Yeah what do we call it?

They still call it the British Open when they play it in Scotland which isn’t British and there’s already a Scottish open.

Is there a Northern Ireland open? I don’t know if anyone actually knows. Cuz now it’s not in Britain or in England, but if they don’t have a northern Irish open that technically they could call it the United Kingdom open right?

They’re already is an Irish open, but of course that is neither British or in England or part of the United Kingdom

The more I think about it the more I even think you can call it the British Open. Britain is just a bastardization of the name of the people that come from Brittany, not spears, but the northern part of France. And no one’s going to want to play in the French Open because one it’s French and because two they already have a tennis tournament named for that.

Truly the britons were defeated by the Normans anyway over a thousand years ago to establish England but I don’t think we can call it the Norman open without getting that cantankerous old guy from Australia all ticked off because that guy has a major problem with the PGA anyway so we probably don’t want to poke that crocodile

Way more thought into this than I anticipated and I really just wanted to watch golf…

I’m just getting started! You can’t really call him the Normans either because that’s just a shortened version of the people from Normandy also from North France so clearly you cannot choose from the cup in front of you…

Scheffler is a machine. He might end up winning by 5+

Also Britain consist of England, Scotland, Whales and Northern Ireland.

To be pedantic its actually Scotland England and Wales. Add the north of Ireland and you have the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

My bad, I thought that was Great Britain, where just Britain is used as a synonym of the UK which includes Northern Ireland.

Scottie Scheffler is the most dominant athlete in all of men’s pro sports. He is a robot he has all the shots. If he putts average he will win almost every week.

No one has this level of mental toughness.

Scotty is the least animated golfer out there, and he’s an assassin on the greens.
