He didn't win because he didn't write ""I want to win a Callaway Big Bertha Driver""? Tough. Such a great guess as well.

When will the media come to a consensus and call it either Hoylake or Royal Liverpool?

Rory is sporting the worst hat ever...

Tiger just ripped a 3 wood down 18 into the wind 300 yards. I'm not sure what the game plan was today but he literally hit his driver today like an 8 handicap.  Nike needs to build him a franke

We probably would have accepted his second entry (and just deleted his first) if he hadn't changed the scores in re-posting.

Correct, he changed the scores and that's what invalidated his entries.

Rory McIlroy  -17

Victor Dubuisson  -17

Joost Luiten  -17

(I think this is going to be a scoring fest)

If that's true, who ever is enforcing that rule, I wish you many years of a sexless marriage.

It's almost entirely the second entry with different scores that did it.

Preliminarily, it's @saevel25 with the win and @Yukari with second place. If anyone sees any differently, please post soon.

Haha, behave, if his first entry didn't count and was invalid, then it shouldn't matter what he put or changed, his first valid entry was Rory at -17..

Again, it probably would have been fine if he didn't change the scores

So is it really gonna be Rory for the next decade? Or is he actually gonna have some competition from the youngsters? I need more out of Spieth before I will crown him like TGC has.

This era isn't going to be defined by a single player, and I'm fine with that. The key thing right now is that we're in a five-year run of great champions who will never appear on a "worst players to win a major" list. The generation of players burdened with the "next Tiger" expectations are playing the best golf of their careers in their early thirties, and the generation in their twenties has been very good from the beginning.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...

His first entry wasn't invalid, he just needed to quote his post and add the "Big Bertha" text. Just as these guys did

He didn't do that and modified the scores, invalidating his entry in the contest.

Congrats @saevel25 on the win.

I really wished the Open app had the ability to disable push notifications.

Settings -> Notifications

Or something like that on iOS anyway.

I went through every possible menu screen for the android but no "settings" menu was available.
