I have an irrational dislike of Adam Scott

What were the odds on calc pre-tourney

One Way Ticket on the 1277 Express (Bill Magill), Saturday, 21 July 2012 15:17 (eleven years ago) link

Scott/Tiger final pairing would be fun tomorrow for the caddy drama. (That already happened in another tournament, didn't it? Not the final round, though, and not a major.)

If Tiger could only get these approach shots to stop rolling. Hope Scott doesn't run away with this over the next few holes.

clemenza, Saturday, 21 July 2012 16:36 (eleven years ago) link

£5 e/w on zach johnson at 66-1.

£2 win on adam scott at 40-1.

The wind is looking up and as long as Tiger falls apart it should be good Going for Graeme to win this.

otoh I love this run of 18 new major winners to continue.

RIP

I'll hang on with Tiger for a few more holes and then, if he hasn't made up some ground, start rooting for Phil Collins.

clemenza, Sunday, 22 July 2012 15:13 (eleven years ago) link

man oh man wasn't that tripple bogey so much joy!

Though he's made a birdie since but it should be over.

Graeme made a nice birdie at the last but he'll drop one at the 9th - its Scott's but everybody is dropping shots.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 22 July 2012 15:27 (eleven years ago) link

Drops one at the 10th, not 9th.

Scott looks assured, then again there isn't much pressure

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 22 July 2012 15:41 (eleven years ago) link

I'm feeling confident

Watching Tiger on Sundays has become a form of masochism.

Johnny Fever, Sunday, 22 July 2012 16:42 (eleven years ago) link

really? i'm enjoying it

mookieproof, Sunday, 22 July 2012 16:48 (eleven years ago) link

Whoah--this should be fun.

clemenza, Sunday, 22 July 2012 16:58 (eleven years ago) link

Tiger is history.

Scott is on a mini-meltdown, this is goig to test everything he's got.

That was tough. Sorry, LocalGarda.

I kept thinking during the afternoon that it all seemed too easy for Scott, that guys rarely coast to a major, but that even if he fall back a couple of strokes, it wouldn't matter--Els couldn't make a putt, and the other three guys were all over the place. Majors are just so unpredictable over the final few holes.

clemenza, Sunday, 22 July 2012 17:25 (eleven years ago) link

@jadande
I hate to see any athlete gag like that, but I always root against golfers who use extra-long putters.

^ my exact thoughts

lol xp

Al S. Burr! (k3vin k.), Sunday, 22 July 2012 17:25 (eleven years ago) link

lol @ BBC interviewer to Adam Scott: "That run of three bogeys didn't help you at all, did it?"

Johnny Fever, Sunday, 22 July 2012 17:33 (eleven years ago) link

Just so fkn unprofessional.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 22 July 2012 17:38 (eleven years ago) link

So I did hear that question right--even Scott couldn't suppress a disbelieving laugh. "No, the bogeys set me up well for a possible playoff."

clemenza, Sunday, 22 July 2012 17:42 (eleven years ago) link

who is that ernie els guy

skrill xx (cozen), Sunday, 22 July 2012 19:00 (eleven years ago) link

two weeks pass...

Last major of the year. Tiger was listed as the favourite yesterday--9-1, with Donald next at 18-1--which surprises me, but I guess that's simply guided by where bettors are actually putting their money. Absent that, I wouldn't make him the favourite in a major right now. The only logical favourite these days is whoever hasn't won one within the last four years.

clemenza, Thursday, 9 August 2012 13:34 (eleven years ago) link

Woods is just one of the guys now, which is actually an improvement over the last 2 years, but really they're all just one of the guys now. No one player or two players have separated themselves from the pack in the last 4 years so I guess he's as much a favourite as anyone else.

I have no clue who'll win this. Dustin Johnson maybe? Even tho' he's having a less than stellar season.

pandemic, Thursday, 9 August 2012 13:40 (eleven years ago) link

LUKE DONALD????????????????????

Anybody can win this one. Do you have a link to the odds?

One Way Ticket on the 1277 Express (Bill Magill), Thursday, 9 August 2012 15:55 (eleven years ago) link

These are a little different than what I saw yesterday, but pretty close:

clemenza, Thursday, 9 August 2012 17:00 (eleven years ago) link

Thanks. I like Dufner at 25-1
