Not even close. Scottie still has nearly twice as many points he's so far ahead it's ridiculous. Rankings are irrelevant now without the LIV players anyway.

I don't really care about points. Just using the eye-test, Scotties still on another level, but Xander is giving him a run now with the confidence that comes from winning majors.

Xander's kicked on massively this year. Top 10 in all 4 majors and obviously won the two (that Open was absolutely brutal and he looked totally in control - despite the conditions the whole time) hasn't missed a cut and every time ive watched he always seems around the mark. Just a super efficient all-rounder. Rarely see him in trouble.

If Scottie could just sink putts he'd be on a complete other level though. His putting at the Open cost him a shot at winning it really. He handled the conditions pretty well tbh. But not being able to consistently sink putts kills him. He knows it too, you can see it in his face every time one he should be sinking misses, or he leaves a long putt miles short.

Was a great weekend of links golf at it finest. Really sorts out the guys with complete, consistent games

Xander is really pushing Scottie for that number 1 player mantle now. Just so consistent AND he can putt.

I love it when the course humbles the best players, Troon doing it today but Lowry unfortunately crumbling

[Irishnev]

Lowry taking over from Darren Clarke as the Irish links master, in the lead at the half wat point

[Jas]

Tough old conditions at Troon, currently only 2 holes playing below par.

Watched highlights of the Scottish Open - that Bob McIntyre looks a proper player. Buzzo, looks like ye have a goodun coming through there

Billion Pound Bottler!

McIlroy never winning another major - he absolutely choked on the last 3 holes last night. Two missed putts - 3 and 5 feet

Edit…. it was worse

“ Four birdies in the space of five holes from the ninth had given McIlroy a two-shot lead in pursuit of a fifth major title and first since 2014, only for the world number three to bogey three of the last four holes.

That devastating run included missed par putts of two feet, six inches and three feet, nine inches on the 16th and 18th respectively “

To be fair that one was of the most boring Masters I can remember. Scheffler is amazing, and it's not his fault but he's so good he's boring.

[Buzzo]

Yeah same, and I have a months SKY subscription.

It just was not interesting at all.

[Irishnev]

LIV has ****ed golf to the stage where I barely watch the Masters over the weekend….. oh and Scheffler won!
