he retired and was classified 24th. in Indycar you get points no matter where you finish

i think mine was the same, and it didn’t come until about 3 days post op

Max did it at Portugal a few years ago, different word, similar ‘non native speaker not knowing full meaning of word’ thing

everyone rightly forgot about it after a while, not worth getting into a tizzy over

this is an embarrassing moment to admit that i 3 putted for Par on that hole isn’t it… hell of an Eagle though congrats!

i had this recently, 300y par 4 over a crest so you couldn’t see the green. hit an uncharacteristically good drive that took a good bounce and trickled onto the green. was worried the guy ahead would be pissed but he just laughed when i got there

do you want to write the email or shall i do it?

these kind of stories about Callaway pushed me towards using their equipment when it was a 50/50 choice in a fitting

loving them so far and the peace of mind knowing that if something goes wrong they will more than likely help is very reassuring

something i saw made it make sense as a brit

you become acclimatised to the environment, so when it changes you react differently

15-20°C in spring, you’re coming off winter so you’d happily cut about in a tshirt and maybe shorts because you’re used to being cold. that same 15-20°C in Autumn you’re probably wearing a jacket or a jumper because you’re used to being warmer

add that to the fact that it’s not usually a sustained 25°C+ for any longer than a week or two so it’s a shock to the system when it happens and you don’t have time to adapt

i would say though that 40°C in Greece last summer felt equally as hot as the 25°C back home despite the humidity not being much lower. so maybe there’s more to it

switching from just putting a water bottle in the bag to putting an insulated water bottle in the bag

as for doing - obviously sometimes it doesn’t work - but if i’m green side and need to chip but don’t have a massive obstacle in the way, i will leave my bag further away and take 9i and putter with me. that way im not tempted to get cute with it and just hit a nice boring bump and run

that’s the thing that i really don’t understand, i don’t get upset on the internet when the Sky rebroadcast of NBC’s indycar coverage spends half the race fellating Colton Herta because i understand that American broadcasters love their American driver

i spent the first 15 minutes of my iron fitting firing hosel rockets and nothing else… is say it’s close

depends on the size of the distribution list, and what the subject is, but i find it equally annoying for someone not to reply all to an email chain that i need for monitor

always wait until they’re outside of your theoretical best range, it’s embarrassing to wait for someone to be 300y away only to top your shot and roll 50y but that’s less embarrassing than hitting someone

i use the claw grip on the putter to stop myself rotating the face through the swing, i use quite a strong interlock on everything else

i first got Taylormade Distance+ as they were cheap but i never got on with them. a club i visited had some event where the players got branded Titleist TruFeels so after finding a few in the woods i used them for a few holes and now they’re my go to. not as cheap as the taylormades but for my game they’re good and it’s nice to use the same balls so i know what to expect

if i was prema id want someone with a bit more experience to partner a Theo/ Illot type. someone like FRO if he wasn’t so settled at MSR would be perfect, not sure who’s in a similar mould

following up the best shot of the round with the worst, i hit the best 4i draw 210 to about 130 and then thinned my P wedge through the back of the green and lost the ball

i also had the shanks and the tops for the first 15 minutes of my iron fitting. never felt so embarrassed in my life even though the fitter couldn’t have been nicer about it

Cadillac the chassis manufacturer? who wants an entry to build a chassis? must have missed that announcement

go back to your school and ask for a refund for any money you gave them, it was wasted

the first constructor to win Monaco and Le Mans in the same year since the mid 30s if twitter is to be believed

there aren’t enough of them and they’re severely underfunded. the same with the Ambulance service

when i broke my leg i was told the wait was going to be 3+ hours, until i mentioned that i may have hit my head in the fall, they were there in 20 minutes

if you think the flat whites are bad wait till you see what a Macchiato actually is
