Rex: 我认为英国公开赛资格赛有很多吸引人的故事,比如选手为了参加比赛而努力,以及比赛对他们的意义。我支持设立一个类似于高尔夫最长一日2.0的英国公开赛资格赛,因为这能为锦标赛增添风采。从达拉斯到英国参加资格赛对LIV选手来说并不容易,但他们还是努力争取,这表明他们非常重视英国公开赛。Lee Westwood等人参加资格赛,表明他们非常重视英国公开赛。R&A增加资格赛是为了给球迷提供更多现场高尔夫体验。英国公开赛周一资格赛的参赛选手应该从之前资格赛的候补名单中选拔,不应该允许选手两次参加英国公开赛的资格赛。 Lab: 我认为美国高尔夫协会在资格赛名额分配上做得更好,能根据场地实力分散人才。英国公开赛资格赛能为锦标赛增添风采,因为黑马选手可能脱颖而出。参加LIV巡回赛的选手赢得英国公开赛资格赛,表明他们仍然渴望参加顶级赛事。Lee Westwood在2022年后没有参加过大型锦标赛,最近状态有所回升,他在资格赛中表现出色,考虑到他之前的状态,这令人印象深刻。英国公开赛对老将比较友好,Lee Westwood经验丰富,有可能在英国公开赛上取得好成绩。R&A宣布将在英国公开赛周一举行一场18洞的资格赛,这种方式是否比之前的资格赛更容易?如果选手知道自己有机会参加周一的资格赛,他们可能就不会参加之前的资格赛,这会减少精彩的故事。从候补名单中选拔周一资格赛的选手是最公平的方式。
