ROYAL PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland - Another poor start by Rory McIlroy at a major championship on Thursday hardly shocked some former players who used the words “choke” and “inexcusable” to describe the Northern Irishman’s performance in the British Open first round on Thursday.
McIlroy’s eight-over-par 79 included a quadruple-bogey at the first hole at Royal Portrush in McIlroy’s home country. He backed up his words by noting that McIlroy’s first-round average in his previous 18 majors had been 72.1 strokes, 1.7 strokes worse than the second and third rounds, and 3.1 shots worse than the final round.“He has had historically just a bad run of first rounds. He consistently gets off to a bad start and then ... when the pressure is gone, all that talent arises and then he plays a beautiful second or third or fourth round.

Shocking New Epstein Video Shows Pictures Moving All On Their OwnNEW YORK—In an astonishing finding that sheds light on the character of the president, a shocking new video of Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump reportedly shows entirely still pictures leaping to life and moving of their own accord. “It’s alarming, to say the least, to see individual pictures—fully inert ones, mind you—springing into action on your screen in continuous motion as if by witchcraft,” said media analyst Peter Moore of the unsettling imagery, speculating that the photos had either been forced into movement by an unimaginable technology from the distant future or else, quite possibly, enchanted by a kind of sorcery that trapped the two men’s souls inside an endless loop of perpetual animation. “To put it bluntly, it’s as if the figures in this footage have traveled from 1992 into the very present to dance and converse for our amusement. The effect is absolutely breathtaking, if not a bit uncanny. Truly, it must be seen to be believed.” Moore added that he had unfortunately been unable to interview these past forms of Epstein and Trump by shaking his monitor or shouting at their past forms for comment.
