I thought the law was/is that a catholic could not be the monarch and the line went through the Dutch throne after the Stuarts: William of Orange and then the Hanoverians.  

 

Without trying to go into details, this is basically correct.
William isn't catholic, but he certainly is more of a Stuart than any of the Windsors is a descendant of William the Conqueror. 😆

Tournament will be going ahead from tomorrow morning

Rory might have a shot at winning, since the event has been cut to 54 holes.

Richard Bland was on the 15th hole when play was halted at 6:32 p.m. BST and described the scene as surreal. The Englishman also said he doesn’t expect the tournament to continue. “I cleared out my locker,” he said. “This is too big.”

 

 

he's just one of those rebels anyway - amirite?

He’s forgotten how the cut works…..

[Barracuda]

Since the tournament is only 54 holes now, is this considered exhibition golf by Rory and Billy Ho?

This is great commentary by Hatton. I think we've all been there.

not to say her passing should be used as humor, but for us golf nerds, it's certainly added a sharp fruity flavor to the weeks' proceedings ...

Given Hatton's history with a wrist injury, it was actually a risk to take it on.

So now that it has been shortened to 54 holes, will there still be world ranking points?

Yes. Same as when the PGA Tour has had official events shortened to 54 holes. The event was a DP Tour  full field event scheduled for 72 holes that was eligible for OWGR points. It will have a cut after the 2nd round is completed.

Place is packed!

 

BHo sporting a purple hoodie lol

 

Very nice dense trees on this course , fall foliage must be spectacular 🤣

[sg91]

That’s a very interesting anecdote from Tony Johnstone about Rory switching back to the 2019 TP5x and pretty much solving his wedge issues.

How the hell do we watch what's happening?! 

 

I hope Rory wins this almost as much as the tour championship. It would be a massive win.

Golf Channel or Peacock or NBC sports app.  Trouble is it's only covered from 7am to 12:30 eastern time.  I guess I'll get up early tomorrow.

The DP tour showed the whole round of McIlroys group on youtube 👍

Didn't he just reel in Scheffler at the last 72 hole event?  The money and what was on the line was no big deal.  🤣

 

It also appears that Rory is very motivated this weekend for various reasons. 😂

Rory has seemed to be very motivated for quite a few months now. Forget the Ryder or President’s Cup…I want to see the Grunge Cup! At this point, it might produce the best golf matches ever.

Wow Sergio withdrew to just be on field at the Texas Bama game, what a weasel. Can’t believe I used to be a huge fan

Sergio’s a tool. No semblance of respect left.

I don't why people are saying since it is a 54 hole event, McIlory can win now.

 

McIlroy won the Canadian Open and Tour Championship (with a deficit) this year.

 

He just struggles to close out majors.

 

 

[iBanesto]

Rooting for Soren Kjeldsen to win. 🇩🇰

 

One for the short straight hitters.

And also one for the older guys. Would be his first win on 7+ years.

True.

 

Wonder if Thomas Detry 🇧🇪 can somehow sneak a win. The kid is steady but has not been able to close out tournaments.
