How good can Rory get when he isn't going to be spending all his time flying around the world watching tennis. Very impressive win after seeming to fritter shots away all week.

"Given McIlroy's recent form, plus missing the cut in the last two years at Wentworth, we're happy to take him on."

Just thinking of the fact that J.P. McManus tournament in Adare Manor has been taken from the calendar as McManus is too busy trying to make more biliions. It was the best ever chance to see an array of golfers and other stars up close and personal.

I think the Rory/Caroline thing will be back within the year. He just needed space to find his golfing mojo. She must be disappointed with her tennis decline as well. Still young, still time.

I think Rory and his family should be all.owed run their own personal lives and forumies could concentrate more on picking winners like Rory ans Shane. It is too easy to knock people. Harder to identify successful people and take alesson from them.

Had a 'Top Ranking' Yankee bet too...
Henrik Stenson @ 21.00 (World #1 in waiting) Adam Scott @ 17.00 (Current #1 for nearly a week) Nairo Quintana @ 2.10 (Giro Fav) Bernhard Langer @ 5.50 (Charles Schwab Cup Points leader)
SORRY GUYS, in all the Caroline news and confusion last week forgot about this bet with a different/new bookie (awaiting another account closure email no doubt).
Stenson part LOST...IF he birdied 18 for 5th I was right O !...Scott won...Lets say Quintana WON ffs and Langer was tied 3rd (with 8 golfers involved in the payout)
1 Colin Montgomerie -13 2 Tom Watson -9
T3 Jay Haas -7 T3 Bernhard Langer -7 (@ 5.50)
T5 Joe Durant -6 T5 Mark Brooks -6 T5 David Frost -6 T5 Bart Bryant -6
HOW IS THIS BET SETTLED (e/w yankee - 5 places - remember Langer was T3)
p.s. not a boasting post as only discovered the bet now.
