    What time are the final group likely to tee it up on Sunday? Will it mirror tomorrow (so between 10.30 and 11)? Just trying to figure out my Sunday watching schedule.

    Final group tees off at 15:50 tomorrow I would expect Sunday to be the same maybe an hour earlier.

    Harsh on Lowry . I know he threw away the US open few years back but can’t think of any other time.

    The player that hits the shot is going to be the first to know where it’s going. By the time any marshall knows it’s heading for the crowd it’s too late to issue a timely warning.

    Rose a bottler?

    You haven’t a clue about golf so. Probably the player you would pick most on any last hole to close a major out

    He blew it on the PGA tour a couple of months back. You seen how he finished today's round.

    Rose has a major but blew his chance many times before and since that win.
    You haven't a clue.

    Fleetwood will blow it tomorrow.

    If you say so. He’ll be under par tomorrow. I’m sure of it

    Seriously?

    Are you being serious?

    Justin rose is as solid as it gets.
    Any serious player would tell you that

    I'm talking about majors here. Tell me about his final rounds when in contention for a major.

    Well his third round scoring has him tied 160th on the PGA tour. And those bad rounds have come in big tournaments.

    With experience comes experience.

    He’ll be under par tomorrow in my opinion. He’s the real deal

    I believe the leaders will go out at 2.30 on Sunday ,thats what it says on the tickets and thats the usual time.

    Well you say he's the real deal but he hasn't proved it to this point and stats suggest he won't.

    Statistics statistics and all that...........

    I’m giving my opinion from what I see and what he is capable of and I feel his time has come to mount a serious challenge


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 42,047 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye

    He hasn't proven himself to this point as a winner. That's not statistics, that's a fact.
    Statistics suggest it's not going to change anytime soon.

    Statistics never prove anything is going to change soon. Statistics are based on past events.

    Lay off the sherry :)

    the RBC Heritage in April this year - would have to count as a bottling. it was there for the taking and he didn't take it.

    Had a great day up there today. Saw practically everyone of note at some stage. Weather was ok and in the afternoon when it rained it wasn't too bad and didn't last too long either. One day is enough, but really a great experience.

    Seeing Tiger was great even in his golfing autumn. He's the man. Not a bad swing/game either for a physical wreck really. Call me weird but I'm really starting to like GMac.

    If you haven't been yet and you're going at the weekend just a couple of practical tips.

    Bring something to eat. Food is brazenly expensive and really cr@p too. 3 chicken goujons and a half portion of chips are £11. And you can't escape to some other food stall either. Its all the same TheOpen branded food places.
    Bring a water bottle. They don't sell water but sell you empty drinking cans for £4.50 to use at their free water filling stations.
    Take note what number car park you're in. lol (figured it out but looked silly for a moment)

    I wouldn't call his 3 wood into 18 in Abu Dhabi bottling it.

    And just because someone doesn't win doesn't mean they have bottled it FFS.
