Two men and an Open conversation

July 16, 2024 • Martin & Des

Martin and Des sit down to discuss the Genesis Scottish Open, a great win for home favourite Bob MacIntyre, and preview the 152nd Open from Royal Troon. Young Mike dials in from his isolation ward (actually his home office) as he fights a new bout of Covid but in his own words "the show must go on".
Plenty of talking points from Bob's free drop on 16, Aberg's unexpected slump, Keegan's appointment as USA Ryder Cup Captain, Joost Luiten's continuing battle to make the Olympics, Ayaka Furue's first major, Harry Hall's breakthrough PGA win and a win for Sergio on the exhibition circuit.
Plus our preview of the Open and our choices for who might win, who can deliver a sneaky top 5 and which big name do we see going home early by missing the cut. Agree/disagree via our Twitter/X portal @ITFOG_podcast or via Instagram @ITFOG. Have a great Open week.
