If Stenson really has found his way back from his high 70s to 80 scores then I think he will win it. I only saw the last couples of holes but his 275 yard shot to the 18th green that landed 2 yards from the flag was insane.

Kaymer recovered well today are a poor start. Dustin Johnson doing only very average also. Big mistake by Kaymer to try and change his swing earlier on this year.

Yeah, why did Kaymer change his swing? Can't understand why you would change your swing when you have  a winning concept... Any ideas?

Apparently, he wants to be able to hit a draw off the tee. We'll have to wait and see if it was a good idea.

Looking at his swing before and after, he's definitely trying to get more inside on the takeaway and downswing.

The younger Americans seem to be coming over to Europe more these days. Bubba Watson is playing the French Open next week, for example.

I'm done with Sergio. He treats me like a rag doll.

Then three putts to lose it all. What a shocker.

Good to see him contend again, though. And that finish gets him into the Open -- so a pretty good week nonetheless.

Very disappointed Sergio could not pull out the win. Great to see him playing well again. I just want to see him win a tournament relatively soon!

Maybe the Open Championship?!

I can dream, can't I?

    • Yeah, let's just ignore that there were only 5-10 great players back then… 🤣 Ha ha ha. Whatever you guys have to tell yourselves… Tiger won MAJORS 22 years apart. That's a long time. He wasn't missing the top ten on the money list because he sucked, it's because he didn't play due to injuries.
    • Pretty accurate.  Another way you can look at it is how many years was Jack top 10 on the money list. It used to be the list that mattered, nothing else came close. Jack was top 10 from 1962-1978 and then once more in 1983 making 18 years total. He had another 4 inside the top 20. He was #1 8 times.  Tiger was top 10 from 1997-2009, 2012-2013, and 2018 which is 16 times total. His next best were 24th and 38th in 2019-2020. He was #1 10 times.  Honestly, they're both pretty long but Jack has quite a few more seasons in the upper ranks. Makes sense when Tiger barely played in 2010-2011 and then again from 2015-2017, and pretty much 2020 onwards. That's not an excuse for Tiger though.
    • Bangers and mash. In keeping with the golf theme.🫢
    • Played three and a half rounds in England last week. I will not be playing more than maybe 4 rounds on any one course. Probably only about 20 rounds all year and between 4 and 8 of those will be alternate shot, so don't really count. Off to a pretty good start though. Three and a half rounds gave me 5 birdies and an eagle (with two of those birdies being on the same hole number). 
    • First round of 2026. No birdies and a very pedestrian 86. Maybe I should have hit a few balls over the past 100 days. Next year!
