European Tour - 2019
First topic message reminder :
New Year, Time for a New Thread.
EuroTour makes it 2019 Debut this week with the Abu Dhabi HSBC Classic Presented by EGA. Next week is Dubai and the following week is the New Saudi Event
Guessing that the EGA Presentation got Abu Dhabi a promotion to a Rolex Series event.
DJ and BK are playing in Abu Dhabi. So is Fleetwood, Stenson, Oosthuizen, RCB, Barnrat, Poulter, and Oleson
Despite the the Hired Guns from USA and Rolex Promotion, Abu Dhabi will have its lowest OWGR rating in 10 yrs. Pelley can't be happy about that.

Happy to see Kinhult win, lovely swing and looks the real thing. Only 22 and it's a crying shame this W didn't arrive a week or two earlier to squeeze him into the PGA. Best Swede of their new generation?

Re: European Tour - 2019
Fair play Ned, good to hear. I had hoped to sneak a visit too but just too much on at the moment. I have played it a couple of times although it’s been a few years now. Absolutely loved it and thought it deserves a little bit better rank in the rankings. As you say not pure links (way too many trees which the R&A are apparently not keen on in links courses) personally I think that actually enhances the overall experience.
With regards to Howeller i’ll try and find out who the bag man was. It’s Howeller’s event at our place this coming Sat although word on the street says he can’t make it this year do do the presentations & stuff.

Re: European Tour - 2019
Cheers everyone,
Kwini, I think I still have Bjork as the best of the young Swedes, if he counts as young enough. But Kinhult certainly looks like he’s got a complete game, not the longest but solid with every club. Maybe not suited to the bomb and gauge courses as much as he is old style layouts.
JAS, Howeller’s bagman seemed to be annoying the other two all round, not a young guy but Catlin’s was an experienced looking type too and Canizares has Jan Squire who’s been around years. He rattled Howell’s bag as Canizares stood over a two footer on one hole and then had to correct himself when Squire called him out on saying “this way, boys” on the final green.

Re: European Tour - 2019
Ned,
You follow golfers the way I do- pick four (or more) groups for two days and follow them through the round.
Usually try and pick an early "featured" player and some lesser lights in the afternoon.
Was hoping to watch the Senior PGA next week but life intervened, so Hartford next.

Re: European Tour - 2019
I have two rules for going to tournaments Kwini. Rule one is get an idea of the course by walking 18 with a group where you can get close to the action (i.e. no one else much is with them). Rule two is if you want to give your legs a rest, do it by watching the field come through a par 3.
They apply best to Thursday and Friday, but my rule three is go to both those days and watch the weekend on tv.

Re: European Tour - 2019
I wouldn't have guessed five years ago that Bernd Wiesberger wouldn't have played Ryder Cup golf by now.
Hope this is a sign that he's healthy and coming back to his best.
Sporty run there from Oliver Wilson, -6 in 6 holes.
Keep it up boys, I love a good comeback! (PS: Gonzo & Dodo playing well too!)

Impressed with Robert MacIntyre, the first of the GB&I 2017 Walker Cup Team to really make his mark as a pro. Cameron Champ was in the US Team and he's had a purple patch of form already, but otherwise that crew are also just making their way thru' the minor Tours.
Well done Bernd, it's good to see you back!

Re: European Tour - 2019
Watched a bit of the Andalucia Masters yesterday. Thomas Bjorn on the 18th. Commentators said he had a putt to remain at +1 and make the cut. Someone started up a buggy and distracted Bjorn. Missed the putt. Commentators thought driver of buggy had better lie low. Anyway, the cut moved to +2 and Bjorn was still in. Scores -4 today and goes from scraping in to tied 7th. Just shows, never give up.

Just looking at the Irish Open leaderboard. They put a claret jug next to the names of those qualified for The Open. Big names (to me) not yet qualified include Kaymer, Power, Gonzo, Dunne and Beef. 3 places available.

Who's this Harrington bloke up with the leaders?
Playing without the pressure of needing a good finish just to qualify for Portrush working wonders. Let's hope it lasts.

Sounds good.
Interesting Ian Baker Finch talking about the Mohs procedure in removing his skin cancer. I've had two, no doubt more to come. But love the sun!!!!!!!!!!
St Padraig now leading the way.

Jeez, look after yourself Kwini
I'm on the factor 30 all week so haven't actually burnt, I can only imagine the atmosphere down there right now with Padraig leading, it must be mental

Re: European Tour - 2019
Pádraig did the fist bumps as he came off the 18th. Saw him suddenly pull his hand back and say “Won’t do that again” so I guess he got a harder one than expected. Always thought this was a bit dodgy for golfers. Would thought a “low five” would be better.

Ha! INW, thankfully it wasn't Jason Day or he'd be out for half a season.
Kwini, great to get the heat into the bones!!!!
The European Tour YouTube channel do some great round highlights. Padraig's and Shane's up there now

Tyrrell not doing great lately, I'm starting to think I want the Angry Tyrrell back he was playing some great golf there for a good stretch.

Re: European Tour - 2019
Interesting reflections from Beef Johnston in this interview:
http://www.europeantour.com/europeantour/season=2019/tournamentid=2019058/news/newsid=372461.html
Imagine there are a lot more players with internal traumas than make the news.
Weird thing with Johnston is that he built his own populist image, than seemed to have become overwhelmed by it all.

Yes Kwini indeed, too much too soon for the lad from Finchley it seems. Sounds like he had a pretty hectic last year with all the changes in his life personally and professionally. It's such a tough game mentally, I'm glad I don't do it for a living.

Re: European Tour - 2019
Haven't seen any of the tournament on TV, but scanning the leaderboard it's still a shame not to have Rory McIlroy there. But who can blame him? The way they pulled the rug out from underneath his feet, it might be a while before he returns to the Irish Open. If he does return soon, it's only because Rory has a hell of a lot more class than McGinley or the European Tour.

If you get a chance to drop in to Northern Ireland while over this side of the pond, don't forget to tell the locals your chum GPB thinks Rory's a snowflake

You said you did, perhaps you've changed your mind? We had an argument about it and since then robo's been chiming in with this guff. Even though it's been thoroughly explained to him, including quotes from Rory himself. But not to worry, I'm sure McGinley & the European Tour will survive robo's half baked notions/poor trolling efforts. Now I hope he gets back to enjoying his holiday.

Re: European Tour - 2019
Wonderful week of Irish Open golf courtesy of the Golf Channel, excellent coverage with only two quibbles:
*Unattributed but often lengthy tape delay - very Fox-like.
*Englishman Tom Abbott talks way too much. Wish he'd just shut up and go away.
Great golf and enough travelogue scenic stuff to make me want to book six months in Ireland, North and South.
Shame Martin Kaymer has still missed out on Portrush, but great to see Oliver Wilson & Eddie Molinari getting back towards their best.
Jon Rahm too good!

I don't remember calling Rory a Snowflake or anything close to that. Maybe I did, so if you can give me some context, maybe it will trigger my memory.
And I don't what Robo is talking about w/ respect to Irish Open and Rory.

Forget it GPB, it's no big deal. Robo, too cryptic for me I'm afraid, I've no idea ?? McGinley can't really give Rory too much grief though, everyone in Irish golf puts pressure on Rory to win more Majors, so they can't really complain when he actually goes ahead and schedules accordingly. If he goes on and wins in Portrush it will all be quickly forgotten.

Indeed Sr, two fine links courses. Too bad we couldn't have them back to back. But not to be this year. Looking forward to Portrush now, should be a great test.

Re: European Tour - 2019
Anybody played this weeks venue? Is it the gated one on the left on the way into Archerfield from the main road? I thought Muirfield was a bit snooty until I went down that road, bouncer on the Archerfield Clubhouse door wasn’t keen to let us in at all. The kind of place that really makes you appreciate the welcoming nature of North Berwick just down the road.

Re: European Tour - 2019
Just a quickie re next week, anyone know where to find the reserve list? Do the ones who just missed out in Final qualifying top the list? If so how do they then sort out the 4th places from the different venues? Does it go back to world ranking? Or are there 3 places up for grabs in East Lothian this week and that’s it? Anyone dropping out now doesn’t get replaced? Got to say the Open site isn’t great on elaborating.

Yes I've played Renaissance. Tom Doak masterpiece.
But in honesty it isn't as good a course as north Berwick.
The club was obviously for the loaded but it felt quite relaxed, most of the members were trollied on wine at lunch time.

JAS,
I believe the reserve list reverts to the OWGR as at the date of the Final Qualies. Korhonen and Pavan gained entry via that route last weekend.
It might be the ranking as at June 30th:
http://dps.endavadigital.net/owgr/doc/content/archive/2019/owgr26f2019.pdf
Perhaps Kaymer is a little further adrift than previously guessed as his Lahinch result would not count.
But would stress that this is just a guess!!

Re: European Tour - 2019
JAS - if it’s still there, have a look at The Open Final Qualifying Pages. I thought I saw a number against the players who didn’t qualify. This number is their placing on the alternate list. I might have remembered this for a different tournament so don’t hold me to it.

Joaquin Niemann just got his invite yesterday as an alternate. He was 82nd last week, 79th this week. Kaymer was 98th last week, 90th this week.
Daly just WDed from Portrush, this Golf channel article says Kaymer is third on the alternate list, behind Sabbatini and Harman.
Harman is ahead of Kaymer in the OWGR this week, and behind him last week, so they must be going off this week's rankings.

Who was I impressed with apart from Rahm, Wiesberger especially, he's come back from that injury really well and he has a chance of Ryder Cup next year imo! other include probably Grant Forrest, Zander Lombard and Mike Lorenzo-Vera

Par looks to be about 68/69 at this Renaissance place. My GC TV feed is out at the moment - is it playing as a links course?
If not, what's the point?

5 players (at the time of this post) from the Morning wave over par, 74 is trending as the highest score.
I can't believe the course didn't grow the rough up to 6" and narrowed the fairways to 15 yds wide.

Might just as well be playing the PGA Tour on a dog day afternoon . . . . . . . .

Or maybe the stakeholders of the course do not want to jump through hoops for a tenant that is going to be there for one week. I don't blame them one bit.
