148th Open Championship

[ger147]

Class from Westwood, not lying to try and get a free drop.

I can think of a few players who would have been on their knees with any old club in their hands saying to the ref "I would hack it out like this so I'll have a free drop"...

Just going to say the same thing - many would have suggested they would have taken a shot at it , Mickleson for one - Westy showed the class and integrity we expect from the players

Certainly shows the integrity of Westwood.

 

[AmandaJR]

What's all this "so and so is in the house with that score"...repeatedly. It's the clubhouse! Are they trying to get down with the kids?!

 

[AmandaJR]

As for Westwood - I stopped dreaming about him winning a major a few years back but the dream is back on...come on Lee!

This already feels like a sunday back 9
Excellent stuff

The way Sky are covering you know when they suddenly go to a different player that isn’t in the challenging group or whose name isn’t Koepka they are about to hole their putt 😂

Starting to think that Koepka is your new Tiger 😆

 

[Pin-seeker]

Some big names at the top of that leaderboard.
Should make for good viewing tomorrow.

Although a little cheeky if not rude to the rules official regarding collecting the ball.

Cheeky I'd say, done with a smile

Machine Koepka displaying a few gremlins for a change

Was all done with a cheeky smile and a laugh 😆

It seems a few yanks have got a few tickets - a few of the moronic shouts are being yelled after Holmes finally hits his shot

I saw a cheeky smile when he was handed the ball, not before or when he asked. May well have been his intention but it didn't come across as that to me.

How good is Lowry playing - wonderful ball striking and the cloud are loving it. Happy to see slow coach drift away - someone timed him and he is taking a minute from the time he pulls a club out of the bag

 

[pokerjoke]

Shame Westwood has played himself out of it.
Would love Tommy or Lowry to win now.
Beware the big guy though if he starts sinking putts

 

[ger147]

Lowry in the zone, could take everyone bar Fleetwood out of contention by the end of today.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Looking forward to seeing Lowry and Fleetwood going head to head tomorrow. Promises to be a great tussle. Disappointed Westwood couldn't keep it going and would have liked Rose a couple of shots nearer but a great days viewing

He took 15 minutes to play a bunker shot ........... sorry, didnt realise HID had paused Sky Q while I ate my curry 👍

What an outstanding round from Lowry - brilliant , great forward step , that’s such an impressive round of golf

God if only there was some way to mute McGinley - such a depressing person on the mic , you would have though Lowry struggled with a 1 over round
