The Open Championship at St Andrews


Recommended Posts

July 16-19

 

Rory was the favorite but now he is in a walking boot.  No word yet if he will miss the tournament. Jordan Speith's odds to win the first 3 majors of the season just shot to tremendously. 

I think Jordan has a good chance regardless. Texans, especially ones from DFW and west, should naturally do well at Links courses. For Jordan himself he just has to go to Weatherford an hour away to play a links style course. Jordan should have already been the favorite but three weeks layoff hopefully won't bring any rust with it.

​Jordan is playing the John Deere this coming week.

He finished at -5.  Young man has ice  water in his veins, and in the Majors, he bows up like a mad rattlesnake.  And to me, one of his best attributes, he's got Class.

Sorry - senile:  Currently two off the lead, behind D. Johnson.

John Daly is -4 through 10.  He's still one of the fan favorites.

So much wasted talent!   If I'm not mistaken he's won at St A once before. Wonder if still flattens the ball like he use too.  $15 cab fare from tee to get to his ball.

What a moment at twilight at the Old Course.  Tom Watson had a career filled with class and grace.  His final moments were no different.  

Also loved that Matt Kuchar came back to witness his last walk up 18 and to thank him, hours after his own round was completed.  

A classy move for Kuchar, for IMO Mr. Class TWatson.

Amateur Paul Dunne in the clubhouse tied for the lead after 3 rounds. This is only his 2nd tournament ever to play. He would miss out on a $1.8 million dollar payday if he wins.  The golfers below him that get to split that money would be happy though

    • Just to expound a little further, so you are not confused...I, along with so many others, are laughing at your desperation. You are working overtime, nay, double even triple time, trying to convince normal people Trump was bad for the country. His policies provided for peace all over the world, low gas prices, low food prices, energy independence, closed border, low inflation, record low unemployment, and on and on and on. You try to counter this narrative by saying unemployment skyrocketed on his watch. You said this knowing full well the unemployment rate went up due to Covid. Your narrative is just so laughable, to the point of side-splitting hilarity. Who would even attempt this asinine narrative? Now, even if you get past the utter stupidity of that MSNBC talking point, you provide another side-splitting hilarious tidbit of evidence to back your claim of Trump being bad for the country. You actually tried to tie the stock market going down to Trump...after Covid. You, I, and everybody else knows the stock market was flourishing under Trump...until Covid hit. This argument is just as bad as the other one. Again, who would even attempt this narrative? The only thing you could remotely muster that had any sliver of truthfulness, is that spending increased. Sure, Trump rebuilt the military and gave them a deserved raise. But he also had to shut down the government due to Democrats demanding an even more, and very detrimental, increase in spending. And in a true extremely exaggerated fashion, you proclaim that spending "skyrocketed". Again, who would even attempt this narrative? I think I can smell the desperation. Do you have any other whoppers to contribute?
    • He was injured but has returned and he decided not to play baseball this year.
    • There's some truth to that.......some.
    • The AD's job is to win in football. Everything else is window dressing. If the football team is winning the rest can go up in smoke.
