ICTJohnboy Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Sky Bet just reduced Ernie Els from 750/1 to 200/1 Still not a bad bet at that price. This is not a course for big hitters in its present form. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not a course for big hitters in its present form.After his first three holes this morning I got him on 365 at 1000/1 ewLoved him back in the day and it’s certainly playing well enough for even the oldies to hang about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 The concern for me is it’s looking like this will be the windiest day which could mean these guys taking the pissSaw one forecast that said Saturday was to be the strongest wind, with it coming from a different direction than it has all week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we get that, because it all feels quite samey at the moment with guys either blasting drivers on to the green or just short of it and pitching on, a tougher day fighting the wind would be just what the doctor ordered 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The road hole bunker is just a bunker. There's nothing special about it. Not particularly difficult, many harder greenside bunkers in that course (left of 11 the hardest) and on every decent links course. It's just completely unremarkable. Slightly small to a small target and you land on a downslope. Probably a thousand more difficult greenside bunkers in Scotland. Of course I would as the course doesn't merit it. St Andrews will be busy for the next 200 years if it never hosts another Open. No damage at all to the economy. And btw they actually lose money to host these things anyway. The course has been closed the last three and a half weeks. How much money you think they're making then? Lose money. Absolute shite they are fucking raking in millions as is the local economy. I don't know much about golf courses and golf course design but I do know that this event makes an absolute fucking shitload of money for all involved. Yes mate. But the course has been closed for three and a half weeks before it. So they lose a shit ton of money. You make a loss to hold the open. You make it back in future by attracting more tourists, but St Andrews gets them anyway. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfCutNinja Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 What ia surprise they're tearing it up cause it's an absolute pitch and put. Did not expect. Carnoustie 2018 8 under won by two in the easiest conditions ever. St Andrews it's 8 under on day one. That course has no business holding a major. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
