I'm not sure why they call it Golf?

It should be called "hitting stuff with sticks until something falls over" or "Pretending to play tennis while standing still"

Of course he didn't say that!

Happy Friday, folks!

Finally Tannahill Shield is here; but who will stop Team Royal?https://www.t-off.co.ke/2021/08/04/finally-tannahill-shield-is-here-but-who-will-stop-team-royal/

World number six Bryson DeChambeau has withdrawn from the golf tournament at the delayed Olympic Gamesin Tokyo after he tested positive for COVID-19 prior to travelling.

DeChambeau, last year's US Open champion, admitted he was "deeply disappointed" not to be able to represent the US at the Games.

The big-hitting American, the highest-ranked player on the list of the entrants for the men's event to be forced to pull out of Tokyo 2020 because of COVID-19, has been replaced by Patrick Reed.

Reed is set to join fellow Americans Collin Morikawa, a two-time major winner who won the Open Championship earlier this month, Justin Thomas and Xander Schauffele in the four-round men's golf competition at the Games, scheduled to take place at Kasumigaseki Country Club from July 29 to August 1.

At the beginning of 2021, John Lejirma set himself three ambitious targets; clinch the Kenya Golf Union double (Matchplay and Strokeplay championships), win the Tannahill Shield with Team Railway and play off handicap +4. Well, Lej is firmly on course after clinching the Kenya Amateur Matchplay title at Muthaiga Golf Club,a feat that earned him a ticket to Magical Kenya Open 2022

Collin Morikawa, 24, captured his second major championship on Sunday at the 149th Open, becoming the first men's golfer in history to win his debut at two separate major events. He also became just the eighth golfer ever to win two majors before the age of 25. The phenom finished 15 under for the tournament, besting second-place finisher Jordan Spieth (-13) and third-place finishers Jon Rahm and Louis Oosthuizen (-11).

Louis Oosthuizen will take a one-shot lead into the final round of The 149th Open as Jordan Spieth endured a disappointing finish to day three at Royal St George's.
Oosthuizen overcame a mid-round stutter to fire a creditable 69 as the superb scoring of the previous two days was countered by a tough course set-up for the third round in some of the most benign conditions at any Open in recent memory.

Louis Oosthuizen holds a 2-shot lead at The Open as the world's best tamed Royal St George's with a flurry of low scores on Friday.

He pulled 3 clear with an eagle at 14 but his first bogey of the tournament on 17 saw him card a 5-under 65 to close on 11 under par.
