    Actually on replay.. it didn't look as bad. Carry on.. nothing to see here :D

    Or maybe not..... someone please tell me I'm seeing things. Watch where he plays the drop from. Extend a line from the flag to that point and note where it dissects the line of the hazard..... totally didn't look like his last point of entry. Remember, the ball landed in the water just in front of the microphone.... and when Matt plays from his dropped spot, the microphone is just visible after he hits the ball.

    Now for the point of entry Matt has taken... that would mean his original shot would have had to come in at a near right angle for it to splash near that microphone!!

    It doesn't matter in terms of the winner now but what about second place.........

    Looks all wrong. Would've been a big hook to drop there, which it didn't look to be.

    All depends on how he explains the drop in his post round interview;-)

    @Snowdrifts Any chance that he did take your blue dot as the point of entry?
    There isn't much rough there, I think 2 drivers gets him there.

    Wasn't watching it all, so not sure if they showed him actually dropping it

    No, if you watch the youtube clip posted above, you will see that 2 club lengths wouldn't be near enough to get him to where he dropped. As you can see from the position of the red stakes, the hazard margin is quite a way down the bank.

    The commentators also said he dropped back keeping the point of entry and the flag in line...... they just failed to mention it looked like an incorrect location! :D

    He can, I used to be a fan of his until 2 or so years ago he hit a shot into spectators and no shout of fore. Clocked an old guy on the head with the ball splitting him open. Very bad form in my eyes.

    Watched the recorded program after my night shift. Great viewing. Well done Matt Jones for hanging in and jumping thru the open door.

    Glad to see Garcia did throw it away, he just had too many long par putts which kept him in the hunt.

    Not conceding that 1 footer to Westwood in the Ryder Cup didn't endear him to a lot of people either.

    With how shaky westwood looked over the putt, who could blame him ?

    Ah here, we've been through the laws of ball spin not so long ago ;)

    It would have required a 90* turn at the "point of entry" he used... not even Foreright can put that much spin on a ball :pac:

    I don't think so. If you look at the replay of the shot from the air (about 40 seconds in) it doesn't appear to be a massive hook. Also the commentators said it was " fat and pulled". It is hard to trust camera angles on the tv however.

    Kuch finally crosses the line but for a while I sensed a playoff at least after the 3 putt. Great way to close out a victory.

    With the kids in the locker room, he says " lets go and pick up the trophy" as much as the rest of us would say "lets go to the shop for an ice-cream". Brilliant.

    Watch Patrick Reed nearly hitting a boat a few days ago at RBC Heritage. Oh now this is funny for people who are aware of Reed's recent comments. Check out the name of the boat!! :D:D

    Yeah sorry - I have youtube set to play in HD on the bigger player so it's fairly clear. I'm sure he regretted the "top five" comment at that precise moment anyway! :D

    He was saying on twitter a few months ago that this year is the last year he is going to seek sponsors' invitations to play in tournaments. I guess that means he has to play well in any events he does compete in or he won't be playing next year?


    Elsewhere.. it seems Rickie's switch to Butch is paying dividends...
    Relax... he meant to do it :D

    Absolutely. He was playing in the group directly behind us one time when I was on a golf holiday in Florida a few years ago and was more than happy to chat away after the round and get in photos etc. Sound guy.

    I remember a few years back Ewen Murray saying that Noh was the most gifted young player he'd seen since Woods.

    I followed him at the Irish open in Killarney and his ball striking was brilliant. It'll be interesting to see if he kicks on from here.

    There's a few Asian golfers I am looking forward to seeing what they do in future Like SM Bae, Noh and I think Matsuyama has potential
