The Open @ Carnoustie (NO POLITICS)

[Singapore Joe]

so far no screaming teeshot monkeys heard

I heard one "Get in the Hole, Justin!". That was on a fairway shot, not a driver. Not clear, though, why Justin should go in the hole. I'm not a great golfer but to my understanding the idea of the game is for the ball to go in the hole, not the player.

Still think -20 is out of the question ? Lol. If the wind down blow they will go -23.

Forgive me for being late to the party, but why is this courses Fairways so browned out? They showed an aerial photo and it looked like a construction site.

[Lagavulin62]

Not political but how long have the apts/condos lined no 9 fairway? Looks very American. Again not trying to be political. Those trees look out of place too.

No rain + recent heatwave = brownout conditions.

22 putts for Kisner. That's pretty good.

Thanks for the info. Hadn't seen the news about wildfires in Europe and I watch the ABC evening news almost daily.

 

Agreed awesome looking golf course just hadn't seen brown like that except at US Open courses that Mike Davis ruins :)

Rough isn't very punishing, course is defenseless now.

[jerebear21]

spieth just needs a couple majors to get his putting stroke back.

[jerebear21]

Rory first tee shot in the bunkers. He just didnt' want it enough.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

to be in the fairway.

[sefus12]

Definitely not much "nasty" out there. I hope the winds can blow at some point. I love the Open but I also love seeing true links golf where the weather and wind are factors.

[bladehunter]

Spieth In my pool. And he looks sharp !

[imakaveli]

I love Carnoustie, brown, defenseless and all, it's gonna be awesome!

[USAF Retired E7]

Wish they'd show more golf

[imakaveli]

Just turned on the coverage and there's Willet. He's been trending but what a story that would be.

 

Some people just barely recoverd from Sergio, that would bee too much for them :D

[jerebear21]

the camera angles keeps getting better every year with the OPEN championship. You can practically see what the pros are seeing on the fairway.

Exactly the Same feeling, was a sad finish that 18 th hole and gust of wind that took Mr. Watson's ball over the green ..

[imakaveli]

Landry was having an ok round, then he started Carnoustie's back nine...

I can’t tell you who I thought he was with that tan. Strange. Thought it was the tv.

[Lagavulin62]

Ha. Hey look sweetie, Jordan’s ball.

[Walter]
