Full respect to Tommy Fleetwood Even though he’s missed the cut, he’s back out in the rain carrying beers by the Postage Stamp

😂😂
I couldn’t stand you when you first started at NLU, but I have grown to truly appreciate you and your outstanding writing. I wish you all the best on your future endeavors. I will be sure to follow you wherever you go. All the best, KVV.
Absolutely baffling hole 🤷🏻♂️

A real shame. I thought KVV slotted in at NLU perfectly
Hello friends. A few weeks ago, the partners at NoLayingUp let me know they wanted to make a change and move forward without me as full-time member of the team. I decided I needed to pursue full-time opportunities, and they of course understood. So we are parting.
All of this is fine. But he went to LIV for money, like they all did. Which is fine
There are a lot of misconceptions about Cam Smith’s LIV contract that need correcting It was reportedly $140m Half was equity in Ripper which is currently at an unknown and unrealisable value So $70 m over 5 years but paid at $14m per year in exchange for playing 14 LIV…
Genuinely, who watches this?
Mrs Brown’s Boys returns for its first series in two years on Friday, August 1st, airing at 9:30pm on BBC One!
I can tell you, I’d be more fulfilled with 20 gazillions dollars in my bank account
Scottie Scheffler just gave one of the best (and deepest) press conference answers ever heard.
It’s a strange one with Scottie Scheffler Everyone has full admiration for his quality But does he endear and connect with fans like Rory, Spieth and Phil? nationalclubgolfer.com/tour/the-open/…
Another Open in the books, my 7th so far and first one at Portrush Very happy to see Scottie move towards history, and visit this unbelievable championship venue for the first time

The crowd rise for Rory. It has been some effort this week and a tournament he won’t forget
Remarkable stuff again on the 1st hole. This place will go absolutely loopy if Rory somehow wins
Magic is happening on 18. No wonder the grandstand is filling up already @johnson_wagner
Justin Leonard shot a better score today than Matt Fitzpatrick
That is easily the loudest cheer I’ve ever heard on a golf course It was a deafening cheer for Rory’s birdie in the 4th bowl green

I can absolutely say that is the first time I have seen a greenside grandstand applaud a tee shot 400 yards away on the same hole That was Rory’s tee shot on the 1st hole here at Portrush
Maybe Lee Westwood and Henrik Stenson should ask LIV if they can enter their scores for General Play
I walked in the media centre at Portrush baffled as to where everyone was Of course…

To win The Open, what score does Rory McIlroy need to reach on Sunday? Surely we can assume Scheffler will be at least 15 under, so McIlroy needs to shoot 12 under in 36 holes, I reckon
😂😂
He’ll forget about it when he wins the next LIV rave at Ibiza
