Ricoh Womens British Open

Its painful to watch, poor standard, slow, constant backing off, being realigned etc

The wind is pretty strong up here where i am today to be fair so i would imagine its a lot stronger up in Birkdale.

Yeah its blowing a fair bit but still think its been v poor (and im a fan of womens golf usually). US Open recently they moved tees and got the set up right for the standard of golf, feel this is set up too tough in the conditions. Pretty sure theres not been a single birdie shown in the last hour, and barely heard a ripple of applause from any crowd in that time either.

As for the BBC commentary trying to tell us a different story........
 
Very bland viewing. Trying to find something positive to say about the coverage (shocking commentating and punditry) and some poor golf

im not fussed about commentary as theres a lot to fill, but there has been little to cheer today as far the golf goes. Unless petterson holes out from the bunker....
 
It is so boring it is nearly more interesting listening to Alliss talking about when he played there in 1954 with Sid Scott............for goodness sake how much longer have we got to put up with this clown.
 
The old drone Alliss saying 'oh Charles' as Hull was missing a putt says it all.

The quicker he disappears the better.

Thought his best work today when to a shot of a baby dressed in blue Alliss commented;

'That's the age to get them started, I wonder if she will remember this day'
 
Was nice to see the winners smile,she seemed genuine which is nice.
Some of the others just need to liven up.
Saying that I can be a little miserable sometimes:D

Have to agree, she seemed completely stunned to have won, then very nice to see all the other players congratulating her
 
I love the irony of a load of forumites who normally sprout all sorts of rubbish, suggesting that Alliss is a clown etc. whether you like him or not, he knows more than you, plays better than you, has done more than you. Wy are you so vindictive ?? Does it make you feel like a better person ?

Agreed - he is a golfing legend. Is it his accent and educated air that annoys some people?
