Thank I used a 4 wood to catch the front of the 3rd, then holed a 30 footer. Haven't played the course since about 1973! I played it at the start of the year and wasn’t a fan. Too many blind tee shots. Far to hilly for me as well Edited August 22, 2022 by lichtie23 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far to hilly for me as well I quite like the tee shots from the top of the hills (6th, 8th, 13th) but some of them are just nasty (14th - I don’t think I’ve ever put it in a good position off the tee there). Good if you’re needing a workout though - carry your bag and you’ll burn about 5000 calories going round the full 18! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Some detail emerging of Tiger's meeting with the PGA players last week. Doesn't sound like they are heading down a particularly great route themselves, although there won't be any sports washing at least. https://firepitcollective.com/tigers-secret-meeting/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like LIV except 72 holes and no shotgun start, or Saudi sports washing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Matsuyama was to say he'll stay if the 'Tiger tour' idea is adopted that puts serious pressure on the PGA to cave.

Raidernation Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Regarding first four hole score compared to final round. Back in the 1970’s as a junior I started the first four holes at Thurso ( the one out, two back, three par 3 and the slightly bendy par 5 fourth) Started 7,7,5,7 , broke 80 gross! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should make the 3 unnamed events the Scottish, the PGA at Wentworth and the DP World Tour Final in Dubai and we're well on our way to a decent global elite tour 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll hopefully rotate some of the elevated tournaments away from the US, but I won't hold my breath. I don't think the changes are amazing, but it should hopefully evolve into an all round better product for everyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that the agreement with the DP Tour was only just recently improved but the DP Tour need to be lobbying hard to make sure they get some at least a couple of guaranteed top class fields from this. Since the likes of JP McManus was reported as having money to throw around, I wouldn't be surprised if the Irish Open also gets some sort of boost from this.

Yeah, you'd have think at least the Scottish will be one of them, with Genesis being such a key PGA sponsor. The only problem I can see is that it's the week before the Open, some of the top guys like playing the week before a major, but some don't. It might get moved to a week earlier in future which wouldn't be great tbh. Or they might rotate the Scottish and Irish as the elevated event. Having the Irish when the Open is in England. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
