Wolff hoicks a hook into nightmare land on par 3 3rd.
Xander & Lois looking solid
Rory in reverse
I just cannot warm to deChambeau…
Me neither.
But.
He said what he planned to do, everyone laughed and is looking like he could do it.
Ram an awful lot of words down a lot of people’s throats.
IF he hangs on, I will respect him for that.
Equally, he & Wolff are going to change the game again.
Wolff has lost his swing.
The only thing going wrong for Bryson right now is a big blob of Lip Balm above his chin making him look like a twat
(While being one)
4 shot lead, 4 to go
Bryson only player under par -6
Golf has just changed forever.
Goah
Well played Bryson.
Thank fvck it wasn’t Patprick Reed
Force all tour pros to play with an original design Balata Ball in competition

It needs something. My clubs are 20 odd years old. I hit a pitching wedge 120yds on a good day.
They ate hitting them 180+ My 4 Iron doesn’t go that far
His coach said what I was sort of thinking earlier, except I was thinking of making the rough deeper everywhere
Schy told BBC World Service: "The reality is if you make it so Bryson can’t play he will figure it out.
"They can easily change this whole situation by scaling the rough on courses and they aren’t talking about that.
"Instead of having the same rough 200 yards out from the green, you scale it. At 200 yards it’s an inch and a half deep. At 60 yards it’s six or seven inches deep. The game can go back to strategy and risk and reward if you scale the rough in the right way.
“If you scale the rough it becomes back to how it used to be.”
Totally agree with that.
Equally have a 1st 2nd & 3rd Cut of rough.
But then Bryson never missed by that much
That was my foot at Gleneagles in 2014. Any mere mortal would have been screwed in that (and most Yanks were) ditto at Le Golf National in Paris.
Bryson? Lob Wedge
That’s just slightly shorter that the 1st cut rough at Paultons just after lockdown
Any ball off the fairway was gone
After ten holes and ten balls I was seriously worried about having enough to finish the round
I did, but only by supplementing mine supply with those lost by the groups in front of me

It should be Ryder Cup week.
As a result, lots of stories and interviews out there.
This is a cracking read
Scottish Open this weekend. Rolex series so some big bucks to be won. Good field, Poulter Westwood Fleetwood Fitzpatrick & others back from over the pond.
It is WONDERFUL to see a PROPER golf course on TV and frozen golfers.
Also great to have Radar & Ken Brown actually back out walking the course with the players
Ah.
Almost feeling home sick.
Proper Golf Course & proper miserable weather.
Hopefully Mrs P_F will leave me in peace in front of the golf this afternoon
BMW PGA Championship this week, another excellent event, but without the celebrity pro-am. Course is looking great.
Mr Unpopular Patrick Reed has come over to try to win the Race to Dubai (which he currently leads)
Hate him for a lot of stuff, BUT he has been loyal to the European Tour for many years playing sufficient events every year to retain his card.
At least it’s not Polish Football commentary!
Ah.
So this is a thing now?
#FleetwoodMac
(IMHO should’ve been Cranberry Juice not water, but what do I know about TikTok)
Meanwhile.
The European Tour launched an initiative about inclusion recently.
Trying to break down barriers cost, exclusivity, dress codes etc to keep attracting players & supporters.
This week their flagship event is being played at Wentworth.
It is cold & windy.
So many of the leading younger players have rocked up and are playing in Hoodies!
And damn good they look in them.
But oh boy it has caused a shitstorm. Letters to The Times by the snobs, outrage on Twitter.
Most excellent
Game over.
IF I’m lucky takes me 2 shots to go 400 yes let alone carry.
Did have a golf ball of mine do more than 200mph though.
It was in my golf bag in the cargo hold when I took off for Miami once…
