The Golf Thread

Yeah true. A few of the big US players are slightly off form too?

Rahm's 29 on the par 37 back 9 including a bogey was one of the most remarkable stretches of golf I've ever seen.

Really pleased for Lowry though, he's been knocking on the door a bit and deserved a win before the year is out.

Was thinking how the Ryder Cup prospects look a little brighter for next year.

McIlroy
Rahm
Fitzpatrick
Hovland
Lowry
Hatton
Fleetwood

With the rest from the likes of Rose, Molinari (finding a bit of form finally) Hojgaard, Migliozzi, Detry, Pieters, Noren, Perez

Lowry win at Wentworth today - McIlroy joint second with Rahm

[Shaggy]

Yes that's fair. I ****ing hate him.

I can't believe you're watching it!

It is free on YouTube and convenient to watch! I only watched the last few holes and just kept skipping to the players in with a chance of winning.

Watched about 3 hrs golf in 15 minutes

Worth it to see the big Tory Westwood absolutely bottle it and chunk a wedge into the bunker from about 100 yards

Would love to know what pep talk they had before they were sent on stage.

"get on stage and sell it!"

In both instances.

It's a stage full of men who're absolutely jacked to the tits because they know they're soon to be amongst the richest men on the planet.

The other is Bill gates and his pals

I can't believe you're watching it!

My thoughts exactly but tbh outside of majors/Players and RC I’d have v little interest these days

The end of the LIV golf was actually good yesterday. Westwood chunked a LW into a bunker and bottled a place in the play-offs.

Cam Smith also was a bit of a bottle job too. He really should have made the play-off but threw in a bogey to miss out.

Then in the playoff DJ holed a 40fter that was going about 20ft past the hole to win.

Obviously when you have a finish like that it still makes for good entertainment, but the final couple of holes, with everyone finishing at the same time on random holes around the course, is confusing as **** to follow. The players were confused as to where they stood too.

And finally the lack of having the leaders head to head down the final few holes is rubbish. Takes all the psychology and pressure out of it. Stupid format.

Totally embarrassing isn't it. Hard cringe. Reminded me of this.

He waited until right after the Fedex payday then

The Tour Championship final round was epic TV by the way. LIV golf, politics aside, is a shambolic mess of a format. Terrible TV.
