I've played it a few times and love it.

Did some work at it for a sub contractor about 4-5 years ago now before I played any golf myself. Fantastic course will definitely get back to play having worked on it.
Staff were all lovely and very accommodating of us as well which was nice as at certain clubs that wouldn't have been the case.

Make sure and let us know what you thought of it.
It's a serious golf course. With buggies I still managed 14,000 steps. The place was buzzing with golfers, people out for there dinner and little parties. Staff were spot on and food was excellent. I'll be back.

A lot of ones would head there just for the food even if no interest in golf.

A hilly bastard. Some cracking holes on it but the greens are hit and miss I find. You'll have a great day out though. I have played shite every time I'm there 🫣

I'm not getting much golf at all. New baby in the house and my golf game has went to shite! I'm not playing comps so my handicap is still officially off 7 but I'd say I'm realistically off about 15 ffs.

Will Fleetwood hold onto his lead and break his duck in America?  :o

Surely he can't f**k it up from here!

Any golfer unable to land it on those big wide fairways should hang up their clubs!

Nice touch. They were genuinely delighted for him.

thewobbler

Popular winner. Seems like a nice fella and hasn't changed after taking more than a few on the chin over the years.

Puckoon

Popular winner indeed, very deserving with his play this year. Glad being put on the clock didn't take him out of his rhythm. At that stage the darling boy Scottie was still well in contention and it felt calculated to single out Fleetwood's group. It's always Cantlay. He's slow AF.

gawa316

Delighted he won that.


Was looking at the world rankings... Ryder Cup should be good with Europe having 7 players on top 20, then Lowry 21st and the add Rahm & Hatton to that. Watch a bit of golf but was shocked to see Thomas at no. 5 in the world, thought he was going the Spieth route

So happy for Tommy by all accounts a good spud. He threw away 3-4 wins in the last few years I'm so glad he got over the line he's been outstanding recently!

Bodes well for Europe

Tommy has some set of white gnashers!  :o  ;D  ;D
