I don’t think he’s playing the same game as he was, Centurion requires an element of accuracy on a few holes and he did ok there.

not sure.
Always looks to be in contention recently tho.
His putter can be hot & cold,but certainly looked better on the greens last wk.
He is short at 8/1 tho.

For me it's the oldest major, people in golf should know what it's called. I won't lose any sleep over it but it does niggle.I know that’s not what it’s called,just a bit odd how precious people get over it

Never. It seemsI thought folk had run out of stuff to argue about.
Bets are on…..
Main two are Jon Rahm and Cameron Smith.
Couple of smaller bets on DJ and Talor Gooch.
Really think the weather could play a big part this week and depending which side of the draw you get.

Re naming convention, I think we have to chill a bit & cut some slack
This forums shown there’s more than a few who didn’t/don’t know the difference between the PGA of America and the PGAT & perhaps more relatable, many of us on here use variants such as the US Masters or just The Masters but isn’t it supposed to be The Masters Tournament
I don't see posters on here clambering to correct the rest of the online world on that one. Folks in glasshouses...

Hopefully you weren't hoping to watch Smith in one of the featured groups....
Not sure if there's a legitimate reason the reigning champ isn't getting coverage, but it's irked a few people over on twitter.

Before the proper action gets underway. We have a The Open individual/pairs comp on Sunday that I'm looking forward to
Individual scoring for us but everyone gets drawn a Pro from Hoylake and their Saturday result is added to our own Sunday score to determine the placings
Could salvage a mediocre round or ruin a worldie depending on who you get!

We've got a blue tee scramble at our place, teams are drawn to include varying levels of handicap - it'll be the first time the youth has played off our back tees, at 7030 yards, it's proper championship length - I'm sure he'll love it..

What featured groups? How do people know what groups are “featured” or not
The Open shows multiple people regardless. The all get coverage
He is playing with the US Open champion and Schuaffle during the prime spots
The only people that are “irked” are LIV bots who are trying to create something out of nothing

“Members of The One Club will be able to watch live streams of two morning and two afternoon groups at www.theopen.com/watch, including Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm.”
As with the likes of the Masters there will be multiple options for people to watch on Sky or host broadcasters and Smith will get coverage

Doesn't bother me at all but it is also held outside Britain.
Edit
Just catching up see the point has been discussed before.
Maybe they should just seek sponsorship and call it the Liv open to end controversy.

It’s what you’d expect to pay, captive audience etc.
Certainly seen much worse at football grounds here in the UK.

Thought occurred to me watching 'On The Range' last night.
Most have them have a very deliberate grip config but in all the threads I see on here re club fitting and how fandabbydosey it is, I don't recall folks saying the fitter tried me on xyz grip then abc grip
Are different grips part of the club fitting for AMs ?

In that case...Wikipedia is the oracle of truth...
The Open Championship - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
The Open Championship, often referred to as The Open or the British Open, is the oldest golf .....
"In 2017, a representative of the R&A openly stated that it is a priority to "eradicate the term British Open" and have a single identity and brand of "The Open" in all countries.[76] Tournament partners, such as the PGA Tour, now refer to it without "British" in the title,[77] media rightsholders are contractually required to refer to the event as The Open Championship,[76] and the official website has released a statement titled "Why it's called 'The Open' and not the 'British Open'" stating that "The Open is the correct name for the Championship. It is also the most appropriate".[73] The R&A's stance has attracted criticism from some commentators.[76][78][79]"
