What a great last few hours that was. There’s another thread going about whether you watch golf, I reckon a few would change their answers, including me, if we had a bit more variety like this open has give us so far. Driver into a par 3, madness!

Who was it that said that Americans wouldn't feature on the leader board?

Enjoyed that last night, a proper test of golf.
The conditions should be better for the later starters today if the forecast is right, although nothing like yesterday.
I’m not sure who will win today, would like Rose to get over the line, would be a great winner.
If an American wins, I’d like Horshel to get the job done.

Based on the history of the tournament, a fool

With the changes made by England Golf in recent years, why didn't he just swallow his pride, move forward and play off the red tees.

The tees were fine for the early starters, changing weather conditions disadvantaged those going out later.

If he wants weather parity for all the contenders - well we know who he needs to reach out to…

I think that is pathetic from Lowry and it shows a complete lack of understanding about what makes links golf so great to watch.

Does anyone know how the final pairings are selected when players are on the same score?

So many players on -3.

 

[Imurg]

First in last out...

Is it on the order in which they finished, as in the time? I think it might be.

Bob Mc seems to have got in his head that the front 9 in this wind is impossible for a leftie. Others proving otherwise.

Moaning pros like he and Shane get my goat. Come on Justin or Dan!

How refreshing listening to Billy Horschels interview embracing the conditions and enjoying the challenges, stark contrast to Lowrys moaning.

 

[Depreston]

It did get absolutely stupid yesterday at points it was entertaining but the tees needed to be up on at least a couple of the par 4s

They’re the best in the world and couldn’t reach them in regulation

Ah classic convo in clubhouse someone shoots -3 to get top of the leaderboard and thinks it was alright

One lad shoots 6 over and he’s complaining

It’s human nature

Billy wouldn’t be saying that if he’d dropped back
