The World’s Greatest Descend on Royal Birkdale Open fever has definitely gripped us all here at Eaton Golf Club with us only being 1 hour away. I'm sure that most of you will have been over to watch the finest players in the world at some point by the end of Sunday's play. So, "who's going to win Bill" is being asked regularly in the shop. I like the chances of Rafa Cabrera Bello at 55/1 following his superb win in The Scottish Open last week. His final round 64 shows how great his form is, and we all know top form doesn't last long. Can he hang onto it for another week? Local favourite Tommy Fleetwood is also well fancied by many and is sure to be cheered on. A great start might see him carry it off. Nick's tip of the week is last year's winner Henrik Stenson, he certainly has the game for Birkdale. One thing is for sure, it will be a quality winner. Royal Birkdale always gives us that, either someone who is already regarded as world class or who goes onto greatness. Speaking of greatness here's Bubba Watson with my son Cam during practice: |
