Wee-Bey Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 It was an outstanding round tbf and he's gone from someone who looked like he was going to be a nearly man to arguably the most likely to complete the grand slam out of anyone currently playing given his Masters and US Open records. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 I get Schauffele isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I'm struggling to see how a bogey free 65 to win is dull tbh. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Anyone who keeps Patrick Cantlay as a close friend must be viewed with some suspicion, but that's an incredible round from Xander. I'm a bit gutted as I would've loved Rose to win it and he put in a round worthy of winning it, but still not enough, which says everything about Schauffeles round. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the person not the golf tbh. I like Scheffler which will definitely not be popular but purely because he's unorthodox. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't. Anyone moaning about how dull Schauffele, Scheffler are either doesn't really appreciate golf or is an attention seeker. 5 minutes ago, Groundhopping Adventures said: Scheffler or Schauffle shooting a 57 would still be dull to me.

lichtie23 Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 His golf is electric at times (as it was today) but what makes xander dull to me is his overall demeanour. He’s so robotic. What I love about Spieth is his eccentricities such as talking furiously to the ball and his amusing interactions with Greller 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Was a good Open, and was shaping up to be a great final round - right up to the point where Xander reached -8. That was the end of any chance of a nail biting finish. I don’t think Xander is a dullard college-raised robot Yank. Seems a decent bloke. The Yanks might indeed have some dullards, God botherers, or outright fannies like Patrick Reed, but hey, we’ve got big happy chops Hatton. Some round of golf, but I wanted a nail biting finish. Booo! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Less exciting than had looked likely, but fair play to him - a tremendous round. There were a couple of holes in the back 9 when Schauffele sank good putts while Rose missed similar ones. It was enough to make the difference. It was a good Open, even if it felt slightly flat at the very end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Xander signed absolutely everything after his practice round on Monday unlike his playing partners therefore he’s a good guy. Wonder if this will be worth anything one day… 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
