chillumpuffer Posted April 11, 2016 Posted April 11, 2016 Been really tied up the last few days with work and last evening at ELO who were fantastic. Congrats to Danny Willet who is a solid Northern lad. Superb performance from him and I am watching the highlights as I type and waiting to see Speiths meltdown on the 12th Quote
Strider Posted April 11, 2016 Posted April 11, 2016 I think it's fair to say nobody saw that coming! Quote
chillumpuffer Posted April 11, 2016 Posted April 11, 2016 It's not the first time Jordan has had a meltdown on that hole. Think 2 years ago? Quote
badgeholder Posted April 11, 2016 Posted April 11, 2016 Wouldn't you know, I fall asleep before the last nine holes. "Well, Speith's got a five shot lead, it's a done deal" right? I wake up to see he's now two shots back! I'm sure my neighbors heard me saying "What the fuck happened!" lol Quote

I watched The BBC 2 coverage up until 10.30 pm then turned over to Beeb 1 to watch the three Sunday game highlights when Speith was at 7 under, when I turned back almost an hour later Willet is the leader..What....Well done Danny Willet for nickin'it at the end......."Everybody nick's it"......... Quote
Walter Posted April 11, 2016 Posted April 11, 2016 Yep, it was an amazing turnaround. When Spieth made the turn, I said to Walter Jr "there's nothing like the back nine at Augusta". Then bogey, bogey at 10&11 - then the twelfth.... Huge congrats to Willet - a 67 on Sunday at The Masters is worthy of winning it and not just receiving the green jacket because another lost strokes. Spieth has now finished 2nd, 1st, 2nd in his three trips to the greatest tournament of the year. He will be back for more jackets that's for sure! What about all of those hole-in-one shots at 16? The last one was unparalleled. Quote
JTM Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 British Open time again, bit of a downer though because this year it's only live on Murdoch TV not The BBC, so we have fucking commercial breaks every few minutes....fuck it, I'm switching off, can't stand commercials....Come on BBC put the money up and buy it back... edit...I'll wait for the BBC highlights later on tonight, no commercials....

I agree man. Murdoch TV, when acquiring the rights, said they would show only 1 ad at the break. Lying bastards. I timed the coverage. 15 minutes of golf - I mean forever looking at the leader board, talking at the "sky cart" with people who have just played,a really dull commentary team except Boxie and Wayne Riley, then a few mins of action, leader board, views of the sea etc. Then 2 or 3 ads mainly betting. For US fans this would be like watching a movie of course. In fairness I didn't expect anything else. At least we haven't got that fat, bloated has been Alliss, with his bigoted and frankly sexist views. Highlights though JTM will only be putting and I can do without that. It looks a picture though and a real good test. Tomorrow though looks like it will playing in a washing machine. Pity the players cos that back nine will make even the best players look like an 18 handicapper ! Quote

So Murdoch's channels suck everywhere? I thought we were the lucky ones.... I almost forgot the tourney began today. I'll have to check out ESPN this afternoon, after work, to see how they are handling Royal Troon. How's the weather over there? I've only seen CP's miserable weather posts from across the pond. Quote

Who does the announcing for Murdoch TV? Is that Skynet? Usual Murdoch crew of blonde bimbos? What's the rain forecast? Quote

What's the rain forecast? Rain rain and more rain. Phil was magnificent yesterday and solid already today. There is a bimbo who interviews the players. Mrs CP said she had that much make up on she was surprised she could open her eyes. Ads update - seems Sky have reverted to 8 mins action before the inevitable drivel. One thing though: No moronic fat twats shouting "Get in the hole" or "Mashed Potater" "DJ DJ DJ DJ......" contd on the PGA Tour Quote

Walter Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Watching a good final round battle at Royal Troon. Anyone else tunning in? Quote
Walter Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Going to the 11th separated by 1. Spectacular round of golf by Mickelson and Stenson. Quote
chillumpuffer Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Sure am. It's magnificent. Cheering for Phil. But what about Beef !!!! Quote
Walter Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Can't believe Mickelson sunk that putt to save par on 12. Quote

Old school never brought in the young punters man ! He is a refreshing change from the miserable bastards who don't smile and never shout fore and who have no time for anyone. Anyone who says " Hey man I'm having a great time - now where are the steak (s)" is OK in my book. This is real matchplay golf for the Open Quote

Never knew him before this week. Stenson up by one now - perfect drives on 15! Quote
JTM Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Well that's Beef done, pity about all the dropped shots, he was in third place when I tuned in. Not a bad few hours of Golf, congrats to Stenson hard luck to Mickelson.... Quote
Walter Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 According to his agent, Tiger is done for the year without even having swung a club in a competitive round. How the mighty have fallen.... Quote
