I think it would be safe to assume that the US open will never return to Chambers Bay. Players whining about the set up is to be expected at this tournament, but this is on an entirely different level- seems to be unanimous that the course is not US open material and the players are way more vocal about it than ever before. The course is almost unwalkable, the fan viewing areas are so far away from the players, the greens are bumpy, and the slope around the greens is just a little too extreme- US open or not, a ball should never roll 130yds away from being 2 yds off the intended target.
