The Open 2026

[Mike Oxlong]

No interest in The Open this year?

Looks very dry, no wind, looks like perfect conditions, though datagolf still have the course favouring accuracy.

I was gonna open a thread this morning, but still recovering from last night. I can add links to previous opens if you'd like to your initial post.

Recovering emotionally or physically?

Sounds good!

Both, I had hoped to be in a more energetic position today, but I'm behind the curve at the moment. Will post lots of data up tomorrow.

I've edited the header so you can see previous tournaments.

No thread on here, Mike, but lots of interest on the exchange. That was a cracking market! Even as early as 7:00am the liquidity was really good.


Brilliant field, too. Nice to see all the big names in one place.

Chance of dropping a shot by hole.

Current wind direction and how they affect the holes.

The matched amount is well down on previous years.

Could be because the amounts on offer on each selection on Wednesday was much lower

Eg Don't think I saw much more than £11K available on McIllroy at any one time
when normally you'd expect around £30K or £40K

[Euler]

The US Open was similar. I sort of wondered if the World Cup may impact the Open this year.

[Euler]

McIlroy's put himself back into contention again.

[Euler]

Well, contention for making the cut anyway.

The US Open was similar. I sort of wondered if the World Cup may impact the Open this year.

Looks like the biggest golf layer has gone AWOL.

Here is how the course played today.
