printer Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 He was regularly hitting 400+ yard drives at a practice range in America this month. The tee area was 30 yards into a 298 yard range, and it had a 90 foot net at the end, he cleared both easily, and the ball ended up on a road He was also hitting 370+ with a three wood. Terrifying to think he could easily put in three on the 618 yard, par 5, 9th hole He's not even a big guy. Same with Rickie Fowler - saw him for the first time today and he is quite small and slim looking, but knocks the ball right out there. Just shows it's all about timing and technique. I'm sure I'll remember that next time I'm on the course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm marshaling on hole 18. Just hope we get a few games going that far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Anyone been up know what traffic is like? I drove past on the way to Aberdeen on Monday and there were delays both ways. Think we're going to the Stirling P&R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paris Hilltoon Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Just been offered tickets for Friday and I don't think I can get the day off. Gutted! I'd chance pulling a sick day, but knowing my luck I'd be spotted on the TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubbs33 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Went yesterday using Stirling. Park and ride was brilliant, loads of buses at either end. As soon as you're through security you're on a bus and away within a couple of minutes, same coming home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paris Hilltoon Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I'd take the tickets off your hands! Ha, unfortunately they have found a new home. Had I been able to go, it would have been pretty ridiculous getting there. I would have needed to collect them in Auchterarder, then drive back to Perth to get on the park and ride. You can't just stroll up with your tickets, even if you're a local resident. If you live in Auchterarder, you need to get a shuttle bus up from the high street. Even then, if you can't prove you're a resident, they won't take you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson has already said that his 4 players sitting out the morning will definitely be playing in the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musketeer Gripweed Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I am old enough to remember Tom Watson when he probably the best player around. He was a gentleman then, and he is gentleman now. A small part of me wants him to win this. I also have taken a holiday tomorrow, so bed for me now.

IrishBhoy Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Buzzing for Sunday now. Heading up on the train from Central. Just going on my lonesome as none of my friends got Sunday tickets in the ballot. Does any one know what time the singles start on Sunday assuming it all goes to schedule?
