Now on the tee, from USA: The 2024 Open Championship thread

It was. Lowry can play smarter than that, though. In fact, he should be the one who does, given what he knows about the weather. Or maybe he got mad about the turn in the weather and lost focus.

Scheffler may have played the best round to the green. I think he'll do that again Sunday. Comes down to putting at that point.

 

Anything has to be better than "get in the hole," although I imagine there were a few this week.

 

I yelled that at the TV on a couple of Horschel’s shots today.

 

Enjoy Whistling Straits. Hope you get a great day for it. Got to play the media day before the 2004 PGA Championship. That joint is something else. Really loved it.

Oh, that Pete Dye. I took an 11 on one par 5 and was in sand eight times. And had to one-putt for that 11.

I want to get back there it and play it again, along with the other course.

 

Lowry is a roller coaster ride this week.

 

You could see Horschel was going to miss that par putt before he hit it. He looked VERY nervous and tentative in setting up for it.

 

Who the hell is Thriston Lawrence?

 

I had to look up Lawrence. From South Africa. Rookie of the year in 2022 on the euro tour. He’s 27.

I generally find golfers from South Africa to be giant assholes. I’m rooting for Rose or Xander at this point. And Lowry but he’s fading.
