    I'm absolutely the same and just get sucked into occasions like this. Especially when there is history to be made!

    What I have seen of this tournament is getting the juices going for the Ryder Cup.
    Some great performances from both sides

    Really torn on the outcome but what a day!! Privilege to watch such drama unfold. Justin is simply amazing, Rory resilient to succeed in the end.

    Still getting to grips with the way the Masters ended. Possibly the most up and down final round from the eventual winner I have ever witnessed.
    To drop 4 shots from 11-14 and then hit that incredible shot to the 15th green took so much mental strength. To then follow that up with great approach shots to the 17th and then on the playoff hole was the sign of a player who was at his peak.
    I still feel for Justin Rose, though. What a final round he had, to apply pressure and give himself the chance to win <applause><applause>.
    The US PGA is in a month or so, at Quail Hollow, a course where Rory has won four times. Could be a great opportunity for him to win another major.

    I imagine you said something like “well this is clearly all over, not worth staying up for”




    And we all thank you !

    If found guilty, I hope he gets the appropriate punishment.

    No big deal for them .

    Will he take it , or take a year out so he can see what teams are delivering ?

    Or he might just walk away .

    The last option wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest .

    Piastri has been faultless apart from Japan where the conditions were horrible.

    Yep. He’s very, very good, getting better, and is completely unflappable. It’s a good combination.
