Jeff Rosenberg, P.B. Dye Club's Head Golf Professional, elaborates: "We've certainly listened to the comments of our players and changed some things.We eliminated a few bunkers, redid a couple greens - made 'em more reasonable, more receptive.We grew some rough, allowed a higher cut of grass around some of the holes, just so the ball didn't roll down the slopes of the greens as much."
"Everything was done to make the course a little more friendly, so the more difficult up and downs aren't quite as hard," Rosenberg said.
...
But Rosenberg also says the course has always looked harder than it's played: "You know, it's got a little more flare than the average course, but that's what gives it its character.
...
That's where you score here," Rosenberg added.

Rosenberg says he's proud of it: "Overall, I think our conditioning is up there with the best private clubs.I've gone around on a lot of pro tournaments throughout this summer, and I haven't found greens in better shape than ours - through the drought, anyway.G2 is a warm weather grass, so it likes the heat."
"Having seen the other places, I feel really fortunate being here.Sometimes when you work at 'The Palm' you gotta try steak somewhere else to know how good you have it," Rosenberg quipped.
...
Rosenberg says Dye likes to create challenging inward holes, because they often decide the winners of sporting golf matches.
