The Open Championship 2021

If you had to pick a guy in the field OWGR 90 or higher to make the cut, who is your guy?

 

Give me a guy who has shown some form or a reason why you think he will make the cut. I'm in a pool where that slot is all about making the cut. I dont need clueless gut pick like Haotong Li type who is playing worst golf in the field.

maybe so, but I can say the same about 200 golfers off the top of my head. 

That would be interesting…..I would like to see you do that.

Never mind the match play….name 200 players that won four times in a year including a major.

Aaron Rai has a great move…ranked 100-120 if memory serves

Flat backswing and wonderful example of the modern impact position and balance…

 

His headcover rocks btw

Or miss a 4 ft putt, same with Morikawa.  If they could putt they could win a ton of majors, imo.  

Morikawa already has won one and has been on the tour less than 2 years. Lets give him some time. Especially at the majors held on West Coast courses

Haven't heard of him but I see he followed up 3 MC with 3 good showings. I'm kind of leaning Ryan Fox but it is rough 90 plus in the world to get a guy to make a cut. Henrik Stenson maybe?

So now the British media are even asking Darren Clarke about the Bryson-Brooks thing. They won't let this die. They think picking this scab will "help" them in the upcoming Ryder Cup exhibition matches, which they actually think still matter.

I'm no fan of the British media, and I like Brooks, but this ridiculous nonsense is entirely on those two. It's not funny, it's just boring tbh. 

 

And that's the worst crime in my book. Being boring.

Anyone think Fleetwood can pull it off this time? 2nd place last time (2019) and he seems to be warming up with -20 over the last 8 rounds at the Irish and Scottish Opens…

You asked who I'd pick. I gave you an answer. I didn't ask you who you'd pick, or wouldn't pick, and why.

I need some real reasoning behind it. I bet you didn't even realize how much he has lost his game. If you did pick him and he made the cut id bet you would be the only one in the pool. I asked to see if someone could point me to somebody with some form that I have overlooked. I'm not putting real money in a pool on Li.

For American-based viewers, did I see that correctly and they are shunting early coverage onto frickin Peacock? Online I see peacock is supposed an online/featured group alternative, but on GC what they flashed up looked like only peacock early.

 

It's bad enough they do that with the Premier League, but FFS can they not leave the best tournament of the year to GC and NBC?

Ha! I know. I think I first joined WRX in, like 2010 or something. And the exact same discussions/arguments were going on about The Open vs. The British Open. Its a time honored tradition. 

 

On the bright side, the argument  generally mostly disappears as soon as the first group tees off  (the argument is sort of the discussion board equivalent of the players doing their preparations). But once golf starts, discussions turn to golf.

Thank goodness!  🙏🏼 😜

'Give me you pic for who is 90+ on OWGR that you think will make the cut.'

*Gives Pick*

'I don't like that pick. Pick someone that I can agree with.'

Brooks and Bryson are American and your not. I believe based on the  brilliant reasoning you have expressed in this thread, that makes your opinion of them… IRRELEVANT! 😂
