    See my post, and reply to it, above.

    Sky Main Event working perfectly

    Can't believe Mcilroy just did that!!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,330 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22


    thats some par save by rory on the 8th/17th



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,532 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Mental stuff, it'll happen a lot more but the recovery won't be so good



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,627 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Jesus, I know very little about golf, and never play it - but that is one nightmarish course 😱

    10 eagles vs 74 double bogeys yesterday says a lot!



  • Administrators Posts: 54,168 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    Lads can someone explain the graphic in the bottom right to me on Sky? I am confused. This feels like a stupid question.

    Usually the right hand number is the last hole they've completed, but it says 8 for Rory and he's on the 18th, it says 6 for DeChambeau and he just teed off on the 8th?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,627 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Rory started on 10, so he's played 8 holes so far



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,532 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Players starting on 1st and 10th, the little asterisk will indicate a 10th tee start. So 8 holes played, not necessarily the hole number. Your interpretation will be correct tomorrow

    that run off is nuts



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,905 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    Of all the golfers I'd like to win this, Hatton would be very near the bottom of the list. He's playing worryingly well but he'll surely blow up at some stage.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,532 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Well he almost dunked one for eagle, literally have to repair the hole. Ball hit flag then spun bout 20 yards back into the bunker



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,532 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    He then proceeded to bogey that and the next 2.

    Poor shots by all of Rorys group on 5th (their 14th)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,757 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Big par for Rory there, 7s for Scheffler and Xander..

    Is it me or does scottie look a bit disinterested?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,330 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22


    bryson finishes with a birdie, 1 off the lead. has been in some form in majors this year.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,757 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Feel like Sky are massively under playing the cut line with half the field yet to play. It easily hits +5 and +6 is in with a shout.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,813 ✭✭✭CMOTDibbler


    Frustrated would be the word I'd use. Haven't seen him this aggravated in, well forever.



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,139 ✭✭✭cosatron


    Great course set up today. A par feels like a birdie on some holes.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,813 ✭✭✭CMOTDibbler


    Lots of fun around the greens. I reckon I'd be double figures on each hole; three shots, seven putts/chips. 🤣

    That's if I'm lucky.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,813 ✭✭✭CMOTDibbler


    Pendrith came a cropper on the 9th. Bunker shot ran off the other side. Chip didn't climb high enough and ran back to his feet. Went with the putter and it barely clung on. Some wag in the crowd called out "Run, Run and mark that". 🤣

    This Aberg kid looks like he is going to be a top golfer. Seems to have everything in his game, if he has the temperament, he’s going to win a lot.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,836 ✭✭✭Trampas


    Only 60 and ties make the cut



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,886 ✭✭✭Barnaboy


    Poor Seamus Power is having a mare. Two doubles on the bounce. He will be having the weekend off.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,169 ✭✭✭downthemiddle




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,627 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Jesus, tuned out for a few hours - what's happened to the commentary?? DeChambeau shooting the breeze with some half-assed "comedian"???



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    with surgical gloves on when holding that old club, what a dick



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,836 ✭✭✭Trampas




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,532 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Mckibbon with a lovely long birdie on 18 to likely make weekend

    Pity they're teeing off so late.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,886 ✭✭✭Barnaboy


    Sounds mean but I'm glad Tiger missed the cut. The guy is a legend. But he can barely bend over. He is such an amazing competitor but do we need to see every single shot?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,163 ✭✭✭✭Mantis Toboggan


    Fair play to McKibbin making the cut, bonus territory now.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,813 ✭✭✭CMOTDibbler


    Some big names (aside from Tiger) missing the cut: Victor Hovland, Rickie Fowler, JT, DJ (although he hasn't been great lately), Jason Day, Will Zalatoris, Justin Rose, Max Homa and Robert McIntyre. Some of those with much higher scores than Tiger.

    Scottie Scheffler, Matt FitzPatrick and Brooks Koepka barely made it.

    Edit: Just saw that Frankie Molinari made the cut courtesy of an ace on the 9th (his 18th).

    not many birdies from the early starters. probably a day for hanging tough and staying in the mix for Sunday



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,813 ✭✭✭CMOTDibbler


    Yeah, only four under par for today out there as it stands. Matt FitzPatrick is +9 after 15, Frankie Molinari not far behind him at +7. Some carnage.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,848 ✭✭✭Panrich


    So Tom McKibbon will have either Koepka or Scheffler keeping him company tomorrow.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,749 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    that Morikawa score could look good in a few hours time



  • Registered Users Posts: 165 ✭✭Lip Out


    Coverage tonight is brutal.

    Im going to break my television.

    Rolex hour, can't show where a wedge shot finished, can't show any of Rory's shots.

    WTF are they doing!!

    If the host broadcaster isn't fully up and running, you can't have your bogus hour!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,293 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Ya, that hour was garbage. Poor coverage, poor sound.

    Rory's moved to -4 after a birdie on 3. Great up and down from the bunker.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,293 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Aberg has had a couple of lucky breaks on his drives for the past 2 holes.

    Just missed the bunker and horrible desert grass on 2. And he's gotten relief on 3 after going over by the grandstand, which gave him a way better lie than he would otherwise have had. Still didn't play the next shot well though.

    But Aberg's made a birdie despite this. Just about fell into the hole at the death, lucky ######!

    And Bryson missed his gimme putt for birdie. No way you would have said that's how it would have work out after both players had played 2 shots each on that hole. Aberg played 2 poor shots and gets birdie. Bryson plays 2 excellent shots and gets par.



  • Registered Users Posts: 147 ✭✭Kincora2017


    Do you mind explaining what was happening? They only show golfers wearing Rolex’s for an hour or something stupid like that?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,422 ✭✭✭facehugger99




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,532 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    It's an ad free hour of coverage, but they spend time going through full leaderboard and doing studio crap. Was also issues with American broadcaster, no crowd sound or shot graphics appearing.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,293 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Aberg again gets lucky with his drive on 4, stopping just short of the bunker. While Bryson just trickled into it with his drive.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,293 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    It's just a daft name to show an hour and get sponsorship money from Rolex. There was very little golf shown, and when a shot was played, it often didn't show where the ball landed. There was very little sound from out on the course as well.

    The coverage has been poor in general. What happened to Rory after he went into the bunker on the par 5 5th? Did I miss something? The next shot I seen him play was his tee shot on 6.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,163 ✭✭✭✭Mantis Toboggan


    Aberg reminds me of Mcllroy 13ish years ago

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭intellectual dosser


    This coverage is bonkers.

    See the player hitting the shot but not where it lands. They also just showed a Tyrell Hatton shot land but not Hatton hitting the shot.


    Audio not matching visuals. Shot tracers not working. It’s very poor.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,293 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    That was a bad bogey to concede by Rory.
