    Strangely Shane Lowry decided to pull out of the St Jude tournament in Tennessee this week- "Shane Lowry is unwell" 😁

    I'd have preferred he got it right this time as I backed him😭😭 Lot more to it that . This was a once in a lifetime thing for him, the Open coming to Northern Ireland- it came across in his emotional interview last night how much it had got to him. Such a massive thing for his home Country, the nerves just got to him on his very first shot. Think it only hit him afterwards just how much it did mean for everyone.

    Shame he's out- the way the home crowd got behind him today was amazing. And Tiger out too
  4. Haven't heard that in years- used to think that was cutting edge😀
  5. De Light to Juventus for £67.5 million and the get to pay over 5 years! If Wan Bissaka went for £50 million, this has to be a "bargain". https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49029025

    Darren Clarke lead the Open -2 at 7-30. It's coming home😉

    You got some decent prices, Rahm seems to have shortened up generally by a couple of points. Isn't Jason Day the guy who is always injured, even vertigo once when playing?

    I've shopped around for better prices and traded off getting less places. Most of mine are 7 places McIlroy 20ew @ 9/1 (10.0)- can't believe I'm going ew at that price Rahm 20ew @ 15/1 (16.0) Schuaffle 10ew @28/1 (29.0) Pepperell 10ew @125/1 (126.0) Jazz Janewattananond 5ew @ 300/1 (301.0) Andrew Putnam 2.50ew @300/1 (301.0)

    You are correct Sir! Apparently he was ranked 396th at the time. I must have misread from my original source. Interesting little bio on him https://www.theopen.com/players/ben-curtis

    This is excellent, short YouTube video about Rory breaking the course record at Royal Portrush as a 16 year old

    Open Championship starts Thursday. Read a preview piece looking the the official world ranking of the recent winners (OWGR). Of the last 19 winners 9 of 19 ranked in the world top 10 17 of 19 ranked in the top 55( hate retrofitting of stats but just done it myself🙄) The 2 outliers where Darren Clarke ranked 111 (tournament held in N Ireland-stewards enquiry? 🤔) and Ben Curtis rated 200th based in the world at the time- let's face if the 200th ranked player wins chance are he's not your selection. Seems only the best need apply- probably not saying anything golf fans didn't already know, but will stop my usual mad bombing on outsiders. Oh and it does get windy in N Ireland🤯 Going to wait till I see the draw and play on Wednesday evening with an eye on the weather forecast pick some top 50 players, who may look to have an early Thurs/late Friday tee time or vice versa in the "best "of the weather. What can go wrong?🤣
  12. Cheers I was f888ing lucky. Having seen your video, won't be spending my winnings on Soi 6😀
  13. Watching the play off in the Scottish Open golf, got a small bet at 40s on one off the competitors. My nerves are already shredded after the cricket- just want it over😀
  14. Have drunk in their twice, busy both times. It's a Scooters style bar with a more varied playlist- quite enjoyed it.
  15. Glanced at the rules and put a team in. You can I think change your team as much as you want before the first game, which is Friday 9th August.
  16. Chips were fantastic, it was in a Hull waterfront pub, not sure if they did Cod. They did do a lovely ale to wash it down- waddled off suitably stuffed after it.
  17. Pal of mine bought one, he can't run anymore so was looking for alternatives. Similar to Yesitsdakids post he'll watch a 30 minute quiz show and row away. Hard work!

    Without Google I'd be confident you were making it up🤤..bookmakers benefit I'd guess. Had heard about the Norwegian lad turning pro. What is that makes these 160 runner events so unpredictable 🤔

    Wolf Eagle? Have you been at the sauce ? Sounds like a Gladiators contestant.
  20. Beverley racecourse, was a great afternoon 😎😀👍
  21. Just getting ready for the first race. Brexit or not life's good
  22. He was a totally different person off camera. I saw he behind the scenes one afternoon at York races . While all the other journalists were tucking into lunch, he was preparing, a serious guy, very different from the TV charactured persona. I respected his pre TV work as a print journalist but can understand how you formed the impression you did.
