    He finished on -16 (I think). I watched a fair bit of the golf on Sat and Sun and I don't think Sky showed him once, they seem to prefer showing Harrington taking half a lifetime to take a routine drop from a water hazard!

    He's 62nd in the race to Dubai,time running out.

    8 counting events left before Dubai, eligible for 7 of those so will probably play 4/5 more i'd guess.

    Technically he is 60th. Tom Lewis and Ryan Moore I think it is can't play because they are associate members.

    when you get to know the original poster you will understand!!;):D


  • Subscribers Posts: 4,419 ✭✭✭PhilipMarlowe


    You could argue that it's harsh even though it's not the done thing to argue on-thread...

    Firstly, conno has a history and a rap sheet as long as a bay hill 7 iron. He's just back from being site-banned recently and he's had his time off from this forum specifically too from time to time.

    Secondly, it's not really cricket to say that "Pro x" is a {insert insult here} but because this is an Irish site, we're needfully more protective of the Irish players because they potentially have family/friends/siblings/children etc. reading here.

    Our pet troll sometimes serves a purpose with a certain humour value but the grasshopper still has much to learn...

    I like golf Jerry so I'll stick with the Golf forum for now thanks if... that's ok with you

    Whats after hours like?Although you're probably not the best person to ask I would imagine

    Back on topic:

    I think Shane would be really annoyed if he didn't make the race this year as I think he only missed out by 1 place last year! A good top 10 will get him there though!

    Sorry Plumber - Just to clarify..there are certainly a good chunk of helpful,decent and fun people that post regularly on the Golf Forum(40%)

    Then there are the others.

    So in summary, it was not an all inclusive insult so sorry if I upset you in anyway


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 679 ✭✭✭plumber77


    Not at all Hugo.Just having a bit of a laugh.Anyway back on topic is right..

    Indeed, he seems to be getting his game back on track after a post Wentworth slump, 3 cuts in a row, with 2 decent cheques. The next 2 in Spain are crucial, a top 10 in either and he's pretty much there.

    couple of bad holes after killing his round there today. Hope he finishes strong and has a good day tomorrow.

    +9 thru 12 today ... think the weekend will be spent in Mothercare


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


    Excellent start to his final round in the Andalucia Masters. -3 after 6 leaves him on -2 and 4 off the lead of Garcia who is going for back to back wins.

    A top 6 finish will get him 100k+ which will move him comfortabally inside the top 60 for the race to Dubai.

    2 behind with 2 to play. Chance to post a decent number even if it might be one to many.
