Bendigo golfer Lucas Herbert leads the British Open after a second-round 62 at Royal Birkdale that equalled the lowest round in major championship annals.
In the Rules of Golf, Rule 8.1 states that a player is prohibited from improving the “conditions affecting the stroke.” That includes the player’s lie, the area of his intended stance, the area of the player’s intended swing and the player’s line of play.
Days after Nick Faldo said he had “zero clue of strategy,” Bryson DeChambeau opened with a three-under 67 at Royal Birkdale, using the word “strategy” three times in his post-round interview.
Nick Faldo does not grace our television sets as often as he used to, but that is not going to stop him from absolutely firing off some takes when he gets the opportunity.
