OMG Just seen that my two favourites, Jason and Louis are saddled with Woods today. Having a donkey playing with you often pulls the play of the rest down towards his level. I hope their caddies have got horse blinkers in the bags so they don't need to see it..

[quote name="Abu3baid" url="/t/83040/2015-british-open-at-st-andrews-discussion-thread/390#post_1170512"] Now that's just mean..[/quote]haters gonna hate


Danny Willett? Marx Warren? What the hey? The wind is supposed to switch here soon so imagine if Willett gets to 12 and all of a sudden he's playing those holes downwind? Huge advantage for the morning guys. Afternoon guys are gonna get hosed

Yeah who is this guy and how is he on top of the leaderboard? 1 top 10 in his career and he is 39th in the world? Huh?

Hate to say it, but Willett may be this year's Oosthuizen......get in early at -11 or -12 and then the wind will like blow like hell as soon as he finishes and the rest of the guys begin to plummet.

He's solid! Here's his OWGR performance.

T6 Dubai. 3rd WGC Match Play. Won a Euro tourney end of 2014.

The info I'm looking at is probably just the PGA tour then I'm assuming.. But at the same time we are taking about they nedbank golf challenge? Also, T57 at the Abu Dhabi HSBC? MC at US open, MC At players.. You have to admit the guy is virtually unknown..

He may be virtually unknown, but he has one thing going for him......He may getting the luckiest end of the draw, and could be huge.

I guess I just happened to catch coverage of some of his good tournaments recently. He's someone I'm somewhat familiar with.

In fact I picked him in this thread--> http://thesandtrap.com/t/82680/pick-5-guys-that-will-finish-in-top-10-that-are-out-of-top-25-world-rankings/0_30#post_1155756

How wrong I was! Missed the cut, as you said. Lol.

Also, I wrote T6 Dubai, when I meant Irish Open! I watched him there and was impressed. Probably why I picked him in the US Open above.

Is Justin Rose wearing Oakley's? Seems a bit odd - I thought he had his own Adidas Sunglasses?


Willett is not unknown for the European Tour followers. Having a good season, won a fairly big tournament

Agreed - definitely getting better and backing himself far more since the Nedbank. Played well in the Irish too, if I remember rightly.

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

What's in the bag: Callaway X2 Hot Driver, Titleist 915F 3 wood, X2 Hot 3 Hybrid, 3, 5-AW Apex Pro irons, 54*, 58* Cleveland RTX, Odyssey Versa 1 Putter

Willett's an okay player. Wouldn't say he's great. More of a Webb Simpson type if you want to compare him to a PGA guy. Marc Warren is another guy I'm not too familiar with but he has the golfing physique and swing. Really think the afternoon guys may get screwed here. I have a feeling brutal winds are coming.

The afternoon groups got screwed yesterday, so it all works out.

    • Day 329 - More full swings, focusing on the finish. Started with half swings, finished with full swings.
    • Day 146: mirror work again. Working on the same backswing stuff. 
    • Didn’t get back to a decent routine in November and December as planned.  I really need to get up earlier and get to the 7 am CrossFit class… but I’m too tired. Right now getting in 3 times a week. Going to get some swing speed exercises in too.  January-April should be Monday - Friday, load up on supplements too.
    • “The stuff legends are made of…” 😁 As long as OEM’s keep replacing them…. But if it cracks 2 years in, you’re screwed on the warranty. the Cobra Dark Speed driver gets rave reviews.  Haven’t heard of breakage issues.  Taylormade now came out with the Qi35 heads.  Absolutely stunning but it’s a carbon fiber sole as well as the face and crown.  I guess we’ll see.
    • Day 71 - 2024-12-10 I spent three minutes trying to figure out when someone started calling me Yoda, even though he remains the only person to call me Yoda… then in a hotel room, I spent ten minutes while watching the 2019 Masters on YouTube (the TV doesn't have Golf Channel) working on my wrist conditions.
