“Incensed” that through sheer arrogance they bowled first on a road again, then when they couldn’t bowl India out wanted to take their bat and ball to go home. Pea hearts.
Quite the contrast to The Open last week. “Oh, you roasted one 30 yards over the flag? Here is a free drop, just place it next to the green in the nice grass”. Chips it to a foot, broadcast - “what a magnificent up and down” ☠️🤮
One of these clubs is naming teams with up to 15 premiership players in their 22, has no injuries, still can’t score and just lost to a basketcase. Again. The other has been completely irrelevant for 20 years and has about 9 fit players on their list. Sack him.
The coverage for Oliver’s 200th tonight pretty well sums up modern footy media. All more than happy to spread rumours, race for a story and sink the boots in when he’s down… absolute donuts this week. One of the best and most decorated players of the last decade. ❤️
Saying this yesterday, then going out in the first group today and playing in 4hrs50mins is a tough scene. A 68 and two 71s with no one in front of you. Thanks but no thanks. You’re all to blame.
“Felt like we were on the course golf course for about 12 hours.” Marc Leishman was frustrated by slow play at the Open, saying it’s difficult to adjust when he’s used to the quicker rounds on LIV.
Shameless Open Championship photo dump. Golf trip to Melbourne? Take the time to say hello. Making sure @jamierkennedy knows we’re here.
Watching the Open Championship and dreaming of some authentic Links golf? It’s not as far away as you might think. A 🧵… @mikeclaytongolf @cdpgolf1 @AusGolfPassport
Might as well have turned around and kicked them over… and reviews it. I love Uz, but this is truly putrid. Batsmen are the worst.
An absolute plumb ball goes up for review! OUT!! #WIvAUS #FullAhEnergy
Imagine being paired with a bloke on a weekend that did this. A full minute to knock in a four footer. Truly embarrassing.
New swing thought is thinking about this mystery lady we found a photo of at the original Port Fairy Links. Just put the carry bag down, lean back and throw the house at it. #Launch
Wind from the north at Port Fairy = VERY important to be below the hole… @mikeclaytongolf @AusGolfPassport
Criticising the pace of play when you’re a player in the tournament is quite a vibe. Every pro golfer is part of the problem.
"I think we played a two-ball in like six hours. That's just a little ridiculous." Nelly Korda was one of several players to criticize the course setup and pace of play at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. 🗣️
The lost and found basket in the Pro Shop been on a good golf trip…
There is a Melbourne fan somewhere that’s been off the grid for 3 years and missed absolutely nothing. Innaccurate, stubborn, stupid and carried by the captain.
I for one, endorse the Ryder Cup Singles Preview tomorrow, presented by the hottest of hot takes and @NoLayingUp @DJPie @TronCarterNLU
Another Canadian winter Luke Elvy COULD have spent in the Richie Benaud School of Commentary, where “less is more”…. But didn’t.
