Lowry is swearing at a volunteer who is just doing his job. Twattish behaviour. Agree the response wasn't comparable. I was just meaning that it made me think of the Seve response. I would imagine though that in a non Ryder Cup environment Lowry would have been a bit less abrupt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Think if we are into "doing their job" then we need to mention that Shane Lowry was doing exactly that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 It's worth noting that at that time Lowry looked like he was having to dig out a half point and said afterwards it was the most stressful 2 hours he's had on a golf course. Given the steward quickly apologises and keeps his trap shut it suggests to me he knows he messed up. Whole lot of moaning about nothing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the most precious items in the whole of sportswriting – right up there with your thesaurus, your dog-eared envelope full of expense receipts, and Wikipedia. You’re about to enter a magical portal into a sunlit universe of big swings and perfumed shoulders, cigar smoke and mild swearing. There are times in this job when you feel the need to explain to people that actually, it’s not as opulent and idyllic as it all seems. That there are deadlines and demands, brutally early starts and late nights, interminable hours spent in windowless rooms waiting for a man in a tracksuit to shower you in banalities, long train journeys with Jonathan Wilson. Then, of course, there are the moments that just need to be savoured and shared. Lean into the smugness. Come with me. We’re going behind the ropes at the Ryder Cup." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did it myself, appreciate matchplay scoring always lower but bloody hell Rory. Bob's match the hardest to score at Clark conceded the 16th after sticking two in the water so he would likely have been over par. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTFY Apparently this hat and the one for Whistling Straits didn't fit him, the weasely lying c*nt. The man encapsulates everything the stereotypical professional sportsman claims to the outside world not to be. Imagine working beside him every day in civvy street?!

Bob's match the hardest to score at Clark conceded the 16th after sticking two in the water so he would likely have been over par. Burn’s definitely drawing the short straw in coming up against Rory. 5 under not shabby but he did well to take him to the 17th. Fitzpatrick’s level par effort was another disappointment to add to a Ryder cup record which is difficult to explain for a player with such a stellar amateur and professional career under his belt already - played 8, won 1 and lost 7. In his favour 2 of his 3 appearances have been in losing away fixtures at Hazeltine and Whistling Straits and he was handed the much harder team option of foursomes in both those outings. He also had the considerable additional handicap in his two Whistling Straits foursome attempts of being paired with the lead weight that was Lee Westwood who was a shocking wildcard pick by Harrington and undoubtedly the worst since the annoying blowhard McGinley picked Stephen Gallacher over Luke Donald amongst others for Gleneagles which he should always be reminded of when he starts pontificating about captaincy. If Donald does stick around for 2025 having a plan for turning Fitzpatrick, who is one of the names from the current team you’d bank on for being an automatic qualifier at Bethpage, into an asset rather than a almost guaranteed two or three point head start for the yanks must be high on his agenda. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halbeath Raith Rover Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 The free entry on days one to three is something they should publicise more as it's a great thing. Especially with the option of the three courses to go to. Still miss the old format of the Dunhill with the three men national teams. Woods, O'Meara and Daly representing the USA in 98 or 99 was superb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 After being spoiled with a weekend of being able to watch the earliest of tee times we’re back to the old lunch time coverage this week. I really wish they’d even start some sort of subscription service with minimal ads and all the early action. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
