I managed top 80 overall for the tournament in Rd 1, it has been a long time since I've had a result anywhere close to that. I left 8 pts on the bench too - if I had of fielded Henley over Harman I would have been 2nd. Nice start, but I know it probably won't last.

Tough course, only 17 players under par.

Can see you forging ahead in the points this week if you can manage to field 4 into round 3, I think I'll be lucky if I can field 2 the way my 'stars' are going LOL. Gee it'd be nice to able to watch it!

Had Finau as a cheeky outright, thinking this might be okay after sitting on PAR after day one.

Ends up +10 over PAR to miss the cut. No Hovland, no McIlroy, no DeChambeau either. :LOL:

First time watching and betting on a major and it's been fun, but man, that course is brutal with how extreme the conditions have been.

Wind's up again for the final round of the Open, hope the rain holds off, especially the torrential stuff that makes the Camera lenses all wet and blurry :LOL: Well done to Ironhawk for having a belter of an Open in our Fantasy league, can't believe you didn't take Lowry off for Scott's score in the third round mate, rookie mistake! :LOL:

Yeah, fielded Harman over Scott in R3, was tossing up between the two which I do field, went the wrong option. Still doing OK, especially compared to most in our league, so can't complain.

You're smashing it in the Open, I predict you might even take the lead after Fedex Cup bonus points are tabulated.
Should be an interesting conclusion to the season with all of us being much closer together in points after this tournament.

I didn't even realise there is fantasy golf. Can you (or anyone else) point me in the direction of what type of fantasy golf you are playing?

Keen to give it a look as I've just recently gotten into golf and any other fantasy game that isn't SC is appealing.

Not a chance of top spot with Schauffele winning, but I'll catch up to yourself a bit. I was strongly considering Xander here too, not surprised he won, he has the right sort of game for the conditions.

104 points for the week for me. I've had better individual rounds!!!

Schauffele winning 2 majors for the year wasn't on my bingo card. For all the Scheffler is a level above, history will view it otherwise

3 putt a 6 footer and that was his day over, terrible really from the guy thats universally considered the best in the world.
I reckon it was a mistake for him not to play in the Scottish Open, would've been good practice for the Open getting used to those style greens and that gnarly rough...and the weather.
