Curious Ryder Cup storyline.... In the last 7 Ryder Cups, @RyderCupEurope has seen average year-on-year turnover of 6 players (half the team). What Ben lists below is LIKELY to be the team (right now_ and would see just one change from 2023 (swapping Hojgaards). Is it a sign…

The abuse Scheffler was getting on the front nine yesterday was pathetic - and pretty uncomfortable. Wrote about what I heard following him around:
ICYMI We followed Scottie Scheffler for every hole around Royal Portrush on Sunday - and at times the atmosphere was pretty ugly. It was only after a big moment out on the Dunluce Links that the tide finally started to turn... ✍️@_benparsons bunkered.co.uk/golf-news/scot…
It's that time again when delirium takes over and I write precisely what is on my mind with not a huge amount of filter. Presenting, for @bunkeredgolf, 33 random thoughts as the sun sets on The 153rd Open. bunkered.co.uk/golf-news/the-…
Over and out from the bunkered team at Royal Portrush. To everybody who has read, listened to, watched, or engaged with our content over the last week, a huge thanks. We don’t take it for granted! These are the good days. ⛳️
What a week. Royal Portrush is just incredible and glad it got another incredible champion. Going to be a long 264 days.
I walked every hole with Scottie Scheffler today and the feeling on the course was very strange at times. Eventually, though, the genius got the acclaim he deserved at Royal Portrush. For @bunkeredgolf: bunkered.co.uk/golf-news/scot…
Ladies and gentlemen, the new 'Champion Golfer of the Year' and now a four-time major winner... SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER! He is only a US Open away from completing the career grand slam.
The 18th grandstand already filling up for what should be a Scheffler procession later on. It’s warm here with only a breath of wind. Would be very surprising if he doesn’t break 70.
Scottie Scheffler is closing in on his first Claret Jug - but can anyone stop him? ✍️@_benparsons on the absurd moment that left the world No.1 on the brink at Portrush👇 bunkered.co.uk/golf-news/scot…
Matt Fitzpatrick's reaction said it all afterwards. On Scottie Scheffler, and the absurd moment that left him on the brink of a first Claret Jug. For @bunkeredgolf: bunkered.co.uk/golf-news/scot…
Xander Schauffele was NOT happy after his round of 66 at The Open... 😬 Story 👇 bunkered.co.uk/golf-news/the-…
Only one man in history has done the Scottish Open-Open double. Chris Gotterup is three back. 👀
Jon Rahm on the six-hour rounds this week: "It's a bit of an adjustment after playing in LIV because we absolutely fly. The one thing we do, I feel like every round is less than four and a half hours unless the weather conditions are crazy. "
Wyndham Clark declined to speak to reporters here after shooting a 66 to move inside the top-ten. I wonder why.
