Caledonian1 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Can't blame Rory for resigning from the PGA board - he attended all their meeings and then finds out that the real deals (with LIV) were being done bhind his back and that he was completely frozen out. The PGA almost make the Saudis look like the good guys...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 33 players (25 and ties) secured their card at DWPT Q school, unfortunately none of them Scots. Daniel Young was 2 shots away from getting one, Marc Warren 11 shots away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian1 Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Very good start from Bob today - three under after seven. Currently tied in second place and up to projected 5th in Race to Dubai. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sooner have you posted this then he hits a shocker of a wedge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off to a stinking start today, 2 over thru 3. It's all Caledonian1's fault if he doesn't secure his card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 (edited) McGinley doing his usual and giving Rory a 10-15% chance of winning, even though he is 6 shots behind already with the leaders still having lots of holes to play. Edit: and he has just said that Rahm who is a shot closer to the leaders is just drifting along and needs to get a wiggle on. How the f**k is he allowed to talk such shite?

peasy23 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Matt Wallace 11 under for the day thru 17 having birdied every hole on the back 9 so far. Needs a 3 on the last for a 59 and his drive is in the middle of the fairway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 He's going to have to hole it from the greenside bunker though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 And it's a great effort, but he's got inside 2 feet for a birdie and a 60 and a back 9 of 27. Can only dream of a card like this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No rest for these guys with the 2024 DP World Tour schedule kicking off next week with events in Australia and South Africa. Good number of Scots in the field for Australian PGA next week and presumably the Australian Open the following week (MacIntyre, Hill, Syme, Forrest, and Howie).

peasy23 Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Bob level par thru 9 holes, with just one par on his card. Could do with picking up a few shots on the back 9, he should be OK for securing his PGA card but he is projected to drop a couple of places at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Bob safely home in 71 and will get his dial tour membership. He hit 7 pars, 6 birdies and 5 bogeys. Next target has to be to get insude the top 50 by the end of the year which gets him a Masters invite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funky_nomad Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Played my first full 18 holes since early August yesterday following an enforced absence - delighted with the way I was hitting the ball (although I've lost a wee bit of distance, probably a full club's worth), and the putter was red-hot. Usual caveats of front tees and off mats, but a gross 72 (+3) was way beyond my expectations. BTW, for keen winter golfers (and you had to be yesterday!), the greens at Tulliallan are in fantastic condition - parts of the course are understandably squelchy, but the greens were running superbly well, and pretty quick for mid-November. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good scoring there. I've been laid off most of the year with back issues and played my first 18 since June a couple of weeks ago (managed +9 which is more than acceptable by my standards). Like you, I hit it well; bit shorter (put it down to cold temperatures!) and putted really well. Always found it funny that golf often seems simple(r) in the first game back after a long break. Maybe something to do with swinging freely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even worse because Rasmus looks like he's bottled the last dual card as well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
