Devastating for John Rahm. Way out in front and even a hole in one, but has to withdraw after testing positive for Covid.

Gutted for him.
Loving the Keopka v De Chambeau spat.

I may have missed it but I can't see any mention from you golf tragics of Mickelson becoming the oldest ever major winner - one months shy of his 51st birthday?

Ok fellas, I need help. I have been a very occasional golfer at times, just hack around a few holes at times with mates. Never got close to 100 for 18 holes (probably only tried a couple of times, and nowhere near 50 on 9 holes. I have a set of Cleveland HB3 irons, about 15 years old.
So now I retired and getting older and slower I decided I might try a bit of golf, joined a local club (Eltham) just a small country club. They have a 9 hole haggle on mid week which suits me at this stage etc. Thing is I tempted to get some new clubs, the ones I got now don't quite feel right, ( they almost look like hybrids) and while in gold warehouse salesman reckoned a set of GWX Platinum men series would do me nicely. thay seem pretty flexible graphite shafts, but becuase they had a few trying clubs I didn't get a chance to try them. Anyon got any advice etc, I don't want to spend a fortune and at 67 , I not going to play forever, and swing speed certainly not going to increase. -

I just googled those clubs, and yeah they arent 'standard' irons by the look (personally never been a fan of most Cleveland stuff which tended to be a bit different)
But at your age, there are certainly plenty of clubs that can assist you, so ideally try a few different ones, there are alot of variables to golf clubs, but ultimately, you will know if it feels right.

I know this dude is pretty divisive, on tour with players and fans, but I like watching him hit the ball (hate his putting set up)
Saw a post earlier showing him playbthe 18th, the amount of people ripping him for only making par and shooting 60 was ridiculous.

Anyone watching the Ryder Cup?
Some vocal crowds...even some booing, singing, chanting while players hitting shots

That's really shitty.

I reckon they should have at least 1 tournament where shouting and booing is encouraged, even during a shot. Call it the Happy Gilmore Open or something. Would be great fun to see them cut loose and rark the crowd up, give each other some shit even.

I see the NZ Open has been cancelled for 2021. That sucks! We sponsor it and it is a good jolly down there!
