

Aerial study of Oakmont without trees, with, and without again! Sure looks good in its current form!
