  1. LMFAO, “It’s about 290 to the bunker so you wanna lay back with a long iron or 3 wood”- Rory The Goat …. my best drive going down a 60 mile an hour wind with a 100 yard bounce wouldn’t even make it to there ?

  2. Not a chance Rory.
    But you can damn well be rest assured that SKY Sports Golf will be driveling bollocks about him all weekend.
    May as well re-name the Open this year to the "Rory Mcilroy Show" That's if they can fit any actual golf in between the ads.

  3. I do wonder whether he's going to to try too much at Portrush. Shot selection is not the greatest at the best of times with Rory.

    I do hope he's in contention. Tiger getting his 15th and Rory winning at Portrush would be a magical year for the sport.

  4. I played this course last year and I can’t wait for this to start all the Irish lads should go well. Being a Belfast boy so proud of our wee country!!!
