Honestly I’m absolutely gutted for the lad. I peeled away quickly once the final whistle blew in the hurling and made a move for Brian boru as I knew they’d the golf on. I hoped Rory was going to crown the mother and father of weekends for me but somethings weren’t to be.
Some of these elite level sportsmen whether it be tiger, Tom Brady, Ronaldo or whoever always seem completely robotic. Almost something not human about them.
Rory is so talented but he’s also flawed. He’s made so many mistakes and makes such obvious fuck ups it’s so easy for me to relate to him.
I was thinking Saturday evening this was done. It was name on the cup stuff tbh but I didn’t sort of feel it would be better if his next one was Augusta. Who knows what will happen but this will hurt more than any other defeat.
Smith is off to the Saudi Tour. His answer to a question on this topic at the presser was like Lance Armstrong to Paul Kimmage.
The Great White Shark is idolised by all Aussie golfers. They’ll all go to LIV eventually I’d say.
