“In response to enquiries regarding The R&A Celebration of Champions field and the Champions’ Dinner, we can confirm that we contacted Greg Norman to advise him that we decided not to invite him to attend on this occasion. The 150th Open is an extremely important milestone for golf and we want to ensure that the focus remains on celebrating the Championship and its heritage. Unfortunately, we do not believe that would be the case if Greg were to attend. We hope that when circumstances allow Greg will be able to attend again in future.”

That’s about as “get ta fuck” as you’d get from the R&A. They’re skipping Turnberry for ages, telling Greg to go “boil his heed”wouldn’t bother them at all,

John Daly out at 7:52am on Thursday, they’ll roll him out of The Kilted Pig across the road at half seven I’d say.

He was on a podcast I listened to recently and he basically said he’s never really sober, just maintains a buzz. Well worth a listen, think it’s The Full Send.

Sounds like the kind of guy who's accepted the fact that he'll shuffle off this mortal coil at about 65.
