That's what I was thinking but Rosey is out 3rd or 4th last group?
2024 Troon Open

But wasn’t that down to the weather conditions on the day? Was it ok for the early starters and wind picked up later in the day? I only saw highlights so just assuming that might be the case.

Is there any rule to state that they should be reachable in regulation in adverse weather?

Had they moved them up, the early boys would have rained in birdies and even more people would have moved up the leaderboard to content.

The back 9 was tough all day the early groups made light work of the front 9
Even if you moved the tees up 30 yards on some everyone’s hitting long irons into them i think it’s a fair ask for the pros trying to win a championship that they should be rewarded for great shots not be 30 yards short
im playing devils advocate here mind as a viewer I was loving watching the test
Billy Horschel put on a hell of a short game display sure he was 6/6 up and downs from an average of 50 yards back 9
It’s been one of the great opens for me just needs to finish off with a bit drama

On the back 9 ? No chance no one’s tore up the back 9 all week

Coastal weather is unpredictable.
But if they are 30 yards short after two great shots it tests their long and short game.
Would it have been considered a great hole if it was a par 5 under those conditions?

Are you sure?
According to @Doon frae Troon yesterday morning
"Love to know which forecast you are quoting
I'm local to Troon and it is nothing like that........light showers and a gentle breeze here, no showers so far.
Perfect scoring conditions here and looks like the same on the course.
Looks good for tomorrow".
Presumably making it embarrassingly easy in the morning.
They are the best on the planet. They just need to suck it up and get on with it.

Sky's pictures and sound out of sync. Nick Doughty lip-syncing Faldo.
It reminds me of the scene in Singing in the Rain where Gene Kelly and Debbie Reynolds are out of sync. No, No, No, Yes, Yes Yes.
If you haven't seen it you won't have a clue.

I haven't backed him but I really want Rosey to win this.
Sadly, I can't see beyond Scheffler at the moment.

Horschel's cardigan is a lovely touch.

Feel like we've waited a long time for a finish like this.
