What format should a Major Playoff be?

By June 17, 2008December 3rd, 2014No Comments

Should the US Open ditch the 18 hole playoff format? Some people claim a sudden death playoff is not a fair test, losing a Major Championship to one bad shot. Well in the end that was what decided this Championship, a wayward tee shot from Mediate on the 1st ‘Sudden Death’ hole.

If the format was the same as the British Open then Mediate would be the Champion. Which do you prefer 18 hole playoffs (US Open), 3-4 hole playoffs (British Open, PGA Championship) or sudden death playoffs (US Masters)?
