McIlroy scrapes a par - wankfest
They’re are few over-hyped sportsmen in world as McIlroy. I don’t get it.
-
Apparently Gulf Harbour golf club is closing. Had a lot of fun playing there circa 2000.
It was a lovely golf course to play. I used to enjoy Formosa as well, but that's gone too
-
@MajorPom yep, gonna be tough for them to make the cut.
-
Fox with the equal 2nd best round to make the cut
-
@mariner4life yep looked tough out there.
-
Yeah Harman's round really stands out

He had an amazing bit of luck chipping from the rough. Hit the flag pole and dropped within a few feet.
Previous hole missed a birdie from ~ five feet.

@canefan he has a deal with Hooters US, so no surprises he visits them in the UK
I just thought it was because he likes buffalo wings
-
@mariner4life and now he sits 5 clear on -12 after 3 rounds.
Rahm, in 3rd sits 6 back on -6 after shooting 8 under, so he will be a threat if he can get going again, some quality behind Rahm too with Day, Fleetwood and Hovland on -5.
Fox had -2 to sit at +1 and move up into a T41st
-
Steady rain for the final day, but there appears to be very little wind. It should make it easier to keep balls in the fairway and the greens. Comms reckon the weather will pack in by the time the leaders start. So it might make things interesting
-
Harmon cruises to victory witha 1 under final round.
Fox T52 after a 3 over final round.

Actually it's not gone. Formosa is still operating and whilst a whole lot better than it was 10 years ago, its still a shadow of its former prime time self.
Both courses turned up around the same time from memory and have struggled through the majority of their life span.
Gulf Harbours had a number of owners and the current one is a property developer who purchased GHCC a couple of years back with only one real plan, and it doesn't include golf. I've never been particularly fond of the track but still a real shame to lose it.

Fizzer. Good on Harman, he made it very boring. But that was one very forgettable Open.
Sure was eh. I was pumped for it and watched a fair bit but left a bit disappointed.
Not my dad though, who had a sweat $10 on Harman at $126. The jammy bugger!
