M7 US Open - Round 2 Review

Writer's picture: alastairloneyalastairloney

Well, it looked like another day the USPGA had un-USopened the US Open but Winged Foot came roaring back. Harris English said it best “Even with a perfect drive there is still a good chance you can make bogey”. Lovely.


FatPrick still looking good and various others have been up near him and then fallen away. Rahmbo still lurking which is my bet for the win, but the chubber might just do it.

Moving day….. Not saying DJ can win but he could charge up, others can easily fall down. Perfect recipe for some M7 volatility. I very much enjoyed Jordan Spieth shooting +14 too.

Cruising The Highway

  • The 3 most popular picks all somehow made the cut much to the annoyance of everyone hoping for BOTR. You never know. A charge from the likes of Day (45 picks), Casey (43) & DJ (41) could see the M7 leaderboard shuffle.

  • Still, Rahm 12th & English 3rd looking good for a big group.

The Road Less Travelled

  • Rafa Cabrera Bello (3rd) looking an inspired left field selections for Will 'Boris' Buck as well as Zach Johnson in 28th

  • Michael Thompson (Craig 'Katherine' Jenkins) in 33rd the only other unique pick looking ok.

M7

Top

  • Everyone in the top 20 has a chance of a prize, but with Johnathan 'Nigel' Spink on a cracking 30, it will take some fck ups from more than 1 golfer for them to take the top prize. 5 picks in the top 7. Bravo.

  • 2nd place Steve 'Archie' Bishop with 7 players is a real danger. Just needs Zalatoris or Casey to make a run.

  • Dont forget Michael ‘Safe’ Havens also with 7. 4th place and has never lost at M7. Incredible.


BOTR

  • Always a competitive battle, and even more so with only 60+ ties making the cut. Anyones prize this but Ben 'Jump off a cliff and' Gliddon currently sits on pole.


Bottom

  • Devastated. The record chance is gone. Emily'Dogs and' Katz & Nicholas 'Dumpty' Humphrey both challenging John 'Cliff' Talbots unassailable 500. 2nd highest score to aim at is Will 'Boris' Buck 455 from the 2017 US Open. Emily has a chance.


M5er · Michael Patersons competition is over as he is down to an M3.

Reigning ChampsMichael ‘Safe’ Havens 4th (please god, no - he's gonna be setting off money laundering alarm bells at this rate), Rob ‘Glands’ Hands in 49th & Tiso 'Know Something I Don't?' Faletose in 90th


Cheers,

Baloney
