Golf - The Majors 2017

[maccavennie]

Sadly I agree with everything you said. Monty was the better player no doubt and even he didn't manage to win one. Westwood's best chance came last year eagled 15 to tie the lead with Willet then 3 putted the next. Whereas Sergio like Westwood has putting issues, his short game is far superior to westwood's. Maybe birkdale, with its emphasis on hitting fairways and greens could be westwood's last chance, as it suits westwood's game. Saying that if I had to put money on the next first time major winner, it would be Rahm or pieters, 2 unbelievable talents.

Pieters certainly looks like he's got all the tools to win a few majors doesn't he.

Pieters and Rahm are so talented. They fit the 'profile' of a modern golfer. Tall, athletic (certainly in pieters case) can drive the ball vast distances, but both have outstanding short games. All they lack at present is the experience. Pieters has moved up another level following his impressive Ryder cup showing and Rahm has already won on the U.S. Tour. Don't be surprised if one if these lands a major this season.

...US Open starts today, have had a few speculative bob on Webb Simpson @ 150-1 and Cabrera Bello @ 100-1. The course is apparently massive so long, straight drivers will surely be the order of the day.

Brandt Snederker 100-1 and Patrick Reed 80-1 for me.

Love the US Open, have chucked a couple of quid each way on Tommy Fleetwood as well for obvious reasons.

..suggest the mods change the thread title to 'Golf - The Majors 2017' (@roydo @Groucho for consideration).

Gone Rham n Pieters. Tommy Fleetwood u fancy will do well around Birkdale in a few weeks, as long as the pressure of his home town doesn't do him.

 

[Maxwell]

Gone Fowler (again), looking forward to him leading into Sunday and then his head falling off as per usual.

He's 6/5 with GOT sponsors for a top 20 finish.
Had a bit of that.

The record of golfers who win tournaments who's partners have just had babies is a ridiculous stat that I've followed for about 15 years.
Dustin Johnsons fit Mrs had a boy on Monday. Just saying. He's 7/1 e/w first 8 available.
I'm also a big fan of Justin Thomas.
