New thread as old one is nearly at 10000 post limit.
Old thread
I think Boardsmaster broadly agrees with my point , his intention was not to rinse anyone , so you are being a bit unfair to him , He was merely correcting an error I made , which though a bit pedantic , I accept . He gets the jist of what I’m saying .
Could?
Its not a question anymore.
What will be interesting to see if he has enough resolve to come back.
If he is standing on the 12th tee on Sunday within a shot or 2 of the lead he will have answered all of the above.
I can’t see him getting over the final hurdle though and winning.
Waiting in the wings already 😂
Mcilroy plays fantastically well for two days, puts himself in a great position to win, and that’s what the two of you came on here to post? About me?
Have you any concept of how creepy that is?
He could play great for four day but if he doesn't win you'll be in to stick the knife in and tell us you told us so!
How creepy is that!
If he plays great for four days, there would be no need for criticism at all. But if he implodes, firstly, it’ll be true, secondly, if it did happen, every golf commentator and journo would call it exactly the same, another opportunity missed, and another major less year, it wouldn’t be me “telling you so”, it would be history repeating itself.
But why are you focusing on me instead of commenting on the good play of the player in the thread title? Does my opinion bother you that much that you ignore the player?
As I said, you boys are a couple of.
Well I could ask you the same question? You're nowhere to be seen when he's playing good but arrive like a fly to **** once you have your opportunity for criticism.
I’ve literally mentioned his good play a number of times yesterday and this morning. You on the other hand are just ******** it up, calling out a poster in advance of what might happen.
Ah here , have we descended to name calling now . Anyway , I hope mcilroy plays well today and tommorrow and wins the claret jug , and I know in his heart of hearts Davo does too 😄
Jesus nobody genuinly believes hes going to win? I hope he does but christ he was a young fella last time he did.
Just seems a matter of time before he wins another major. He's been there or there abouts the last few, seems to have a new found motivation or something.
Thought it was strange the commentators on Sky yesterday were saying Rory can be the new Tiger, of this generation.
When Tiger was Rory's age, he had won 14 majors.
Playing exceptionally well again today.
Holy crap that was incredible
Posts discussing Rory's Nationality deleted, this is a banned topic for good reason, read the charter please
Separated at Birth?
(age notwithstanding)
Hopefully goes on and win, weight of expectation must be huge Hopefully he can bring his best stuff.
COME ON RORY!
I wouldn’t back him but good luck to him he’s playing great stuff for awhile now so couldn’t begrudge him
A chance to make history. I hope he plays his best and wins.
The fact that the drive on the first hole must be as easy as any course on the planet is great for Rory, there's nothing in the immediate to stress about. I'm hopeful, would love to see him do it in St Andrews.
Superb effort.
A very very good 3rd!
Great 3 days but 70 on the final day no where good enough given how course was playing . Everyone in top 15 went well below that for final round
Savage weeks golf again from McIlroy, the way he's playing is unbelievable stuff
3 top 5's in this year's majors, some consistency
Basically took an amazing round from Smith to win it, Rory did very little wrong. Pleasure to see him playing
Well tbf young had a great round and came 2nd. Thought 70 was a bad score today.
To put it another way, he was 3 shots off the win
Delighted for Cam - but very depressed for Rory - you basically only get one or two chances to win at St Andrews.
Solid year in the majors but still missing something...I think a change if caddy would be good for him..
Yes this one in particular will sting, he was playing so well aswell maybe the scars of missed majors haunted him, I think he played a bit too conservative, unreal putting from Cam though and Rory does seem back to his best this year so not all bad.
I reckon he wins the fed ex
