YOU'D BETTER KNOW
------------------------------------------------------------
Star steps away. Lexi Thompson has withdrawn (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/25/lexi-thompson-withdraws-from-womens-british-open-will-take-some-time-to-work-on-myself/) from the 2018 Women’s British Open, saying Wednesday “I need to take some time to work on myself.”
Familiar faces. Brandel Chamblee and Gary Koch have qualified for the Senior British Open (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/24/the-forecaddie-brandel-chamblee-gary-koch-qualify-for-senior-open/) . Well done, gentlemen.
Who ya got? Our expert picks for winners, sleepers and golfers to avoid for your fantasy picks at the Canadian Open (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/25/fantasy-golf-expert-picks-2018-rbc-canadian-open/) .
On the bright side. Tiger Woods may not have won the Open Championship, but he didn't leave Europe completely empty-handed (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/22/tiger-woods-sneaks-into-world-top-50-earns-wgc-bridgestone-invitational-spot/) .

** IN THE MAG
------------------------------------------------------------
Molinari's Masterpiece. This month's print magazine features insider reporting on Francesco Molinari's win at Carnoustie, a 360-degree look at all things caddying and advice for bridging the gaps in your wedges.

** DID YOU SEE THAT?
------------------------------------------------------------
Steady, Eddie. While shooting a 67 on an Open Championship Sunday at Carnoustie, Eddie Pepperell looked pretty good for a guy who later said he was "a little hungover." (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/22/eddie-pepperell-on-sunday-67-at-british-open-i-was-a-little-hungover/)

** RANK 'EM
------------------------------------------------------------
This week’s rankings: Looking back on the five main things we learned at the 2018 British Open, courtesy of Golfweek's Geoff Shackelford.
5. Woods is rounding into his old self. No, he’s not 2000 Tiger. But he's starting to like a lot more like the guy we used to know.
4. Europe overjoyed to have Molinari win. The crowds were obviously rooting for Woods, but Molinari had strong backing here as a predominantly European Tour player.
3. 11 years too long to wait to return to Carnoustie. Getting back by 2025 would be ideal.
2. Major (season) changes. When the Claret Jug is raised on July 22, 2019, the world will say goodbye to the first British Open played in Northern Ireland since 1951. But that's not all (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/24/5-things-we-learned-from-the-2018-british-open/5/) .

1. Tough act to follow. While a Molinari win might be hard to list with with 1960 at Cherry Hills or the 1986 Masters, Carnoustie gave us a clash of golf’s micro-generations and intrigue each of the four days. Good luck topping that, PGA Championship.​

** SCORECARD
------------------------------------------------------------
12. ​As in, spots on the USA Ryder Cup team. Following another stellar showing this past week, has Tiger earned one yet? Not quite, according to team captain Jim Furyk (https://golfweek.com/2018/07/23/furyk-not-ready-to-give-tiger-woods-playing-spot-on-u-s-ryder-cup-team/) .
