The new season begins.
Bit meh from Rory mind.
The Invitational is at Dubai Creek - deemed too narrow for “big crowds” so only ever staged 1 Desert Classic.

I used to play every Wednesday - Members Guest - loved the course - met the whole England Team in 2002 on their way to Japan - played a round with Michael Owen. Introduced my Grandson to Brian Lara there.

I also shot a 66 there.

Then played the back 9

Torrey Pines
Tough tournament different course each day on the cliff top in SoCal.

45 year old Justin Rose has played 36 holes and is 17 under par insane golf

Walking off 18 his caddy says Thankyou for letting me watch..

(Tbh that was one of my lines back in the day but never saw 2 rounds like this)

Rose eventually won with a course record

It was like watching a gamer in cheat mode. Superb to watch.

And he really is a nice guy as well, but the work he must do physically and technically to be able to outdrive those youngsters must be insane.

Deserves a Masters this year…

And here we go.
1 fucked metal knee, 1 crumbling mass of pain.

No go fund me’s, no gym membership
