Lowery had one of those day...
Sam had a synaptic underlapse...
Rose played how I thought he would play and was there at the end...

That Lawrence dude is smashing driver everywhere. He is playing well.



I was rooting for this baw. Everyone else was hitting irons off tees and he came out sending driver up and down the course. Think the moment got to him but he gained a fan here.

Great experience for burns and I expect him to take a lot of positives going forward.

Certainly feels like Xander has a big weight off his shoulders and the gates are open.

I agree with the earlier poster in that the format of LIV makes it really difficult for some of these guys to just flip the switch when they get into majors.

LIV works for guys like Bryson and Brooks, but I think the overwhelming majority need to stay in the arena the PGA tour provides to maintain the edge.

make no bone about it, with the kind of money LIV paid these guys they work for the Saudis...

quote:

Players must "play in every LIV event as a fundamental condition of their contract, and LIV retains 'sole discretion' in the number, location, or dates of events." Players grant LIV an "*exclusive*, perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide, irrevocable license to exhibit, exploit […] and otherwise use players' identification ...


this was supposed to be a thread for The Open...

Brooks is done. You will never see him again on a major leaderboard.

Yes it is and while you are over there, play Trump Turnberry. That course is the BEST course I have ever played. The R&A, PGA, etc needs to stop being bitches and put it back in rotation for the open, but they won't because it has "Trump" in the name.
