Aberdeen Standard Investments has been rebranded as ABRDN. 

 

Bizarre name; I preferred the original - Aberdeen Asset Management, Martin retired and they changed the name to the stupid short one.

It's not for the spectators. They are letting 32000 spectators a day in for the Open but putting all these extra restrictions on the players.  It doesn't really make sense.  

 

Kind of does. The players are in a bubble to not have to quarantine on entry to the country. I am flying back to Scotland on July 30 and having to quarantine for 10 days - going to be great fun!

With demand for tickets expected to spike, the R&A has created a ballot system for the hopeful dreamers wanting to attend the 150th Open. It was introduced just for this occasion and in the interest of fairness, according to the governing body.

“The ticket ballot gives as many fans as possible the chance to be part of this fantastic Championship and make it an occasion to remember,” said R&A Chief Executive Martin Slumbers.

 

#150 is next year now. That refers to next years British Open/The Open/ Open Championship..

Changes are being made to the way NBC/Golf Channel is broadcasting the Open Championship this week due to ongoing C19 travel restrictions. Most of the broadcast is being done remotely from CT and NBC/GC will be using the R&A global broadcast feed instead of what NBC/GC produce on their own. Good read.

Schauffele played solid at the Scottish Open.

 

So I expect him to have a great chance to win this week.

Agree. I know lots are down on him. But I just have a gut feeling he gets a major very soon.

If by that you mean not a British Empire website under Her Britannic Majesty of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and Her Protectorates and Dominions, then yes, a United States website. 

This kinda reminds me of the first time I met a South American, telling them that "I'm from America," and watching them go ballistic.

Plenty of current media references to the "British Open"--- for which I'm really looking forward to. 

Went to the Doctor last week and he asked me if I was looking forward to the "British Open"... so if that's what the Doctor calls it, then I guess I'm in good company 🙂

bill rogers?

Read furthering Rogers. Injuries and burn out prevented a long career  He won four times in 81 plus your Suntory Match Play. He was definitely not a Curtis/Hamilton variety winner.

Zach Johnson & Louis de Jager withdraw from The Open after positive Covid-19 tests & Ryan Moore is out with a back injury.

 

They have been replaced by Dylan Frittelli, Sam Horsfield & Adam Long.

Bill Rogers wasn't long enough off the tee to have a longer career (such as Palmer, Nicklaus or Watson).  But he had great touch and was effective over a shorter time span.

He was 9 yards below tour average.  Similar to Kuchar, Poulter,Na, Kisner type of players.  Can they compete every week on some courses? No. But in the early 80’s before the courses started lengthening he had plenty of game and enough length to play. A couple guys named O’Meara and Strange did well with comparable length.  
Rogers burned out and was effectively done before age 35.

Who got Ryan Moore’s spot ?     He earned a spot then withdrew as soon as the scoring was over.    He wasn’t swinging like he was injured yesterday.  😂

These are all American websites, therefore irrelevant. We’ve discussed this.

What did he do?

He withdrew after testing positive.  I'm not sure that qualifies as moron status.

 

Vaccinated people are testing positive from time to time.  They don't show symptoms, or show minimal symptoms, but they do test positive.

Ah, I saw the WD after the positive test. 

 

I didn't know if the post was referring to him partying like hell before getting covid or something.

I'm beginning to think this event is gearing up for something pretty bad, if the behavior yesterday is any indication of the public mindset. No I don't think golf fans over there are much different, or any different at all, from soccer fans.

 

 

 

 

Yeah, we are all the same.
