Matt Fitzpatrick was fed up with the pace of play during Sunday's final round. He even complained to a rules official about his playing partner. "That was really frustrating. It was slow today. I felt like there was a lot of stop/start. Yeah, just, you know, just not ready. When you're not ready to play a golf shot it gets frustrating after awhile. "Particularly when you playing well yourself or you're in contention or whatever it is. There's definitely, you know, it definitely knocks you out of your rhythm."

Brilliant, pure dead brilliant... 🇪🇺 Could you imagine Seve talking on the crowds at Bethpage, the absolute boss of European golf as the tide turned! Sadly missed, never ever forgotten.
Only 37 players have won away from home. Time we added to that? Our Time. Our Place.

If you have any interest in how WHS is being received in Ireland, this is ‘required reading’. Golf Ireland has published preliminary findings of the survey they offered to all clubs after they initiated the 85% handicap option. However, many clubs did not even bother to trial it.

5 hours for first game out @TheOpen .... doesn't bode well for rest of the field!! Surely this is too long and a poor example to club golfers!!

This video could be an ad for links golf. 2 minutes of Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas messing around on the Biarritz hole at North Berwick. They were in town for the Scottish Open and walked 18 there just for the pure fun of it. Links golf brings out the kid in all of us and reminds us of what golf is supposed to be: Fun! Truly how golf is meant to be played. Pros do not just add extra rounds for fun on tournament weeks. It takes a lot for them to do it. Oh Scotland, when I’m not with you, I’m thinking about you.

Today is the first KFT Monday Q for an event in the States. There are two sites. And one of the sites might have the worst Monday Q greens I've seen. These are 4 of 50-75 pics I've received. All are the same. Really unfortunate.
