The Gorgie Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Can't wait. Got Bryson down to win it but would love Rory to get the Grand Slam. The problem comes tomorrow when deciding if its worth changing over to the Hearts game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Three Jocks this year. Most in a while. Quite fancy MacIntyre to do well as he's a fearless type. Lyle's a waste of a tee peg and Laird's there to make up the numbers. Expecting another big showing from the English contingent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloustonHMFC Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Fiver on each to win: Dustin, Bryson, Jordan and Tony F. Wide open this year though, could go to anyone who finds a bit form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch pros who take great pride in what they do to try achieve their dreams, or watch some has beens kick a ball side ways and backwards against some part timers.

I thought it was 8,000 for the practice rounds (no par 3 contest this week ) and then more for the weekend. Given that DeChambeau is plotting a route through where the galleries usually are, it may be useful to have a few humans blocking his route.

I really think there should be some sort of age limit or score average for the last few years involved with past champions, guys like Lyle/Faldo/Woosnam/Olazabal aren’t playing at a good enough level to be a taking a younger guys place. Langer on the other hand is the exception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasquale for King Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 BBC coverage pretty poor, highlights of today’s play on at 12:30am and about the same time for all four days.

After all the years watching the Masters on TV with my parents growing up, I decided to bring them over to see it in person last year and bought hospitality tickets for the Saturday. The hospitality company have just carried forward the tickets from April to November to April to April 2022 now so hoping my parents are still able to make it next year otherwise I'll have a couple of spare tickets 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langer on the other hand is the exception. I agree. They should get an automatic multi year exemption (say 10 years), but beyond that any further exemption should be caveated that they continue to play regularly on a major tour, including seniors, and such an exemption would end should the player not make the cut in five successive appearances.

OBE Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Bryson is gonna damage his spine (if not already done so) and someone in the gallery. Rory's heids all over the place, new coach. Westwood may contend but he'll run out of gas (legs have gone), needs to get an ugly caddie... J.Rahm, C. Smith and M. Leishman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there’s similar type exemptions in the other majors too, I remember watching Faldo hacking about St Andrews thinking it’s just embarrassing. Rich Beem always plays the PGA but does t play in much else. Tom Watson nearly won though so it’s a difficult decision. Agree about the seniors, they should maybe play a set number of tournaments, some of them use The Open as a warm up for the Seniors Open which isn’t right.

Well it is for some I suppose but what a prick. He won't win. My picks are Xander Shauffele, Matt Fitzpatrick and John Rahm. He really does just open his mouth sometimes without thinking, to be honest I think he’s a bit thick. Slating the Ryder cup then retracting it, sleeping in at Medinah. Playing with Trump then saying he won’t do it again. He moaned about the weather at Troon a few years ago, he grew up a few miles just across the water not Florida ffs 🙈.

He seems that type, amazing he’s still playing at this level at his age. Still annoys me that Mark James picked Andrew Coltart instead of him for the Ryder Cup in 1999, then didn’t play him until the singles where he got hammered off Tiger. Great Ryder cup captain too.
