Golf forum

As I am not playing on the 14th though wishing I was I am keen to follow all the news as it breaks on the day. 

I presume that Gary Lineker will hot foot from covering the Masters to present live coverage of an event of equal importance in the golfing calendar (though maybe not this one) and that reporters will be out on the course following the action as it happens.  

Broadcast interviews with team captains before teeing off will record the missplaced optimism of victory (North) and coverage from the 1st will be able to record drives that don't make it as far as the ladies tee (now when did that ever happen?).

I hear too through the grapevine that Ian Poulter is rattled by reports of flamboyant outfits planned for the event and will be on hand with sartorial tips for the players.

With all your technical wizardy Darren and a 3G card inserted somewhere appropriate I hope you will be able to blog the results as they come in to allow the victory celebrations to start in the Southern counties after the 9th group return to the clubhouse.

Enjoy the event guys and gurls - I just hope it doesn't snow (As if it would in April)

I guess I could ask my little friend to text me the results as they happen, and in turn I could post them on here. If that would help?

The results should start to come in around 4pm.

I mean....If we wait for Darren, we wouldn't know what happened for about 2 weeks

Harsh, but a degree of truth maybe...

Yes, and actually any of us could do that if the results could be texted.  Needless to say it would only be the matchplay results that we'd be interested in as the play unfolds so it should not be too onerous a task.

If someone there has access to the web then more detailed blogging could be done but yes if someone could text the results (truthfully) then you could post them if you are offering.  Maybe even results at the turn could be fed back though it doesn't want to be too complicated.

Better than the 2 inches of snow that Myself Andy and Simon were faced with this morning though.

Andy thats the first Sundowners (the irony isnt lost on me) game that has been cancelled due to weather, you were very unlucky hopefully you can make the next game.

Well John....Darren has this knack of organising events for when the weather is not at its best....

And i really did modify the last part of that 

Some form of play is possible in most weather conditions but putting in 2" snow is testing...!  I'll try and make it along another time Col.

We all drove to Belfairs afterwoods but shortly after we arrived it was the same situation there. A couple fo the guys got a game in the afternoon at three rivers i think.

Better bring some colouered balls, oh and you girls heading north for this event may need to bring some rather large pink ones, you may need them....

Weather looking pretty good for both days.
