And then blades it over the green. 🤮

He's so fun to watch. He plays even remotely decent day 1 and he's in the lead of this thing.

Oosty should be able to hold on but he's starting to spray it all over the place.

Give Rahm credit, those putts on 17 & 18 were incredible

Yes. He has quite the collection of clutch putts on his resume so far.

That tournament was there for the taking. Rory was in a great spot and just sort of crumbled in crunch time.

I am focusing on Brooks and Rahm. Not always together, but at least 1.

Also some very good value out there. JT under 10k is a steal even with bad form. He is the kind of guy who can win out of nowhere.


Fwiw, i pay for rotogrinders and they have Ancer as 1 of the top $/projected points.

Another sneaky name for the low $ guys is Lucas Herbert. He is in good form. Euro tour guys tend to fill the top 20-40 finishing positions more frequently than the americans simply due to comfortability on these style of courses and this weather (if bad weather pops up).

Also if i remember correctly there is a secondary cut in this event. I think 2 day cut is top 80 and ties and the secondary cut after round 3 goes to top 45 and ties.

Also, if you're feeling brave Alex Noren has a good record the last 2 or 3 (maybe 4?) Opens.

I feel like the crappier the weather, the better Reed, Westwood and Louis play.

No doubt. Reed is a grinder. Louis is in great form. Westwood not in as good of form as he was early in the season, but i think emotionally he will get a giant boost from the crowds similar to Darren Clarke did when he won his Open.

If i had to pick someone who emotionally i want to win, it'd absolutely be Westwood in front of English crowds. He's such a good dude.

Well....good call on Louis.

Kirk did well today also.


Most of my lineups are middle of the pack. I did 25 entries in various tournaments. Only cashing in a handful of them so far.

Louis and Rahm were good choices. The others were not.
