Muirfield Village to play shorter, have slower greens for Workday Charity Open

Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, will host back-to-back PGA Tour events this week and next. First up is the Workday Charity Open, followed by the Memorial. But the course will play differently for each tournament. According to a memo sent to players, Workday will feature a variety of tee boxes that are expected to make the course shorter. The rough will be 3½ inches tall and the green surfaces will run about 11 on the Stimpmeter. The Memorial will have higher rough and green speeds are planned to increase to 13-13½ on the Stimpmeter. And while there’s no official word yet, Tiger Woods is expected by many to play the Memorial.
