In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Is it surprising that his quest for distance has ultimately fecked the rest of his golf game?
Just watched a bit of LIV golf 
it's hilariously dog shit.
Music blaring in the background, then the caddies shouting at crowds to be quiet even moving the crowd out of shots way the caddies sound absolutely raging, like they're shouting at their own kids. All very unprofessional tbh

Max Homa!
Oh Danny!
Fair play to Homa - he acted like a gent there and didn't celebrate in front of a clearly shellshocked Willet.

Homa seems to be a solid dude.
Love Homa - obviously taste is subjective but personally I find him to be up there with Rory as most likeable players on the tour currently.
I haven't watched that much of him before, but very impressed with him there. His adrenaline levels had to be sky high after that chip in but he handled it with pure class.
He has an impressive Twitter game as well.
He’s a fantastic follow on Twitter
Are we into the 2023 season yet? I never can tell when the wrap around portion starts.

Yes - the Fortinet is the 1st tournament of the new season.
The Foreplay guys (and Barstool as a whole) can be distasteful at times, but if you are at all interested in a ~2 hour video of Homa being extremely likeable then here you go:

Not sure this president's cup will be much of a competition. Internationals are a bit undercooked.
My man Colin shooting darts all day yesterday.

I’d bet on Justin Thomas + Jordan Spieth against the world if they’re playing for Team USA. Those two dudes play together like they were born to do it.
Thomas and Spieth do it again!
the regression of Adam Scott in the last few years is rather sad given how talented his is. He's only 42 but you would swear he's mid 50's with his game.

This is an amazing story.
- Took pressure from Lachlan Murdoch to get Fox Sports to even consider.
- Still making LIV pay them to broadcast.
- LIV has to produce it themselves.
- LIV has to find sponsors themselves.
No one is really going to watch this, especially as 2 of the next 3 events are half a world away and the third is at a Trump golf course!
My buddy, and longtime golf partner, who I have not seen since pre-COVID (he has a pediatric specialty and has been in the Children's Hosp. COVID ward for almost the entire time) is flying in this weekend so we can finally have our "We're 40 now!" Golf weekend. Well, we WERE going to do that. fecking Hurricane.
It’s just not an interesting concept. The Ryder and Presidents cups are a 1 a year thing and on top of being rare, the players play for nothing…
Ah that sucks man. My dad and brother are due to fly out here from New York to Portugal at the end of the month for a trip - I'd be fecking gutted if that doesn't happen at this point.
Hope you and yours can batten down the hatches and stay safe!
We are going to try and get 18 in on Friday before the predicted continuous drizzle turns into a downpour, but Sat and Sunday are gonzo.
Poor substitute I know but is there a TopGolf that'll stay open near you?
Have any of you played at pine valley or Cyprus point? Friends dad has connections at pine and I might be able to get a round but want to know how ridiculously difficult it is.
im thinking of a trip to big cedar lodge to play the courses there in a couple of years so might try and load up

40 min away, but it might have to suffice.
Sounds like a solid choice for an Uber over with a flask or two...
Played Cypress Point once. Never played Pine Valley. That course puts tour pros on their knees as there is no real rough, it is basically unkept, native sand ‘bunkers.’
But don’t let that stop you. Getting on PV is the pinnacle of golf.
I’m on my knees on normal courses so it makes no difference to me
Still not as good as Kim Jong Il
Ain’t no way
You get any golf in at all? How’s the weather faring up there?
Nope, rained all day. Instead we drank beer all day and played FIFA, poorly. Hoping to get 18 in on Sunday.
This is a fantastic article. I’m actually pulling several quotes from it and using them for my wrestling team.
Why do some top juniors make it and others don't? The surprising answer
The junior ranks are overflowing with talent. But ask tour players about their own development and they say mindset is the difference maker

He ended up coming second with a drive of 407 yards. The winner hit 426 yards.
No wonder he wants to play LIV Golf. This shit would be so bad for your preparation in other parts of your golf game as the swing is nothing like what you play with on tour and given how uncontrollable it is, is not transferable. Alternatively it may force him to hurry the feck up on the golf course because they dont have 3 minutes between each swing to make a shot.
I genuinely dont understand the appeal behind it other than a dick measuring contest. The money is clearly not there and most golf fans I know don't care. Driving is arguably the most difficult part of the golf game but imo what Rory can do is infinitely more impressive.
God I love the pettiness of ogwr
LIV - “we have aligned with this Random tour in order to obtain world ranking points for our players and fecking over anybody that is a member of this tour in the process”
Ogwr - “the feck you are”
perhaps don’t pull this shit after you’ve tried to feck over the western world by artificially limiting oil exports to drive up demand. This will become political at some point.

Not real pettiness, just adhering to their bylaws. You just love to see it.
Well, there is a bit of pettiness which makes it all the more rich.
