Let's go Euros

That's awesome. Have fun and post pics itt if you can!

Also, if I got decent odds, I'd bet good money on there being a playoff.

Feeling a Rosy win or maybe this be the one for SERGIOOO considering no Roars which is unfortunate. Everyone gotta fade the SPEEEF though.

Also no adverts. Which is probably my favourite thing about this major.

I extreme wantsssss it.

Also he could be leading by 4 going down the last and it would still be entertaining as 50 percent of people would expect the choke to come.

Pulling hard for a Tiger win just to see this dude's meltdown on live TV. Have they ever taken anyone off a live postgame set in a straightjacket?

How do the shared greens work? Are there two holes?? What happens if you're playing the 2nd and the ball goes in the 16th hole??

It might be boring on TV, maybe even boring for the pros, but it's pretty amazing in person.

I'll bet you $10 that Faldo makes the cut - Paypal or via Stars whenever you guys can play online again.

It's his last time here, but he can play another 2 if he wants to. More if he plays well and can use the Watson rule.

Or if you don't want to bet for cash we can have another bet..

If Faldo makes the cut, you can't use Faldouche or any other similar name before the start of the 2016 Open. If he misses the cut, I can't post in any SE golf Major thread until then.

Choose a bet, or decline both - up to you.

ok, best finish wins. If they tie then no blood. If they both miss cut lower score wins bet or no bet? Either one works for me and is like 5% to actually be an issue.

I have Spieth and you have Sergio.

Can you do venmo? If not paypal is ok.

I'm prepared to make the bet even if he is a massive underdog - just to stop the Faldouche crap if he pulls it off.
