OOPS!

What happened here?
After the 18th hole during one of the Monday events, the players were directed to the putting green to participate in a putting contest. This was a large event and each player was to make a putt from a certain spot. The dead turf you see in the photo is the result of the wear from all of the players repeatedly putting from the exact same spot.

"It is an important thing in golf to make holes look much more difficult than they really are. People get more pleasure out of doing a hole which looks almost impossible and yet is not so difficult as it appears."
Dr. Alister Mackenzie, "The Spirit of St. Andrews"
