570 yard par 5, or driver , 9 iron and roll it in for Bryson lol

The tee shot was 137mph clubhead speed, 196mph ball speed, 345 yards carry and 376 yards total!!!! The tv cameras picked it up with their green cam looking back!!!!!!!!

The previous hole he "ballooned his driver" and carried the strategically placed bunker on the corner of the dog leg by 65 yards!

I see Matt Fitzpatrick has been on the lookout for a stand in caddie as Billy Foster not travelling yet, got a message from Bones offering his services for a couple of weeks. Result!!!

If it were possible, I would say that Webb's swing is even more egregious this week than the last time it was inflicted on me...
In other news, looks like Tom Lewis from just down the road in wgc is going to make his first tour cut (Hope that didn't jinx it).

PGA tour cut maybe. T11 at the 2019 Open wasn't too shabby.
Hey. Words chosen with care!
In all seriousness, although the way that US tv coverage drives me crazy with the way it ignores all other events when giving stats (Just like the prem) I do think it's something of a career milestone to make the first cut over there.
I've had a few lessons with his dad over the years, and he's a decent bloke.

hes won twice on the european tour and on the korn ferry, nice guy on all accounts too

Yes, he has won the West Herts pro am (very prestigious obviously), and came across as a very nice chap.

Unlike Matthew Southgate, sadly, who has let himself down there. Getting spannered and abusing the bar staff alwsys goes down so well.

Can't see Bones needing to have the same kind of "debates" with Fitzpatrick that he used to have with Mickelson ?

The US commentators were just discussing how there'll be 1 major in 2020 and 6 majors in 2021!

Took a while to figure out they were meaning in terms of Fed Ex cup points ?‍♂️

I'm gonna be as parochial as the US commentators and celebrate East Hert's (the district, not the club) finest currently sitting in 11th position after birdies on 17 and 18...
