Well over to you Thomas says Mr. Wallace. Another victory this year and probably hard to ignore as a pick.

Just hope Bjorn doesn’t pick him

Not a hope. He was picked by his mate two years ago when he shouldn't have been and it resulted in a big zero so it won't happen again.

Deeper Blue · 02-09-2018 04:37PM

Including the two playoff holes he birdied 10 of his last 13 holes today. Some shooting

Paul Kimmage article on the European Tour's GolfSixes and John McHenry. Worth a read.

Yeah but not joined at the hip like with Darren.

As mentioned above, a very good read alright. Leaves a pretty sour taste in the mouth

HighLine · 03-09-2018 12:58PM

Great article alright, thanks for sharing. The attempted 30k payment will hopefully facilitate McHenry in further litigation.

GreeBo · 03-09-2018 01:02PM

Interesting read alright, but towards the end I kinda changed my opinion on the whole thing, Im not sure how similar Golf Sixes actually is to Golf Warriors, other than both being over 6 holes?

Paul Dunne hasn't played recently. Is he injured?

He was playing in Woodenbridge the other day according to their social media.

Nice eagle!

GreeBo · 09-09-2018 03:07PM

Brain fart from the leader here, in danger of dropping two shots while holding a 2 shot lead...

...and it is two dropped...ridiculous going for it in two from under the trees

Crazy shot. What was he thinking. Was joint leader at 17 under at the time though

Fair clutch from Fitzpatrick. Left his form a couple of weeks late for the Ryder cup.

Niles Crane · 09-09-2018 04:29PM

Seeing as the commentators mentioned the possibility of Bjeregaard being at a disadvantage because he'd went nearly 3/4 of an hour without hitting a ball (and I'd imagine there is some sense in this line of thinking) shouldn't he have been out on the range or the putting green rather than looking at the last few groups play, seems like a very wasteful way to spend time when he must have known there was a good chance he would end up in a playoff.

The range was a considerable distance away so he wouldnt really have been able to do anything other than putt, which he did.

Paul Dunne with the car crash start of Double Double Bogey. Will miss another cut. Probably rusty from the long layoff

Synode · 14-09-2018 03:55PM

Is it not being shown on Sky Sports? The Evian Championship on SS Golf.

The only live coverage on Sun from 3pm to 4.30pm

He hasn’t been playing well for a while. Missed the cut last week too. Not sure what’s wrong with his game or maybe just a confidence issue.

I wonder if he has been addressing his speed of play as that was a big highlight when he came close to winning in Spain earlier? I haven’t seen him for a while but maybe he has been working on that to the detriment of his game.

He had a disastrous start to his round but fought back well and only missed the cut by a shot. It happens us all.

I’m not suggesting it’s anything other than bad form. It would certainly need to go on for a while longer before we should worry.

That said, I think Paul has been fairly predictable (which is a compliment) on tour. In the last two weeks I don’t think he ever looked like making the cut and he only started to play well when he had taken himself out of the tournament.

Those runs of bogeys and double bogeys are very out of character for him.

Padraig back in contention after a wonderful third round of 65. That new take-away movement in his backswing is working wonders.
