The Open Championship 2021

[BlackDiamondPar5]

I love the British Open. Yes many of us call it that to avoid ambiguity between other Open events. But this insistence to not only call it The Open but also chastise those whom don't, simply comes off as pretentious 🙂

Well we only invented the whole game after all. Hence we get to set the rules. That’s life. 👍

The British gave us Pierce Brosnan.   That's awesome.

Sean Connery was by far the best - currently watching all the Jimmy Bonds from start to finish.

Well done.   

 

How on earth did I miss that one?  Right there in front of me.

Apologies to everyone. I didn't think starting a thread about The Open would cause so much upset. I didn't realise you were such a delicate bunch. 

 

As for people crying about the Covid restrictions on players. They probably don't affect you, so why are you so butt hurt about it? 

 

There seems to be a lot of upset and/or angry people on the forum at the moment. If anyone need a chat or a virtual hug. DM me. 

Peace bro!

And I thought this was a golf forum. Very sad.

Much like someone would do when attending university, we're doing a preemptive study of tournament. 

 

For pete's sake, the OP started this thread in May, seemingly.

We have protocol around here.  It was not followed.  These are the results.

Let’s not forget Jason isaacs ( Banastre  Tarleton ) and Dick Dastardly .... it’s not widely  known that he was  in fact born in the south of England ( shocker with that name ) near  Brighton (Brighton and hove ).   When he met William Hanna it was on holiday near the Piccadilly.  Ironically neither recall that meeting to this day.

Ha! I’m sure it’s the same everywhere but in NY you definitely remember those drives where the traffic gods are with you and you’re in “the zone”

 

Like I once made it from Manhattan to the Tappan Zee bridge in 18 minutes!

 

Good back story on that one… ; )

[Quasimoto]

I like the Open Championship and Champion Golfer of the Year.

 

To say otherwise is like saying Rahm won the American Open.

I remember I saw it in the movies for a friends birthday party in like 6th grade

Here’s the first confirmed withdrawal I see because of the travel / lodging restrictions.  Kevin Na pulled out and then Cam Davis got the spot. But he can’t leave due to applying for a green card here after marriage.  So he’s out and Martin Kymer is in.

Is it just me or is it phrasing?
