Rose is hitting it really well.
Brown so impressive so far.

You just know Burns, Horschell or Henley will win it.Yeah anyone 1 over and below should be in with a chance…hopefully another journeyman doesn’t take it this year…
My pick is Lawrence.You just know Burns, Horschell or Henley will win it.
Would never bet on finau, one of those elite players who I have no confidence will ever win a major. Fleetwood falls into that category too.Could probably have got better than 350-1 on Lawrence if I'd shopped around, but only did bets at all because my free bet-builder on the Euros final came in so Skybet it was. I like Saffies in the Open, they can generally play in the wind. Good thing he is doing well because the rest of my bets are ****e. Finau, Matsuyama, Koepka, Morikawa {very disappointed in Colin today, thought he'd push on) and some others at similar odds to Lawrence, who I won't deign to name.
Was listening to matt Wallace earlier in the week on talksport. They asked him if a 15 handicap golfer played this course against him who would win. Wallace would start each hole on the tee and the 15 handicapper would start in a position on the green chosen by Wallace.What do you think you could shoot there
Full disclosure
I have an official handicap of 12.6 but that’s by putting in the bare minimum number of cards irrespective of how I play
Rarely play the blacks
Haven’t played a club event in eons
Let’s say I’m a handy 18 on a good course
No way that I break 100 & probably be a lot more with lots of lost balls
Likely that there’s a few holes where I am completely fkd after my tee shot as a few of the pros barely made the fairway
Fleetwood’s body language has been strange all weekWould never bet on finau, one of those elite players who I have no confidence will ever win a major. Fleetwood falls into that category too.
I have always been a pretty good putter but could imagine putting up some big numbers before even making the greenWas listening to matt Wallace earlier in the week on talksport. They asked him if a 15 handicap golfer played this course against him who would win.

Wallace said you would struggle to putt into the hole in 5 shots. Therefore giving you a round of 90.
I’d be surprised if it was much differentHe said he wouldn't necessarily put you on the furthest part of the green from the hole. There are some areas closer which you would end up further away than where you started.
As a keen golf watcher but not a player I'm interested to know how much harder they make this course this week compared to a regular week when your normal members and guests play?
Aside from moving the tees back, and cutting the greens shorter, what could they do??He said he wouldn't necessarily put you on the furthest part of the green from the hole. There are some areas closer which you would end up further away than where you started.

Maybe allow the grass to grow a bit longer near the bunkers so that not every ball rolls in?Aside from moving the tees back, what could they do??
