I haven't even played it. Then don't comment. You're making a fool of yourself. Edit: and just read the OP again. You're making even more of a fool of yourself.

I've just played it and stand by my comments. Or am I not allowed to voice my opinion. Watch out here come the lefty cancel brigade.

This is not lefty cancel brigade, this is you having a bad opinion and others asking you to clarify it. Because it’s clear you don’t know what you’re talking about. Plus you don’t help yourself by being surprisingly unsure about whether you have played the course you are criticising...
You have options galore, greens that reward good shots and punish bad ones and a wide variety of hole designs. You can’t hit driver everywhere and you have to be precise on a short course. There’s a lot of width off the tee meaning you can choose where you play your approaches from to best target the areas on the green.
By all means say you don’t like it, but it’s not garbage and it’s an excellently designed course. If you can articulate why you don’t like it with good examples, go ahead. But this sort of post is the perfect example of why platinum players have a bad reputation - you moan without any examples or in fact any understanding of what good design (options, variety, strategic interest) actually is.

And this course and pick is a disgrace. Wadey runs a Taylormade society where he plays and tests all his courses and goes off few top rank players opinions before he sets it. I have a society with bout 20 member's and this would not get a run even if i knew the designer. I use to be big on tgc and people playing. Back on tgc 19 wadey had me as admin been an inforcer. Trying to be a big clean society. Its become a big joke. Every email I get is asking for donations. I don't mind as they put in a lot of effort and work. But this course and design is pure rubbish. The lag from holes 13 to 18 is a deal breaker.

I know the designer is a very good one and has done great designs in the past. But in my honest opinion this type of design is getting boring. Sand everywhere and ridiculous greens where once theyre ramped up to 187 they'll be impossible.

There is no lag on this course on PC so I will take your word for it. That’s unfortunate but you simply wouldn’t know and you’d need to question rangers rather than attacking the course or the designer.
Where to start with the other critiques? Saying that you being good at playing the game means you know when a course is good or not is a fallacy. Beyond lag, which I can accept, even though it’s not on the designer, you still haven’t given any examples of what constitutes bad design or a poor course.
Oh, apart from ‘sand everywhere’ which is a style choice. Are any of those bunkers placed unfairly? Any comment on strategy or are you just going on personal preference? If so, calling the course garbage is still your opinion but you haven’t backed it up. You not liking it does not mean it is a bad course.

The fact that you think it does is hilarious. You saying you don’t like it is fine - we can disagree there. You saying it is garbage requires you to justify using principles you do not understand, which you cannot do.

I've just played it and stand by my comments. Or am I not allowed to voice my opinion. Watch out here come the lefty cancel brigade. That’s it. Play the victim. Right on queue.

Op: This is garbage, can't believe it was picked, sort it out, plenty of other choices.
Also OP: Here's the lefty brigade to cancel everything.

Just played and actually enjoyed the greens and approach looks a good bit. Not my favorite style of course but that’s personal opinion. I think with a good setup could play quite well on tour.
