Usually a fun championship to watch. Last year was probably one of the better final rounds I’ve watched. Leaving a link below to a lengthy breakdown of the course.

Rory. Rahm.

Longshot; Keegan Bradley. It wouldn't surprise me to see Padraig Harrington play well.

That is what we have called it in the USA for decades but that is not what the tournament is truly called, and often not played in Britain.

My favorite pro golf watching and listening week of the year. Love the British radio coverage.

Rory is primed, and Rahm’s my guy, but I don’t think it’s gonna be either one. My pick is Hovland.

I am fully prepared to be very wrong.

If he makes any putts, you are probably right.

it's his local course? Or he's the golfer in the field most familiar with this links course; although 17 (140 yd par 3 to a small back-of-a-spoon green) is new to everyone this tourney.

Good choices. Pulling for Rory.

Watch out for Rickie Fowler, too. He's played well at this course before. (I think Rory won it.)

I love the fact that when I wake up tomorrow morning a major will be on my TV.

This one’s my favorite cuz you can watch it the first half of the work day and then just blow off the second half of the work day.

Your guy is off to a good start, Hawger. Should Fleetwood be in the mix on Sunday, I would definitely be pulling for him over everybody except Rickie and Rory.

Rickie launched those 2 out of bounds on 18 to absolutely kill a solid round.

Edit:
Apparently he got heckled for not following thru with JT and Jordan in buying the Leeds soccer team. :lol:

TV crew is allocating a decent amount of coverage to a fat guy hitting balls on the beach.

He needs more cigarettes and diet Coke.

I’m just saying…they somehow avoided showing Rickie shoot an 8 on 18 but I’ve seen a rando Englishman hit several shots in basketball shorts and flip flops.

I'm sure to tune it a bit more over the weekend. Hoping the weather kicks up a bit.

So far, the weather is holding. Supposed to rain later today/tomorrow.

Rahm struggling to make the cut. Rory’s putter is cold. Harman has had four birdies and two great par saves.

Going to be a fun weekend.

I'd like to see Spieth and Homa claw into the mix. Harman to be -10 and trying to run away a bit.

Rory had 23 putts thru 15 holes or something like that, I don't think that is a cold putter.

Yeah, that was a bit later on overall, but earlier he missed a short birdie putt that he second-guessed himself on. He just seems to be treading water after two rounds, but all he needs is to hang in there and get on a decent run tomorrow.

While I’m happy for Harman, I don’t get the feeling he’s gonna run away with this.
