    bugger, going to be a good experience for him all the same though.

    Does the golf seem very slow to you. Only checking every hour or so but it seems like they are barely moving. I know Shane likes to play fast so might be finding it hard to get a rhythm going.

    Won't make it now, double bogey on 12th.

    Upgraded to a triple bogey!!!!!!!

    3 putts from 5 feet to go with the 3 putts from 7 feet earlier, poor day for him. This will be his 4th consecutive strokeplay missed cut.

    Head must be melted at this stage. All part of the learning curve hopefully

    And only missed the cut by 2 after all that! The pair of 7's was the killer :(

    He just can't afford to be 3 putting from 7feet ever!!!

    And then to do it from 5feet a few holes later is just outrageous.

    They ended up getting round in 4hrs 40mins. Probably a fast round by PGA standards.

    Pity he missed the cut, but his game must be coming good if he finished that close with 2 disaster holes.

    Yeah doing well on the sponsor invites, he'll be back in Europe to play the Spanish open then back over to U.S again for the Zurich Classic.

    Great start hope he can go on now and make the cut and collect a nice cheque


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,773 ✭✭✭Speak Now

    He seems to have allot of 3 putts which really is just sloppy at this level as tee to green he seems to be flying..

    seems to have a tendency to miss a few short ones alright. Hopefully a par up the last to be top 30 heading into weekend.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 19,893 Mod ✭✭✭✭slave1


    He's safely in the clubhouse and 3 inside the current cut so should be around for the weekend :pac:

    Bring on the Masters.

    Good recovery by Shane to get back to level par after dropping 3 shots early on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,871 ✭✭✭abff


    Looks like I jinxed him. Bogey at ten.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,591 ✭✭✭✭Aidric


    That triple killed his card.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,430 ✭✭✭Ilik Urgee


    On a day of not much happening evens is well acceptable. Missed the whole lot, was it windy?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,775 ✭✭✭redzerdrog


    he is doing a quick Q&A on twitter at the minute, just answered my question aswell!!

    Had a double, no triple (This week....yet!!!)

    Top 20 finish would be nice.
