Pete Dye tees off on bellyaching Tour pros, the USGA and retirement

When Keegan Bradley played the Ocean Course last April, he described it as brutal. Is that just another pro whining about one of your courses?

The great thing about that course is the back tee where the pros are screaming and yelling. And yet play from the white markers there is up 15 to 20 percent this year, and their repeat business is good. You get a golf course where people come in and pay that kind of fee [$343 for non-resort guests] and there are 40,000 rounds a year -- well, then, some pros crying is okay. Hell, I can't think of anything better.
