It's light years ahead of what BBC used to offer. If there is no content on which you are looking for, I recommend putting on Talksport 2 as you'll get the Open Radio broadcast. Rob Lee and Inci Mehmet provide the coverage (before they do the Sky wrap-up show). Some good interviews and insights - although you'll still not see a shot being struck. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Looking like a 2 horse race now. With a maximum effort MacIntyre could be looking at 4th or 5th. Hopefully he'll grind away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind that some of the guys high up on one list are also occupying high spots on the other so he's not too far away from applying pressure to the auto picks. Rose, Garcia, Poulter and Willett are all in and around him. With Hovland (and possibly Perez) being the only rookie, a form player may get the nod ahead of experience.

It's his to lose now. By the way McGinlay was a great Ryder Cup captain but his commentary is mince. Just said "beautiful play there........oh no" as the ball went into the rough. Murray is ok but a bit snooty. "Gillan is a wonderful course". It's Gullane ya bools in the mooth welt. That's the one thing I don't like about Murray. Seems ashamed of his natural accent and puts on this phoney posh English one. Listen to him pronounce birdie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
