  1. Loved all 4 days watching them struggling out the rough and bunkers was a joy to watch, no -20 rounds that were used to just brilliant, hope Portrush are watching and set up similar

  2. Burns got * over majorly with not being able to take relief from the puddle he found himself in. Can’t help but think if that had been certain other players they’d have got relief without question.

    Thought it was a great tournament to watch though, makes for enjoyable viewing when they’re struggling badly as opposed to the usual birdie fests we’re used to watching.

    I don't mind seeing them struggle for a change, but I don't think well executed shots should be punished so often as they were. Almost impossible to stick the greens at times and when a tee/approach shot into the wrong slope sends you into unplayable rough it's not really a test of skill but a fair amount of luck.

    Think there's better ways of testing a golfer than giving them unplayable surfaces to play on.
     
  4. That’s the ultimate choke from fleetwood. That’ll hurt for a long time
     
  5. Fleetwood absolutely shat it. Some finish from Bradley, but for Fleetwood not to make par from where he was is a total bottle job. Could see it coming too.

    Gotterup deserved it for that -11 under round alone tbf, solid round today as well. McIlroy just couldn't find the birdies when required.

    It's never gonna happen for Fleetwood, is it.
     
  8. He is a shitebag. A very rich one granted.
     
  9. Fleetwood Thursday-Saturday is an absolutely elite player, then on Sunday turns into a challenge tour level one. Could see that collapse coming a mile off and it’s now becoming an if not when kind of situation for him.

    Come on Robert MacINTYRE after rounds of 62 and 64 he is a five shot lead going into the third round today of the big BMW Championship , the menacing world number one Scottie Scheffler is in 2nd position. So come on Bob doing it for :scotland: and my each way bet at 50/1:biggrin:

    I think he will do it today and it will be a massive boost for his expanding career leading to several major wins in the coming seasons. Scotland's next international sporting superstar is arriving.

    That long put for birdie at the last yesterday is what Scheffler does to people and he had it done to him.

  14. His putting was incredible so many par saves. He wins this, it propels his career to the very top. Great to see

  15. Horror start here, he’s taking the * with how slow he’s playing too. Aimpoint for a 1 footer is a complete joke too.

    Pressure got to Bob today. But he will use this disappointment to his advantage. :scotland:

  18. MacIntyre 2 shots off the lead this week again.

    Some prize money in this as well something like $25million to the winner, $15million to 2nd place and $7.5million to 3rd place they said.

    Could retire after winning this, think I seen recently he moved back to Scotland to live.
