RushCanuck Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 We had a successful 2015 US Open golf thread, so here goes with a British Open thread. Please post British Open comments here if you are following the tournament.It could be a birdie fest, I hear. Rickie and Jordan go in after winning on Sunday. Maybe some underdog like a Ben Curtis type will win... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 This is my second favorite major, after the Masters but before the US Open. Wondering how it stacks up for others. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushCanuck Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 US Open is first for me, then British Open second. PGA is always sad for me as it's the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theredtamasrule Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) Always have loved The Open. Doesn't get any better than at St. Andrews but I have to say that Muirfield is my personal fav of the rotation courses. Wind really makes the Old Course a stiff test (I like it when, as the caddies say, it takes three damn good shots to get home in 2). Calling Fowler out right now. edit to add: Masters, Open, US Open and PGA. Edited July 14, 2015 by theredtamasrule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 This is my second favorite major, after the Masters but before the US Open. Wondering how it stacks up for others.Tough one for me. The Masters is always first and I really think between the two Opens it matters the venue each year as to which I prefer. The PGA will always be the redheaded stepchild (am I still allowed to say that? :sigh: )in my view... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RushCanuck Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 I put Spieth as a tag on this topic because can he win and keep the slam going is The big question. Too bad the defending champ hurt his ankle playing soccer and is on the sidelines. D'oh! Narps, Tiger and Jason Day tee off 4:55 am our time (ET) on Thursday.

alphseeker Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 the big difference that may affect Speith is the possible Jet Lag - 6 hour time difference and he left today - many others have already been there a week. But then of course he's only 21 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RushCanuck Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 8 hours and counting.... :dweez:Yup, I will be going to bed soon so I can be awake for 4 am. just watching some Golf Channel and they are saying Friday's weather could be a challenge.No predictions from me, I'm content to watch and see who plays the best and gets a lucky break here and there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 The poll this time should be, who will have the lower score, Tiger or Tom Watson? Here's hoping Watson can play all four days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't a clue on this one and if there is weather and it effects one half of the draw and not the other, you know how that goes. I would love to see Watson play well and of course I don't mean Baby... :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
