The Open

[theclaw]

Anyone else in to Golf,love the Majors.St Andrews is going to be bone dry and extremely fast.
I’m going for Bryson DeChambeau EW bet.If he can keep the tee shot straight he really could rip it up 66/1
Who’s your choice?

was there in '78 for 4 days. Saw Nakijima [?] take 9 at the 17th, 5 or 6 to get out of the bunker !

Surely you don’t need to be that accurate with your driving at St Andrews? DeChambeua is one of those LIV money grabbers isn’t he, anyone but them as far as I’m concerned.

Awesome

Fancy Fitz or Rory

[Eric the Half a Bee]

Who can forget Van De Velde on the last, 3 shots clear at Carnoustie?

[Des Parrot]

St.Andrews is a wolf in sheep clothing. Every shot is a lottery & the tee shot on the 17th, well, ridiculous for mere humans

[BlueArmy 86]

The LIV players don't seem to be playing well at the majors

[William Treseder]

Bad 1st hole for Tiger

[theclaw]

3 under for Bryson,not to bad first day.

[William Treseder]

Scott Sheffler for me

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Booing of the money boys

Which is fair enough

Welsh golfers seem few and far off the pace. Seem to be lacking some Welsh talent for a while now.

Wales’ most hard working golfer is otherwise engaged in Los Angeles at the moment.

Good watch on the Losers series.

St Andrew’s isn’t looking good. Some of those greens look dreadful.

Spoke too soon. Dustin co-leading and a few other LIVs going well.

The old course taking a hammering. Over 60 players under par after two rounds. Nowadays there's very little happening off the greens. With the march of club and ball technology it's becoming a glorified putting competition. Still, it suits the American audiences.

I agree, I've barely bothered with it over the last two days - the big hitters can now just whack the ball past the defences links courses had in place to make them a fair contest for all and St Andrews suffers the most out of all of the courses on the Open roster if there is not a decent strength wind blowing to make it the sort of test you'd expect for one of golf's majors.

watching players reach the 18th green off the tee said it all, lost its appeal somewhat.

The ball seems to roll forever, but I’m still enjoying it. Should be a good final day tomorrow. Rory in good shape.

I'd love to see the Open moved to October. It's supposed to be the ultimate test of links golf, but when there's no wind, rolling mist or rain, it doesn't really meet the criteria.

Dustin is a good price
