@mikeclaytongolf @cdpgolf1 Clayts people wear jeans and T-shirt in clubhouse at my golf club very casual and relaxed atmosphere 👍🏻

@mgwp1 To me looks more like a lions mouth without the bunker - P XI?

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@jeffwarnegolf More chance for an American win? 😎

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@CambridgeGrey @jamierkennedy Great example that shows why you need a GCA to do the design works - thank goodness Nelson was still around to try and recapture what was there before

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@CambridgeGrey @jamierkennedy Clifford Robert’s design? 🧐

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@Hainesy76 Wow Augusta looks more natural and the 12th green looks more undulating

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@CambridgeGrey @jamierkennedy No second shot on 8? It’s a challenging shot it you hit it bang on then it’s a greater chance of eagle especially in the fourth round

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@Hainesy76 @cookiejargolf Agree and if Mac had been around I would have thought it would be different to what maxwell had produced and RTJ especially with 16th

@stephenjones9 It needs someone that really understands the soul of Welsh rugby RKC was more focused in ‘business’ models and ruthlessness which doesn’t really work when it comes to rugby in Wales which can be sensitive

Onwards and upwards 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏉

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@cookiejargolf So underrated and really good course each hole is so different plus it’s fun to play

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@BeauDesertGolf Definitely after it’s a massive improvement maybe in future club could relocate road further away from rear of green and update clubhouse which is looking tired IMO

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@stephenjones9 @SBarnesRugby Does that mean Eddie James at 12 rather than 13?

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@PhilRugby I do know that the CEO doesn’t live in Wales but just up the road from where I live 🤔

[Ben Stephens @BenStephensArch]

@stephenjones9 One Welshman replacing another 💪🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

@SustainableTall It’s more to do with cost throughout the whole spectrum with bigger profit margins its the modern version of Dickensian slums

@GlennRo57727963 @JackoRugby This is also evident with coaches in the NFL it’s buying out the covenant which can cost extra but it would be worth it
