Can't see Spieth finishing any worse than -11 after today's round, will be interesting to see how close the rest can get to him.

It's a pity golf is not on BBC, melodramatic Murray is doing my head in.

That little chipped divot that Koepka left, that got in Kuchar's way...
Surely Koepka or his caddie should have tidied that up after his shot.
I notice That Kuchar tapped it down after he played

I stated it was good for him did i not?
Simply tempered that with some realism. I do apologise for not having a party in his honour......
You must have been distraught with his lack of delight during the interview

Going by some of the posts on here yesterday McIlroy was supposed to be back. What's happened?

Thunder an lightning an lashing here about 15 miles away. Even losing the sky signal. Depending on which way it's going they mightn't be out much longer

I'm pretty sure you know - he is having an up and down day , some great shots and birdies but some poor shots and being punished. Not sure what "McIlroy is back" is supposed to mean - I didn't think he went away anywhere.
Still plenty of holes in this comp yet to be writing him or many number off just yet.

What I meant was he was back to his best apparently as he'd been so poor lately. I thought it was a little premature yesterday.
You still think he'll win the open?

Yesterday he was swinging at the level of his best same again early holes today - a few times today and yesterday he seems to be going for it a bit too much.
But I do see that when he is playing well you don't seem to post - he hits a few bogeys and you seem to appear.
Do I think he will win - he needs to get a move on and have a fantastic finish to give himself a chance. But I think it's quite clear that all the talk of McIlroy being on the way down was a touch premature and he isn't far away from dominating comps again including majors. I know that will be disappointing for some

I post when I think someone has had a good round, not just a few holes.
My comment today was because yesterday he looked like he was swinging well hence the many excited posts from people. He also started well today. I thought he'd cut through the field today until he had a few back to back bogeys.
Is that OK with you?

I'm a big Mcilroy fan now but he has to stop making ridiculous mistakes. He hits an iron on 10, i presume to stay short of the bunkers, and the blasts it into it. Spieth hit 3 wood straight over it. I'm sorry but that's 18 handicapper stuff. If your going to lay up short, bloody well do it!!

Not at all,I am old school and don't expect anything other than quiet satisfaction with a cracking performance like that.

Can't see past Spieth on this type of form, playing smart steady golf.

Looking like a 2 horse race tomorrow unless this rain brings Spieth and Kooch back to the pack....

Just get the feeling Speith has been cruising today and Kooch has been hanging in there a bit. Unless Speith's level drops can't see him losing it.

He's been immaculate off the tee, always choosing the right club and any misses have been in the right place to miss.

Yep they have just given him the trophy on the 16th green before he and others have even finished the third round - they have cancelled the round that was planned tomorrow
