@Chris-B spotters on a course like that is essential, I mean Pro-V 1s at c $27 a sleeve 😄

Someone was selling a variety of new balls at the local Nelson auction house, recently - they were going at a rate of a dollar a ball. So, I have a new arsenal - they're a bit mismatched, but that don't confront me none.

Aside from that, I suspect quite often I don't want to find my ball!

@Cyclops I saw him get interviewed after 2nd or 3rd round of this tournament.
He said he has lost fear, or was more relaxed, so was prepared to take the slightly riskier shots after the first win.
Also remember seeing him say after the first one he was relaxed as a sportsman of his age to know he could play in USA for a couple of years pretty well set him up.

Gee, why didn't anyone post that earlier?

Foxy T19 is still pretty awesome

Think this view is better, shows the distance of it. Unreal moment for him.

No worries Dan ... Just feeling ignored

Heard him say winning his first the other week has made him relax. Paraphrasing, but he's not afraid of hitting a bad shot any more, because the pressure has gone.

Huge Fleetwood choke, sadly. 2 up with 3 to play and nerves destroyed his game. Awful watching.

Keegan Bradley takes it with a birdie / bogey swing on the last.

Maaaassive choke. Really wanted him to win too.

Alker also done in the final stretch by Miguel Jimenez on the champions tour who birdied his last two holes and forced a playoff. Alker then continued to struggle on 18 as he has all week. Bugger

Yeah devastating for Tommy. Such a deflating finish.

Keegan throws a massive spanner into the Ryder Cup though. Clearly one of the form 12 American players, so does he pick himself? Does he stand down as Captain? Surely the latter as the idea of a playing captain is both very entertaining and very outdated...

He will likely qualify as one of the automatic picks now anyway as I think since he won this recent event it puts him up there amongst the top six now.
