Hi,

I tell you, the guy is on fire.
After last weeks French Open, this week's Loch Lomond.

Awesome long game, can really hit 2 and 3 irons. Good for Links golf.

Hopefully he performs next week at The Open.

Do you think he has a chance, or will he have difficult times like in all other majors before?

In my Tour Combo Bag:

Driver: Superquad 9.5°
5W: 2008 Burner 18°
3H: Idea Pro Gold 20°4H: 2008 Burner Rescue 22°Irons: MP52 R300 5-PWedges: Vokey SM 50.08, 54.11, 58.04, 60.11Putter: Itsy Bitsy SpiderBall: TP Red

Kaymer is solid... I enjoy watching him play... It'll be interesting to see how he can go from a parkland style course at Loch Lomond to the links style of Turnberry... He is obviously in fine form heading to the Open... Should be fun

luck? come on now! you lot couldnt get our number 10 or 11 batsman out in 45 minutes, you dont deserve to win if you cant do that! just unluckily for you that you didnt have a harmy from edgbaston and we didnt have a kasprowicz who felt the pressure and we were actually able to bat out the session!

The great thing about golf is that it isn't just the usual suspects anymore. Anyone can win.

It's not common for a guy to win back-to-back tournaments.

Most guys, after a win, usually sit out the following week.

Sitting out the following week doesn't mean a loss either. I'd say back2back counts as long as you tee it up no matter how long the layoff. I guess you could say I'm used to golf Tiger-style

But yeah - Kaymer's lookin goooooood

He's a real big time performer. Even though it should've been Retief's tournament.

Retief has thrown it away with missed 5 footers.

Solid player, good win, but I don't think he'll be a factor in The Open. It'll be interesting to see how he plays against a superior field under max pressure.

This is what Kaymer himself pretty much admitted in the TV interview afterwards.

If he tells that to himself, that's probably why he won't compete.

The field was superb this week, and also last week. If you win two tournaments in a row, you are definitely on the short list for the next one, even if it happens to be The Open

its hard to win a tournament when you drop 6 shots in 5 holes!

Kaymer looks like a good guy, got a nice swing too. Maybe he can pick up the legacy of Bernhard Langer.

As with the other young guns, McIlroy, Kim, Villegas, Casey, etc., he probably won't do anything extraordinary right away, but in time he can get good.

      I've been really happy with my game dispite not playing a tonne this year.    My two biggest weaknesses have had turn arounds. Driving and chipping has got much better. Used to slice my driver terribly every time, but managed to not hit 1 bad slice today. Chipping has just started to turn around, only mishit one from a weird lie where I didn't commit to the shot. Of 8 rounds this year, two in the 80s, three below 95, and only one over 100 (with horrible greens).    Just got to work on trying to at least go to the range once or twice a week for some consistency. Hit I think 4 really bad miss hits, and was a little slow starting with 3 or 4 mini slice/hooks with irons on the first few holes. Still much more good than bad shots, but more practice should get that good swing happening more and more frequently.
