The Skinny:
Jack Nicklaus thought he was making a helpful suggestion in 1968 when he expressed the opinion that a large mound in the fairway at drive length was unfair. When he came back for the Open seven years later it had been replaced by a deep bunker which bears his name. The fairway is also threatened by out of bounds on the left and a drainage ditch uncomfortably close in the right rough. Considerable reshaping has been carried out inmounds and hollows added to the bunkers, which guard the long green.
