Billy, this is Rory McIlroy. He's the greatest driver of the golf ball in history, and his generation's finest player. His only defect is he can't hit the hole from 6 feet.
Rory's driving stats in R1:
• 2 of 14 fairways (no one hit less)
• 131st in SG Off-The-Tee (-1.01)
• Only hit driver 6 times
Yet he's under par and in the top 20.
Will post my thoughts on the course when I roll into bed in 90mins here, but must mention the players walking in slow motion is a grind to watch. Please, at the very least move faster between shots. It's like a scene from the international space station
@eric_nelligan@EwanMacKenna As much as I’d love to throw the phone thing etc into this convo, it’s not a toughie, Eric. And you are being ever so hypocritical with your stand points. Eek
It’s a toughie Ewan.
My parents had interest rates of 20%. Only one wage. They didn’t holiday abroad. Drove 1 car.
Young people today are in Education well into their 20s, then many go travelling for a few years. They go on multiple holidays, have cars, spend money like it’s going out of style, clothes, cosmetics, phones. Young people today have far more to spend on.
Different times, unfair to compare.
The more I meet the boomer generation, the more I get angry. They got everything handed to them relatively. No mortgages, now big pensions, easy lives, and they look down on anyone younger and say work harde,r with no interest in even comprehending the reality they created.
@4golfonline Now that’s twice I’ve been called a random today. I reeeeally don’t want to sound like it matters but Is this a twitter term for people that don’t have 100 followers? From people that think they know more 😳.
@Geeeeeeee_J Yep that exactly correct.
I can’t explain to a random why they might not see the funny side of an awful piece of TV.
That’s exactly correct
Hahahaha good luck with your ears.
@tweeth_mitchell@DailyTaxMemes “His only defect is he can’t hit the hole from six feet” 🫠 I’ve got to go back to real life. Apologies, my fault for getting involved with this kinda group. 🙌
Love from random guy to people that actually think they’re not random guys 😂

@tweeth_mitchell Thought that was fairly straight forward. You said he couldn’t hit the hole from six feet and I showed you his putting stats. I also included what he said last week about the greens but he also was one of the best putters there. So now he has good greens and…. straight forward
