PING Apologist #9 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 So I'll start this one early this time... Who are your favorites to take this one leading up to the Open and why? I'll start (and I'm usually pretty bad picking these...) I say Brandt Snedeker. He has been on the cusp these last couple of tournies and I think he's playing some pretty good golf right now. As for the defending champ, a one Mr. DeChambeau, my guess is that he'll be mind-screwed with the latest blow from the USGA.

GB13 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I'll actually take DeChambeau. I bet he come out with fire to show the USGA that they can make any crazy ruling they want he can still win.

Undershooter Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Ahh the 5th major... I'll take Bryson and ZJ if he's playing. If not give me Burger or even Stricker for a lock top 20...

"Shoulder issue" **wink wink** I'm thinking it's more like: "I had to show up bc I'm the defending champ but I want my Open prep so my shoulder is suddenly sore and I'm going flying to Carnoustie and WD."

Could be. We'll know soon enough as Carnoustie practice rounds are less than a week away.

OK, help me out here. I'm admittedly not fluent with all the USGA rules. So you're not allowed to play multiple ball types during a round? If that's the case, I'd be perpetually DQ'd.

Sounds like many tour events use the "One Ball Rule". So a player is forced to pick one particular manufacture and model of ball for the whole round - lose a ProV1 in the water, replace with same?This seems kind of odd to me. II'll add it to my list of rules to change.

Kor.A.Door Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 M. Kim lapped the field, not bad for the first win, he played really well. And how about the kid at the Scottish open with his first win final round 60. Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
