It's nice to be missed.

As you very well know I have never been a "links golf" guy. That was because my limited, but privileged experience with the concept came from my one round at The Old Course.

That was until I played Royal Porthcawl in Wales. Oh my God! Absolutely awesome golf! One hole after another of great architecture. I have found a new hobby - studying links layouts.

OK Mike, you found your way over there. I want a spot in your next four-ball at the Old Course. Play you straight, up, like always. Someday, laddie.
