OK guys, here's the deal: List who you think will win the British Open and the score at which they'll do it. If you pick the right person and nail the number, you win a prize worth winning.

St. Andrews has a par of 288 (72 x 4), and Tiger won it with 269 the last time it was there. It's undergone a few minor modifications since then.

My pick, for the record, is Tiger Woods at 278.

Clarification: you've gotta be the first person to pick the player and the score. In other words, nobody else can choose Tiger at 278.

Uh, you can't choose two. Edit your post with your choice.

I think he meant Tiger would win at 277 and Padraig would finish 2nd at 279. But that's just what I got out of it...

My pick Ian Poulter 278.

I didn't expect someone to choose Ian. I hope he does well.

(First Round)Tiger is -4 through 9. No bogeys, good start.

Missed it by 2 strokes. Does it count that he could have won with a 276? Bobkin got the score though.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
