So many elite sportspeople make comebacks, it’s their right and who knows why they want to.
Scholes and Schumacher famously did..wasn’t too successful. Lance Armstrong did - which spectacularly backfired
Really shouldn’t be boxing….just because someone is in a big fight, that’s not necessarily at the top level — they have just built their name / their market value = they are valuable to the TV networks and promoters to sell a fight
Pro boxing is more a case of ‘who can generate the biggest...
Lucky boy!! Walking up the rumbled fairway on the 16th hole on an empty St Enodoc, at sunset, with Padstow gleaming white in the distance and the sea a brilliant blue, is very close to golfing heaven. One of my favourite holes and favourite memories playing this wonderful game of ours ❤️
Everyone is different and it takes all sorts to make a world etc etc blah blah blah…
With this extra information, this is no longer a difficult problem your friend has….its bloomin’ obvious what the answer is!! 🤣
I would go with the opposite of most of the forum, it seems, and go for the much better course and the extra 50 mins driving as at the same price
if you’re wanting to play lots and lots of golf then obviously go for the closer course….but ‘I’ would prefer (and my circumstances are such) that I...
Well Steven Gerrard didn’t go to Chelsea because of the consequences…(death threats from the adoring LFC faithful)…so there is a precedent for sportsman thinking of the consequences (in both cases, threats - albeit of very different kinds) before declining moves..
Does nobody think Channel 4 and those who came up with the idea, and the editors of it, did not have an ‘angle’ that informed which people to seek out etc?
Just like Love Island and Big Brother and those chosen to be characters on those shows, isn’t a genuine snapshot of our society — those in...
I would think that the fact that it’s a Golf documentary and it’s made by Channel 4 gives it all away..
Channel 4 is basically The Guardian, so you can imagine what it’s going to be going for in its choice of who and what to include in its expose of a ‘typical golf club and it’s members’ 🤪
My mid-handicap amateur eye says that your boy is getting into some very good body shapes - his follow-through and body balance on the penultimate photo in particular is what I would like to achieve..
I don’t think I’ll ever get there🙄🤣
I would love to finish 2026 having played Hunstanton, Brancaster, St George’s Hill and Worplesdon…..that to me would be top golfing success beyond my wildest dreams. A few years ago I reckon it would be achievable..
These days I would be lucky to play just one of those by years end…and I’d...
I don’t think there’s many golfers or general TV viewing population who are describing it as “all a bit of fun”
It’s another way to milk some money out of the game but I don’t think anyone cares who wins it at all…not players and not ‘fans’
Greatly enjoyed Thurlestone - had wall-to-wall brilliant sunshine and strong 25mph winds…what’s not to love!?! The views are simply breathtaking
I hadn’t picked up a club in at least 2 months and so was fairly pleased with how I played…putting however was as usual, bloody awful 🤣🙄🤣
I booked Thurlestone…
In a few short days time I will let any and all avid readers know what I thought of it, how well/badly I played, and what ‘she’ thought of it all..🤪🤣
