That murder in Kingswood is bizarre.
I would have been running through there this morning at that time only I decided a different route on a whim.
The first reports were saying it looked like she just randomly stabbed the guy to death because he was there. I likely would have been the only one around myself.
Reports now suggesting it was over where he parked his car. Madness.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

Poker events are the perfect situation for it to spread.
Groups of people passing around chips in close proximity for hours on end with a large proportion failing to wash their hands at any point.
If one person had it at any table, the whole room could end up contracting it.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned before and if it has, here it is again, but any golf fans should listen to the No Laying Up podcasts. Quality journalism and content. YouTube channel is great too.
Some of their last few pods have been very very good.
Peter Kostis interview, he calls out Patrick Reed in a major way.
Faxon interview. Great putting insight and lots re Rory putting.
Azinger interview. Some frat Ryder cup stories.
All fantastic.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

@Solks, I'd say you're in the minority on Reed but you can't help admire the ability to win after the few days before the event.
That's two good Sunday finishes in a row, Rory hasn't got a win but last six outings have resulted in six Top 5's

Outside of the painful speed he plays at, I actually admire his efforts to gain an edge.

So I agree! HahaThis may or may not be an original thought of my own.

I will say the Zinger interview had me lolling in lots of parts. Lee Westwood and AK feature heavily and it’s a great listen.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

I remember going to the Irish Open in Druids Glen as a kid and seeing a bunch of guys blatantly putting their marker down in front of the ball on the greens then putting the ball back in front of the marker when time came to take the putt.
Can't remember who any of the rest were but I remember seeing Wayne Reilly doing it multiple times. I see he's a commentator for Sky now. Was 100% cheating that week anyway.

If there is a risk of infection at a rugby match in the open air then the risk is multiples of 10 times worse sitting in an enclose breathing recirculated air for four hours.Turning millions into thousands

The bunker stuff is so obvious its hard to argue but the marker thing a player can feign a mistake I guess. And lining up many clubs behind a ball can be argued is normal order of play too... but its kinda on the line.

I don't think it is, maybe Im naive? At least not in televised events, although I've never, and doubt the telecasts, are watching too closely for it.airport, lol
