We can't discount the fact that my opinions may have been slightly tainted by the performance of my selections.

What a scintillating final round Rory had. I wonder what the odds are for two players holing out from that bunker on the 18th?

I watched quite a lot of it on Sky Deutschland to combine watching golf with language learning. They just had two guys doing shifts with the commentary and a guy at the course, who interviewed Straka once and that was that. Very few adverts as well and those seemed to be sponsors.

The original phrase is "For you tommy the war is over" - "Sie" being the formal "you". Another thing to remember is never say "thank you" if a German wishes you "good luck" at the poker table.

I shall have to leave you guys to back & forth with all this German stuff, but on a more agricultural note I was impressed that Scottie Scheffler's wife rejoices in the splendid name of Meredith Scudder. | Click to see full-size image. |

The Americans do indeed have some fine names, I think a lot of it is due to them generally keeping their original language names rather than translating them into English. eg (Alan) Sugar would originally have been Zucher, but (Mark) Zucherberg is maintained in the US.

Haha true that. I read it wrong and thought the intent was, For Tommy, the war is over. My bad and good luck 😊 Pretty sure I should know every line in that. Movie by now. Whooshed me of course but can still chuckle when explained
