OT: Golf Thread

[CanadianFlyer88]

Someone help me find the money totals. Or at least the total for missing the cut.

$10K for missing the cut at the US Open.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I knew the totals I was looking at last night were wrong, which is why I stopped and waited until this morning. Everyone check their totals in a few minutes once I finish and make sure I caught them all according to this list.

U.S. Open Earnings

Anyone in the Lancaster area want to meet up and golf on Saturday? All my friends are on vacation and I'd like to go. I'd prefer to head out around 11 or 12.

Looks like Benny has thos pool wrapped up. Would take a massive comback by someone for him not to win

Well done.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Oh, didn't realize Benny had Rahm, too.

Someone needs to have their guy win the Open and have someone else finish top 5 to pass Benny, probably... plus Benny's guys need to finish outside the top 10.

Having Xander miss the cut at the PGA, and Wolff getting DQ'ed in the Masters and not playing the PGA really boned me over hard.

I've got two British players (Fleetwood and Hatton) who have largely been disappointments relative to their world ranking at basically all of the tournaments. Hopefully they can do well at the open.

These weather fascists are the WORST. I hate them. They think that everything revolves around them, that they have a mandate to ruin whatever show they want. And without fail, they come on and play with their graphics like they are toys, even though they are complete shit at using them. I hate their guts. This does not include our own weather guys on here, who are better in every way, etc.

I'm playing Manchester Country Club in Vermont this week. Supposed to be pretty damn nice. It's the second private course I've ever been on, so I'm excited to make a fool of myself.

Nicest course I have ever played is Vermont National, up by Burlington, VT. Also a private course, playing there was an outing at a conference for work. I almost eagled the toughest hole on the course. The rest of the course had me for lunch.

Good call, I already packed my shoelace belt so I'm golden now.

No word of a lie....a few weeks ago we played at a lesser course due to others being booked solid. On hole #1, 3 of us sprayed our tee shots to the left because hole 2 runs parallel and there is OB on the right.

We tee off on hole 2 and one guy sprays his shot well right this time. As we start walking toward up to our 2nd shots, a guy in the group 2 ahead of us starts yelling and screaming at us that it's the 2nd lime they have nearly been hit by one of our balls.

The due was wearing a sleevless shirt and blue jeans and was jacked.

Our buddy didn't bother going to get his ball and just hit another from our fairway.

Originally has a tee time scheduled for 4:20 today. Was iffy if we were going to play because of the rain. My buddy and I went up anyway and we're glad we did. The course was dry and the sun ended up being out. We played 18 holes in 2 1/2 hours...the same amount of time it took us to play 9 on Sunday...it was great

Anyone??

Not in that area. Plus, I can't really play on weekends - two young kids and can't get away on weekends.

No worries man.

What a finish this has been. On the 5th playoff hole

 

[Young Sandwich]

Manchester Country Club in VT was absolutely gorgeous. Front and back nine felt like two different courses, which I really enjoyed. The course was in phenomenal shape overall and had some incredible views, with the 18th tee being the highlight. Downhill tee shot over a railroad with the elevation change making the hole seem like it was 700 yards when in reality it was just over 400.

The greens were unbelievably hard to read for us first-timers. Lots of undulation in general, but some really tough to decipher optical illusions that would make putts break one way when we were all but positive they'd break the other way. Those mountain courses will get you. At least they were consistent and rolled pure on every hole though, which is all I can ask for. 10/10, would recommend.

Hey how’d I do in the golf draft thingy?
