Wee-Bey Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I don't think Boab is out of the reckoning yet for the Ryder Cup, but he desperately needs a DP Tour win alongside some solid performances in the next couple of weeks. That was a couple of huge wins for both Straka and Hojgaard at the weekend. I'd say the top 10 in this list are looking highly likely to qualify or be given a pick, leaving the other 10 plus Adberg fighting for 2 spots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee-Bey Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 The Yanks have unreal strength in depth tbh, you could add Theegala, Bryson and DJ on to this list as potential picks, but Johnson is going to have to make some tough calls with Thomas in particular and Finau's form falling off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sad to say but I think they could just about put out 2 teams that would hound Europe. I hope to be wrong obviously. Hopefully they can't even manage 1. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a sizable gap in quality from 7-20 though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignoramus Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I still think Donald will try and pull an angle to pick one or more of the LIV guys if he can. Pieters would be an obvious target given he was right in the reckoning before he jumped ship but I wouldn’t totally rule out Garcia with all of the RC history with him and Rahm basically saying he wanted to play alongside him. Not something I’d be doing, but I don’t think Europe are quite ready to drop those guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not something I’d be doing, but I don’t think Europe are quite ready to drop those guys. I think Garcia burnt his bridges. Rahm might want him there but Garcia apparently had more than 1 outburst behind the scenes that left a lot of European players thinking he was a w****r, never mind the DP World tour officials he's pissed off. The LIV guys were also part of last times embarrassment so I don't have a problem letting new guys in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not something I’d be doing, but I don’t think Europe are quite ready to drop those guys. I can understand the logic behind picking Garcia, but he's pissed off loads of folk. Neither him nor Pieters are knocking down the door in terms of form either and there's only 2 LIV events between now and the deadline (plus the Open for Pieters) Padraig Harrington is probably playing better golf than both Garcia and Pieters atm if you feel that the team needs experience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Played golf on holiday and hired clubs. They gave me what appeared to be a brand new set of Ping G425 woods and irons. I'm playing at home with a set of 10 or so year old Taylor Made Rocketblade irons, which, until now I've not really considered changing, but these Ping irons and woods where so much more forgiving than mine. Might end up being the most expensive round of gold I've played. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Birkdale announced as the venue for the 154th Open in 2026. Next few years 2023 Hoylake 2024 Troon 2025 Portrush 2026 Birkdale Would expect the 155th in 2027 to be back at St. Andrews. Muirfield must be due a turn, but the crowds the last time it was there in 2013 were well down on what was expected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll maybe need to get along to Troon next year if it's 2027 before it's back in Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re very enjoyable to play with, would highly recommend pulling the trigger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muirfield was dropped due to not having women members, eventually changing in 2017. Turnberry obviously won't be used while it has the Trump name attached. Lytham is currently the course with the longest wait outside of Turnberry, last hosting the Open in 2012. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
