Hi,

I am a new member of this website. I am about to enter a pool for the british open, we are requested to pick 12 players. And to be honest I am pretty new at all this, I was wondering if some of you guys could help me with that! We have to pick, what we think will be the top 12!

Looking forward to reading your opinions!

1) Rory (just because of his iron play is so pure, and the rough hasn't grown fast over there)

2) Luke Donald

3) Louis Ohestesan (spelling?)

4) Jason Day, he has been in there the last two majors

5) K.J. choi

But the kid i think who might be the next breakout this week would be Jason Day, he's been play so well. Theres my top 5

They don't have to be in order. It's a very hard thing to do I find, the last time we did it, some people lost 4-5 players, I hope none of them will withdraw! Haha!

That Oosthuizen spelling was terrible

Didn't Sergio Garcia withdraw from a few games? Yet again, he will be at home this time, maybe that will keep him going...

I believe you are referring to Sergio withdrawing from a qualifier for the Open due to a finger injury.  But he qualified for the Open by virtue of his second place finish at BMW Championship.

    • Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there. 
    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
    • Day 12 - 2025-12-31 Limited time today, and heavy rains here. 5-10 minutes of mirror work for full swing, working on trail side.
