So they reckon a 5 handicap would not break 100.
Looks tough but 100.
Anyone know what slope it is.

I'm struggling to break 100 round my own course right now

Not confirmed but I read:
Course rating 79.1, Slope rating of 155

So it’s difficult then.
I might try and get there next year to test the theory.

Christ Poulter, please change your fashion taste as you get a little older ?

 

[MarkT]

I appreciate the 17th is a really tough hole but Calcavecchia’s shank in 91 seems to have elevated it to impossible status

Ooooh here we go......did Poulter just have a 180 or a 360?

Never mind that, what about Grace's plugged ball in that waste area. He did well to find it.

unlike the bloke whose ball was about 2 ft to the left and even more buried!

Tough crowd

Shame for Sam Burns hurting his back lifting the trophy last Sunday

Yes you're right, I saw that but wasn't 100% sure that it was a ball and the commentary team didn't appear to mention it.

Not impossible but Homa likely thinks it's tough now

Fair play to Rich Beem, was in the comm box this morning, shot 74 this afternoon!!!!

 

[fundy]

8 mins to chip it down into the bottom of the bunker, how long would Lowry have to have taken to get a slow play pen?

 

[Slab]

Well that's the slow play gauntlet well and truly thrown down :74secs to play got Catlin on the clock, 63 sec to play a few holes later got him one shot penalty

Sunday afternoon is going to be littered with penalties

If only it actually worked that way. Genuinely, I wish that was now the mark at which penalties came in but it wont

Do you think it would actually be fun off the back tees?

No.
We have done that before and made a rule not to be so stupid in future.
We play the nearest tees to 6500 yds or you just don’t enjoy it.
18 of the 100 shots they were talking about would be used just on the length alone
As Said “ there would be a headcover off for every second shot” then a wedge to get on the green.

Does anybody know who designed the Kiawah Island Ocean course please as the commentators never mention it at all. ? I actually feel like I know them and have met them numerous times ?
