Ehh......I kinda know that but the mejia including the Irish media hardly ever refer to it as the ‘British open’....? A bit like they insist on addressing Cnuts like ‘Alex ferguson’ as ‘sir alex’...

FixdePitchmark · 21-07-2019 05:08PM

that was an outstanding performance

Newstalk seem to make a point of calling it The British Open.

Fred Daly was the first Irish winner of the Open as far back as 1947.

That caddy deserves every penny of his earnings.

Tipsy McSwagger · 21-07-2019 05:12PM

Does this mean Brexit is off?

I don’t know if he pays for a pint in Offaly now but I’d say for a while he might never pay after this.

NeonWolf · 21-07-2019 05:12PM

He is loved in a way Rory can only dream of.

tayto lover · 21-07-2019 05:12PM

I’m overcome with emulsion.
