    Links golf is where the sport began, and where many believe it’s still at its very best. Carved through coastal dunes and battered by sea winds, links courses offer a raw, elemental test that rewards imagination, creativity, and patience. No two rounds are ever the same. Firm turf, unpredictable bounces, deep revetted bunkers, and shifting weather make links golf as exhilarating as it is humbling.

    Saturday might be “moving day” in most tournaments, but at Oakmont, simply standing still could be considered a victory. With its punishing rough, narrow fairways, and devilish greens, the course they call “The Beast” has taken down some serious names already.

    Imagine shooting a ridiculous 11-under-par 56. Breaking your home course record by six shots. And not winning the comp. That’s exactly what happened at Wolston Park Golf Club in Queensland, Australia, last week. Matthew Frohmuller, the club’s head greenkeeper and a +3 handicapper, delivered the round of his life in a Saturday stableford at the par-67 layout just outside Brisbane. You’d think that would be enough to waltz away with the win. But the handicap system had other ideas.
