LOS ANGELES : Brooks Koepka criticized the Los Angeles Country Club on Friday, saying the North Course was yielding scores too low for a U.S. Open and finding fault with its unusual layout.
"I think it should be around par," Koepka said when asked what an appropriate score should be at a U.S. Open, which prides itself on being the toughest challenge in golf. The par-70 course nestled beside Beverly Hills features wide fairways, thick rough, a winding steep-walled ravine known as a barranca and four par-threes that vary dramatically in length.
Cloudy and cool conditions have also been a factor. Southern California has experienced an unusually aggressive marine layer for much of the spring that has blanketed Los Angeles in a stubborn layer of fog.
