I remember a certain Mr Norman being 6 shots clear of Mr Faldo a few years ago.
It's not over 'til the fat lady sings as Dame Laura might say...

I'm hoping a certain Cam Smith doesn't think it's all over. I've got twenty crisp ones riding on him...???[/QUOTE
Me too @16/1

Can’t win on here.
A player is calm and gives sensible interviews he has no character.

A player gets a bit sweary, let’s his feelings out or says what he thinks and they are a disgrace.

Hatton seems like a perfectly nice bloke, but swears a bit. And what a shock that some don’t have a problem with Trump loving Reed. Despite him being a serial cheat. But we’ll forgive that eah?

Well I like both Scottie and Cam.

As I said many pages ago I took Scottie to win outright at 28/1 and Cam at 14/1 E/W. I also took TW at 40/1, but that was just to soften the Tiger-fest which I knew was nailed on.

As soon as it was deemed 'boring'! But there's nothing wrong with 'boring' golf either! Nick Faldo made a career out of it and Dustin Johnson isn't exactly 'exciting' to watch! DuChambeau apparently needs to become 'more boring' in the minds of some, so there's apparently no chance of pleasing everybody! Personally, I don't mind either style, though 'exciting' is, by its natue, more interesting to watch.
Hmmm,,see what you're saying, but not too sure it's true for all those who really understand and are keen on a sport.
Noticing and appreciating the finer points, clevernesses of a sport may seem boring but I find it very interesting to watch someone very skilled at something I am interested in. It may seem mundane and routine to a lot of people but a calm skill is to be appreciated.
Take F1 for instance. Not much interest to me, a seeming procession, but to the cognoscenti I'm sure it can be fascinating what is going on.
Of course, no doubt, many would find it interesting if there were some spectacular crashes, but not really what is desired!
I find Scheffler's calmness during his meteoric rise to be good side of his character, perhaps not many would possess it. And I would like to see him succeed.
But, like Ethan, I hope he doesn't "thank God etc" should he win.

Was going so well on here with so much golf to enjoy until the arguments in an empty room start spoiling it. Roll on the live coverage and we can comment on the brilliance of the shots rather than wives hair colour and the ilk.

Is it a two horse race? Can Im get into the mix? Looking forward to an interesting evening
