    Lowry worth betting a tenner on for E/W ?

    I'm a bit of a casual fan so betting with more heart than head .


    Can any recall seeing a particular golf video on YouTube ?

    It's two American old lads on some celebrity golf classic. One of them is taunting the other fella that he can't make a extremely difficult shot.

    The other lad says "be my guest" to the first lad. Sure enough the loud mouth old fella pulls off an unbelievable putt.
    One of the best I've ever seen.

    I can't find the clip on YouTube at all. Not sure if the names which makes its difficult.


    Does this ring any bells to anybody ?

    You can never underestimate the importance of par putts. Shane had a 12 footer at the first hole and sank it. Spieth made at least three good par saves including a 12 footer and a 15 footer. Without those momentum is lost.

    yeah when I miss a par putt on the first I could end up 30 over par! real confidence killer!

    Just in after playing jimmy brutal trials. Wtf happened els :( feel so bad for him but he looks to have come back well.

    Top of the leaderboard looks ominous though.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 19,266 Mod ✭✭✭✭slave1


    Genuinely in shock at that Els putting collapse


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,388 ✭✭✭✭Jayop


    Day is taking the piss now. -6 though 10.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,067 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    Class leaderboard so far - only one gone is Fowler. As in, he is gone gone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Shane making some great putts.

    Is it just me or are they showing very little of Lowry considering his position?

    There is plenty of players on the course. Trying to cover everyone is difficult


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,378 ✭✭✭HighLine


    Really hope Jason AllDay is not in contention come Sunday evening.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,816 ✭✭✭Baggy Trousers


    Spieth was a machine earlier. Great temperament.

    But it seems there are some players they like to show a lot, regardless of how well or badly they are doing.

    Sorry lads for the spoiler. I hadn't realised the scoreboard was ahead of the Sky coverage. I'm bloody watching it here too.

    I swear to god it had him at -6 on there a few minutes ago. Bah, makes me look even more of a pleb than usual.

    Nah! These things happen. Flashscore have only sorted out Ernie's 10 on the first.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Brilliant from Shane. I can honestly say o didn't expect this from him given his form


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 891 ✭✭✭septictank


    -5 now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,388 ✭✭✭✭Jayop


    Yep and the upshot is we're see each of his shots now too. He really is hitting it beautifully.

    Brilliant! That should get the cameras on him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Superb front 9 from Lowry. Next 3 holes are key


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,067 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    Funny how some of the drives look so intimidating, but then so open at landing zone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,084 ✭✭✭✭Seve OB


    How did pouter qualify?

    He was in the top 10 last year so that gets him in. Only major of the year he has qualified for currently.

    Rory's going along nicely here too. Pretty steady round at -2.

    Nice shot in from him there. Should go to -2 now.

    Has his haters, but I like the guy


  • Registered Users Posts: 538 ✭✭✭Shakey_jake


    So proud of Shane right now!!

    Come on Ireland!

    Out in -2 with a missed 6ft par put early on, nice and steady. I bet he would take another -2 for the back 9........ Or my apologies, I should really have said the second 9 :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Superb front 9 from Lowry. Next 3 holes are key

    He's putted up close to the hole on 10, so looks like one of the 3 is safely out of the way. C'mon lad!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,067 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    that is incredible shot from pines from Day - they are amazing golfers - just in case anyone thinks that is normal :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,500 ✭✭✭Drexel


    Not goina be able to watch any of this. No sports channels or internet atm. Gutted. Shaping up to be a good one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    What a stinger from Lowry on 11
