    Iona you have the best content online anywhere! Even the pros playing the open would get something from your videos! I am lucky to have found your channel here in America!⛳️❤️

      Absolutely buddy. Iona is a total gem, her content is always a brilliant watch. If you haven’t done so check out the one she did with Butch Harmon.

    Played Royal Troon last year absolutely blown away by everything the welcome, the clubhouse the food and of obviously the course. Managed a par on the postage stamp so came away happy

    One of my all time favourite golf videos, informative but fun. Loved it!

    This video will make watching the players deal the Postage Stamp all that more interesting. That little green is a champion of the horrors that can befall those who make a miscue. Thank you for providing the insights. Great video!

    This and the three other toughest holes coverage is amazing. Kieron and yourself showcase it so well. It’s like being there. Thank you!

    Spot on Iona -- an Open without weather is not an OPEN. Sky Sports should make your Royal Troon preview video part of their pre-tournament programming. Fantastic insights from a fantastic presenter. Thank you Iona.

    Safe to say there will be countless pro golfers that would do anything to have that result from the Coffin.
    Very well done Joan.

    Absolutely solid video again Iona! Love your content and this series!
    I do have to say, something super random, I couldn't help but notice your rangefinder case wide open as you were walking from the teebox 😂. I just wanted to be like "nooo your rangefinder!!"

    Great vid and great bunker shot. Never a good sign when there's a little staircase in a bunker 🤣. Great month of golf coming up with the Evian, the Open Championship and the Olympics. Can't wait. Thanks as always.

    Troon is amazing. Double bogeyed the 8th when i played this past June.

  • @brianclark3503
    @brianclark3503 Před 15 dny

    A 71 year old Gene Sarazen aced the Postage Stamp in 1973. Walked up and covered the hole with his cap. Love a short hole, like the 17th at Royal Liverpool last year. Great segment, Iona. Looking forward to the tournament later next week!

    The coffin bunker shot👏as a high handicap player I’m picking the ball up and taking a two shot penalty or I’d be in there all day.

    I'm really looking forward to watching The Open Championship. Even though the time difference from Hawaii is 12 hours, I think I'll catch most of it live 😅
    I watched this segment on the full video, and it was great; especially the chip in birdie on the 18th. You both played well 👍🏽

  • @michaelbowers6904

    Very few courses I’ve played have a really good short par 3- shame as they are a real challenge. Lovely video 👍

    I have to say Iona yours is the best content, i played royal Troon a long time ago and I thought I done really well , well until I got to this hole where the coffin got me and took 4 to get out 😂

  • @markdonnelly9117
    @markdonnelly9117 Před 15 dny

    Heading to Troon this year , heading over from Ireland and as I work as a postman guess the 8th is the only place for me to set up for the week 😂. Love the videos Iona 👌

  • @QGolfVlog

    My one time I hit to the bunker on the right. Two to get out and two putts makes double bogey. The course was magnificent.

    What a bunker shot

  • @flashwhite
    @flashwhite Před 15 dny

    It’s amazing at that distance it should be straight forward and would be if there were no bunkers at all. Put some bunkers in sight and suddenly the target area gets almost claustrophobic and feels well, just like a postage stamp 😂. If you want it on hard mode add in hundreds of people watching during a major. Well played to both of you.

    People from overseas dont get the real feeling of the weather changes that happen very quickly when playing golf in Scotland (wind speed,wind direction,temperature changes etc).
    That all adds to the drama of links golf!
