I like Dougherty too. Ewen Murray is still the don though imo.

[Shaggy]

Honestly I swear Scheffler hasn't missed a putt inside 20 feet for 6 months. Unbelievable. Holes everything.

New leader, DJ at -9. Adam Scott only 2 back now after a 65.

The leaderboard is pretty nicely stacked to be honest.

[Shaggy]

Still got the best swing on the tour imo, Adam Scott.

If the weather stays like this and no wind they could eat it up - Rory in good form, Cam Smith a good shout and loads more. If it was windy one of oldies would be in with a shout but dry and fast and the scores will be too low for them

[Pablo]

Cam Smith absolutely tearing it up. What a player.

[Pablo]

To be fair these were pretty obvious shouts. I hear City and Liverpool could go well in the Premier League this year

I backed them and DJ - I always back DJ, it’s like Shaggy and Rahm

[Liverpool]

I'm amazed by the lack of backlash for LIV golfers, I'd be lashing their ball out of bounds when it was time to go home after getting a full days golf

I've been doing Rahm and Smith at every major for about 2 years now.

Smith's putting is an absolute joke. I've genuinely never seen anything like it.

I wondered about that.

Golf crowds too posh for protest?

That’s why he was a must on a hard St Andrew’s - you are right though…..home of golf or not unless it’s windy they eat it up. Majors should be won around -10 max. I remember Paul Lawrie winning on +7

It’s just links golf isn’t it?

If it’s good weather the jeopardy is almost totally removed so it becomes a different game. We can blame global warming - typically it would be blowing a gale.

I’m not a fan of links courses really, but due to the history I don’t see things changing, the Open will always head to St Andrews as part of the cycle.

I get all that but put the pins in ******* hard places, let the rough grow like a meadow and narrow the fairways

[Shaggy]

I think there's only one (or two) vague doglegs on the course. No course would ever be designed like that now - all dead straight, vast wide fairways. Don't get me wrong the place is magical but I think the game has sort of overtaken it now.
