Watching the Open has reminded me of something I had forgotten for a long time: how much I like De La Soul.
McIlroy missing putts…
As Sweden vs. England kicks off at Euro 25…
Fast start to the game. England is both lucky to be down only 1-0, and also unlucky not to be tied at 1-1.
Sweden’s energy and pressing caused England to implode a couple of times at the back. The question is, how long will Sweden be able to sustain this level?
Long enough, apparently.
How did that England girl not get a card for that studs-up challenge from behind?

Just like against France, being found out by a more energetic side.
I am not excusing that one, but I have been pleasantly surprised at how this tournament has been refereed. It’s a non-contact contact sport (like basketball), and it is being officiated as such here.
Contact between players is not always a foul. Players falling over is not always a foul.
Apropos nothing, I’d quite like to be caught offside by this referee but then she waves play on…
Apparently “Agyemang” is Ghanian for “snakebit in front of goal”.
…then comes Lucy Bronze. Game on!
…and then Michelle Agyemang shuts me the fuck up!
Free football.
Not a PK clinic.

Shootouts are a necessary evil. Both sets of players were out on their feet after 120 minutes.
Lucy Bronze scored the goal that ignited the England comeback, and roofed the penalty that turned out to be decisive. Late in extra time, she was down on the ground and just taped herself up so she could carry on.
Lucy Bronze is a fucking baller.
Right now at Port Rush, there are players comfortable in short sleeves while elsewhere on the course others are wearing hoodies and hunkered down as Hurricane Armageddon passes over.
Matt Fitzpatrick just left two birdies on the greens while Scheffler stalks his ass.
If Scheffler can find the fairways off the tee, he’ll be hard to beat.

I’m one of the world’s worst golfers, but this course is beautiful and the terrain is totally terrifying. Everything has slope.

If you think that’s tough, McIlroy just hit his ball in the rough and there was another ball under it.

Rory just hit a ball out of the rough…bends down and picks up a second ball that was buried underneath his
Pretty sure it’s one of mine.
