The US Open, The Masters, The Open Championship, and the PGA Championship are not part of the PGA TOUR. The Canadian Open was once considered the 5th Major as it should be. Break away from the PGA and choose your own date against some pointless, regular whistle stop on the PGA tour. Place it so it's not right before or right after one of the other majors. Market the Triple Crown and add a bonus of a million dollars if someone wins all three. The big hitters will come and not just because they have to. Or join the European Tour is a possibility. Either way having the PGA Tour dictate is bad news. As for the course there were lots of pros who appreciated the older, tight course of Hamilton and Shaughnessy. I understand about crowds etc but with golf changing etc there are lots of courses around that could probably be altered to handle the pros and the crowds.
