Meteorite GMT on PGA British Open

Tuned into the British Open and saw this great looking meteorite GMT. Classy watch. Can’t say the same about PGA haircuts. Since when did the PGA become the official home of the mullet? Clubhouse needs a barber.

Strictly speaking, it’s “The Open”, rather than “The British Open”. I know plenty of British people who are particularly touchy about that one!

Good luck! That would be a nice hit.

last week in Vegas I placed a couple bets for a friend. Was shocked how much better the odds were in old town

Fowler @ Palazzo 14/1. Fowler @ Golden Nugget 25/1.

Lowry is still looking good, looks like Koepka is not going to get this one.

Nope, still nine off the lead - it would be a miracle!

I think the haircuts are often the result of wearing promoters caps all the time.
They can't get them on quick enough when the interviews start.
Tommy Fleetwood obvious exception... Just a bad haircut.

Damn that bet, good luck! Hope you win.

And this GMT looks so good, I hope it stays in production and won't be done within 5 years. It's too good and should stay.

Indeed. Hindsight is 20 20 but that bet on Brooks is very very much negative ev. Even Caribbean stud has better odds.

Instead of 'bet' or 'wager' I like to use the phrase "I've taken a position". In fact, The Buffalo Bills 4 Super Bowl loses made me take an extremely embarrassing postion: As in bent over and getting the Greased Pole.

Never bet again except some 21 in Vegas. I sincerely hope you win that bet, I'll live vicariously through you and be exhilarated and happy for ya. Good luck sir.

Yeah, the line I got was terrible. Most books had him 10/1 but was leaving right after hitting the sportsbook and wanted action. This was rolled over after betting $400 at +8000 odds that Gary Woodland would win the US Open

Well that was disappointing, oh well. I'm sure you can afford it. Might be worth putting another $20k on for the Masters in 2020.
