Florentine_Pogen Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 https://www.theguardian.com/sport/article/2024/jul/17/bob-macintyre-the-open-golf-royal-troon "Bob MacIntyre bowled up a day late for the Open. He was supposed to be here early on Monday for a press conference, but had to change his plans at the last minute after his victory in the Scottish Open at the Renaissance Club in North Berwick. “I don’t think I’ll be able to get to Troon,” he said that night. “I don’t think I’ll be legally able to drive.” He isn’t a big drinker, but decided to make an exception on Sunday. He was last seen in the clubhouse bar some time in the early hours with one arm around his father, Dougie, and the other on a silver punchbowl filled to the brim with good scotch." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a brilliant season in America He's out with an amateur and John Daly, who appears to be honing his appearance for an audition as Abraham in a remake of 'The Ten Commandments'. Wonder if he'll break 80 ? Boab off at 9.36 with Tommeh and Jon Rahm and this is a featured group on R&A TV. https://www.randa.tv/schedule Edited July 17 by Florentine_Pogen 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking back to Tiger at Hoylake in 2006, when he eshewed the driver off the tee and used 2 iron in a course management masterclass. Not sure if DeRoidboy has this breadth of nuance in his game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Open record is fairly dismal. One T8th at St. Andrews where you can pretty much smack it anywhere and still have a shot. 2 x T33rd, a T60th, and 2 missed cuts make up the rest of his efforts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 (edited) The R&A get lots of things wrong, but credit to them for inviting Michael Hendry to this year's tourney after missing out last year. Edited July 17 by peasy23 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Course looks great with the green fairway, darker green light rough, and light brown knee high rough. If the sun comes out (ha!), the TV pictures will look great. Just tuned in fifteen minutes ago - is McGinley there? Is his tongue wedged up Rory’s arse yet? Has Dame Laura delivered anything remotely of interest? Has mad Faldo been on waffling his admittedly entertaining bullshit yet? Has Peter Alliss told us to get down to Little Puddleduck Golf Club in Somerset next week to support Betty and Arthur who are hosting their annual Little Puddleduck fundraising bring & buy sale? Oh, there’s Rory teed off. There’s the boogah woogah cuntos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
