Was a couple behind when I turned in, still some chances to play but he seemed to be very fidgety on the tee again so I wasn't that confident. Sounds like he played 18 very well.

A classic ball strikers win.
The best from tee to green, like he’s normally good at. But had a good week on the greens, which he isn’t usually so good at.

I think its safe to say....Fleetwood is a choker

Yips

A pro of that standard not even hitting the hole. Shocking.

Get in Aaron! Delighted for him, local lad for me. Shame he clinched it through a mistake from Fleetwood, but the way he played today it was much deserved.

Yes well done to Rai.

He didn't know what to say in his interview, he was clearly embarrassed to have won it that way. First Rock's shocker on 18 in regulation then Fleetwood's horrible miss. Hw showed great sportsmanship given the circumstances.

I see Rory is posting some pictures of his trackman as he looks to add some speed and distance

Got the ball speed up to 190mph and the carry over the 350 yard mark!!!!


Wonder if McGinley and his mates on sky will be so derogatory as they are to Bryson lol

Wonder if he's heard anything about the conclusions of the governing bodies re their report on how to reduce Pros length ( ball technology, or whatever)
I thought I heard the pundits saying conclusions had been reached but not yet published? Is that right?
If the ball is being "changed", ...".?

I find he's always a bit disparaging of McIlroy, and, equally, that McIlroy is equally dismissive of McGinley!

I've noticed this too. I reckon they had a falling out at the Ryder Cup.

 

[birdyhunter]

It took McGinley about 3 sentences before he had a dig at DeChambeau in his opening comments on Sky today... and he's not even playing at Wentworth!

Ten minutes of 'commentary' from Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan then, was actually really funny.

Yeah it was a great plug, I didn't even know they had a show until now. "Great player but completely devoid of apex there"

 

[fundy]

Commentary better than their golf lol
