The Open is my favorite major to watch, especially getting up in the middle of the night and just anticipating chaos. Since I shouldn’t be texting friends at 4am, just going to post thoughts here. I think billet driving irons off the tee are my favorite shot to watch on tv.

4a? You'd be three hours late in my world 🤣 I don't wake for it, specifically, as early as I used to but I do enjoy having it on with my coffee as well as it being over early on the weekend.

Who will take home the Claret Jug?

Louis! Or Westwood would be awesome!

tgleex should I make a last minutes investment? 😜

tgleex Louis Louis had been my Vegas sleeper odds pick for literally 6 years…. I love Louis but he’s the equivalent of fools gold from a betting perspective. He’s come so close time and again (I know he’s won before)I keep telling myself to put money on him, then I come to realize that Vegas may have him down perfectly, and that I’m the sucker, in that he’s close enough to win, but not yet a bonafide closer.

Jaybananapantsarthur 4a? You'd be three hours late in my world 🤣 Got me there 🤣. But then again I don’t sleep until 2 anyways, so I’ll catch some before my power nap heh heh.

Love the British Open... Vincent...hard to bet against Koepka. All he does is play well in Majors. Rahm is on top of his game. But I am pulling for Paul Casey or Westwood.

I could see Poulter doing it this week. But after my Homa pick at Torrey, I could also see him finishing DFL

I think the key is looking for people who are pop stroke putters. Especially Sunday afternoon with nerves, need someone who will putt a strong roll on the ball, because wind, undulation and nerves make for a nasty combo when you need to make putts.

Changed the entire round for him. Just watching a replay now after watching his first couple of holes live.

4 perfect swings...and then that miss. Seemed to get on his head and he never recovered.

Golf is hard!...lol.

Eddie

Don't dislike Rickie, just not digging the CHP cartoon central look. But shit I don't care.
