Why tee height might decide the 2024 Open Championship winner

Why tee height might decide the 2024 Open Championship winner

Tee height will be a key factor in determining the winner of the 2024 Open Championship. The R&A have announced that the tees at Royal Portrush will be raised for the tournament, which could make it more difficult for players to score.

The change in tee height is designed to make the course more challenging and to prevent players from hitting the ball too far. The R&A believe that this will lead to a more exciting and competitive tournament.

However, some players are concerned that the raised tees will make the course too difficult. They argue that it will make it harder to hit the ball close to the hole, and that it will lead to more bogeys and double bogeys.

The debate over tee height is likely to continue in the lead-up to the 2024 Open Championship. The R&A will be hoping that the changes they have made will lead to a more exciting and challenging tournament, but some players will be hoping that the tees are not raised too high.

What to watch in Round 2: Will Royal Troon get any easier? Can Daniel Brown keep it up?

Royal Troon lived up to its reputation as a tough test of golf on Thursday, with 19 players finishing below 70 and just seven breaking 70.

Defending champion Cameron Smith shot a 1-over 72 to sit six shots behind overnight leader Viktor Hovland, while Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm also struggled to get going.

Can anyone tame Royal Troon in Round 2? And can Daniel Brown, the first amateur to lead The Open after the first round since 1947, keep it up?

England’s Brown takes Open lead in major debut

England’s Connor Brown took a one-stroke lead in the Open at Royal Portrush after a stunning first round.

The 23-year-old, who is making his major debut, carded a six-under-par 65 to leave him one ahead of American Xander Schauffele.

Brown birdied the third, fifth, ninth, 10th, 12th and 16th holes and is the youngest player to lead The Open after the first round since Rory McIlroy in 2010.

Schauffele, the world number 10, matched Brown’s score with six birdies of his own, but he also dropped a shot on the 18th.

Shane Lowry, who is seeking to become the first Irish winner of the Open since 1947, is among a group of eight players tied for third on four under par.

Tommy Fleetwood’s easy drill for maintaining swing balance

**Tommy Fleetwood’s Swing Balance Drill**

European Tour star Tommy Fleetwood has revealed a simple drill he uses to maintain swing balance. The drill involves hitting a series of shots with a weight attached to the end of the club. Fleetwood believes this helps to strengthen the muscles responsible for keeping the clubhead square throughout the swing.

To perform the drill, simply attach a weight to the end of your club and hit a series of shots. Start with a light weight and gradually increase the weight as you become more comfortable. Fleetwood recommends hitting 10-15 shots with the weight each time you practice.

This drill is a great way to improve swing balance and consistency. It can also help to strengthen the muscles responsible for controlling the clubface, which can lead to more accurate shots.
