  But Kaymer at 27's is too good to let slip..he will miss the bad weather which is forecast for friday late afternoon and with Poldi winnin the VUSO and the footy team winnin the world cup, it has to be ...  :)

  Omen bet ....lol

  Conditions are pretty kind for the morning groups.

  According to the weather reports over here,it's going to be hot today with tomorrow being the hottest day of the year,reaching a whopping 31 celcius lol.But the forecast for the weekend is for rain and thunderstorms,which will definitely make things a lil interesting :)

  31c in Aus is perfect, but I remember when I was over there, the temp was 23c and was stinking hot.

  There's some pretty good golf played at the moment.

  LOL. What do I know? I just bookmarked the site and when I went to get it later this is what the bookmark was called.  Maybe it's a site thing.  ;-)

  I guess it is obviously that whatever agreement that WGT had with the R&A has gone by the wayside and won't come back.

  That being said I guess we won't be having any more British Opens on here, even if the play is at the courses that we have.

  I would suggest to WGT that they work with the PGA to bring the PGA and the course that is hosting it to WGT in the future.  We had some form of that a few years ago when it was at Kiawah but I'm more talking about a new course not just the happenstance that they were playing on the course we already had.

  The US Open and British Open are fairly close together anyway so spreading it out several months would allow everyone to take a break after the Open and get ready for the PGA in August.  It should be much easier to do and with many of the courses that the PGA uses fairly accessible it might not cost as much.

  With the demise of Tiger Woods Golf game I would think the chances of getting the TPC courses would be pretty good.
