I've decided the holographic images of the players are freaky and need to be stopped......

Show the golf ?!!!!!!!!!!!
Are they just wanting to show off the sky cart or something
They are playing right now - where is this “wall to wall uninterrupted coverage”

If links golf is so great, why all the talk about the weather? Surely the course should decide who wins not the wind and rain?

How someone plays decides who wins
The weather is part of a links course and how it’s set up and even built

Golf is an outdoor sport played in different weather, with different conditions on the ground derived from the weather.
Golf in a simulator is boring, though I have to confess persistent rain is not my favourite condition.

Flags are fairly still so the rain shouldn't affect them too much...

Nope......never heavy rain....this is run of the mill softy stuff.
Players are loving it, makes for an easy course as scoring suggests.

Via her grandfather who was in charge of the champions locker at a Muirfield Open my daughter 'inherited' Ben Crenshaw's discarded silver waterproofs and was the coolest junior girls dude for a couple of years.
Seeing the stuff those ex champions throw out after an Open is scary.
Lovely story of my Dad and Faldo there.
He saw a side to him that surprised him.

Weather is in now causing a bit of pain for the players - will be interesting to see what the leading score will be at the end
6 or 7 under maybe
I'm trying to work out if the Day outfit is worse than Scheffler's flappy jacket style. It's a close run thing.

The good news is Faldo is on comms
The bad news is - Laura Davies is with him

Probably because he doesn’t need any 99% of the time whereas you probably do need them 99% of the time.Why have I got better waterproofs than Scottie Sheffler??

We need to see more of this, the best players playing in the worst conditions. This is so much better than driver wedge that we see so often.
