The Moonster Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Just proves how much you need the mentality right to see out a major. Been a great final day though. Hope JT does it, nothing against Zalatoris other than I think his name sounds like a dinosaur but I love JT. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar tale for Fitzpatrick, after 3 rounds in the 60s, level par in the final round would have won it. And of course the bold Rory who as it turns out was one shot out of a play off standing on the 5th tee today. I'm weary of these final round take everything on where he finishes top 10 without ever threatening to win.

peasy23 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Well he's in my fantasy golf team so I'm expecting the latter. Mine too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Yeah. I think you posted earlier about this but there must be about 10 players who will look back at this and think they could've won it. Justin Thomas was the only player in the last 5 groups to shoot under par, everybody else went backwards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Based on form, Thomas must be strong favourite here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dip for that drive on 18th took his head down as far as his navel. It's bad enough to see on a club golfer, but just horrible to watch on a tour pro. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Worth mentioning that Thomas came through the 'wrong' side of the draw as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I know players aren't under any obligation to speak to the press, but it doesn't look good for the likes of McIlroy who fecked straight off on Saturday and Sunday, when Mito Pereira fronted up and did every interview he was asked for after letting the tourney slip out his grasp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, we've all hit that very swing at some stage, and probably with great frequency, but at worst that's while while sitting on a good score during the monthly medal, not needing par down the last to win a major. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Angelo Barksdale Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 **Fantasy Golf League Week 20** JT in ET It's been a while lads, but we're back. And so is Justin Thomas who wins his 2nd Wanamaker Trophy, named of course after the actress Zöe. Standings A bit of movement in the standings as popular selections such as Scheffler and Morikawa have had quiet months, with Will Zalatoris saving a few blushes. Top man has been @Distant Doonhamer, who top scored at the USPGA and has rocketed himself into title contention.

A tough but unremarkable layout in a classic American style by Perry Maxwell, it's stock has fallen in recent times, but 5 of the world's top 10 are due here this week. The DP World Tour is in the Netherlands at Bernardus. Designed by Kyle Phillips of Kingsbarns and Dundonald fame, now firmly rated in the world's top 100 and Europe's top 50, this is a banger of a heathland course heavily influenced by the design greats of Colt and Braid. Big Bernd Weisberger leads the field here. P&B Matchplay We'll have round 3 of the Matchplay group stages this week, which might encourage me to get the league updated a bit more promptly next time round.

Yes there is and also a chipping and putting practice area but it's been a few years since I last played there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
