Golf World Golf thread - Welcome to the The Masters

Summed up beautifully. This narrative that the Saudis were never going to stop spending so why not have the cash in the mainstream game is a bs justification.
I was inspired by Rory sticking to his principles, JT, Speith etc.
You know the PGA tour could have just stuck to their guns. LIV wouldn’t have lasted. Now the Saudis have exactly what they always wanted and they will NOT grow the game. They won’t come down here, Korea, STH Africa, Japan from where a big chunk of talent emerges. Nup, but I bet they play a PGA event in the Middle East.

So the new merged entity will be effectively a PGA tour where events are played mostly in the USA. I feel that the if this happens it will make PGAers pretty happy.

Whilst I was pro LIV, I admired Rory sticking to his guns (pgat = USA = guns) and taking on the role as spokesperson. Room for debate and opinions. I do wonder what happens from here on in with his career. Does he accept money/influence from an organisation that double crossed him, and another that hands out blood money/human rights problems.

Watching the playoff at the Canadian Open par 5 18th Fleetwood tees off with an iron 2nd shot hits a fairway wood strange club selection I would have thought

 

[chickenonachain]

Now he’s hit his fairway wood into the grandstand

4th play off hole now

 

[chickenonachain]

Tommy back in the rough with an iron off the tee gotta say he’s sticking to his game plan

[Satan]

Oh canada

 

[Livonski]

Wow! Big putt!

 

[Satan]

69 years since a canadian won the local open 72 ft winning put

 

[peternorth]

Nick Taylor. A life changer!!

And interesting that a Canadian defeats a Brit whilst the maple leaf flag flies high (no union jack)

 

[Woody15]

Epic putt! So close again Tommy..

Adam Hadwin getting rinsed by the security guards for running on the green with champagne is the icing on the cake

 

[IKnowtheDog]

The SCG has found their new security team

 

[AmericanCrow]

[AmericanCrow]

So true…then it’s a high tackle

You guys get away with everything

 

[Satan]

Had prior opportunity

 

[Woody15]

Great angle

 

[AmericanCrow]

Honestly, better linebacker than Browns JOK by far

I would take him

 

[Woody15]

Nick Taylor's 72 footer for a walk-off win will be forever overshadowed by Adam Hadwin being tackled. Epic.

Given the drama in recent weeks with pro golf, this is a rather refreshing take before the drama undoubtedly returns for the US Open.

Watching a replay on Fox tonight of 2006 US Open at Winged Foot. One question it raised for me, do people still use a 4 wood?
