Had a drive down the M1 and the signposts are already up from junction 14 to direct you Woburn. Didn't see anything from junction 13 though.
 
Has the forecast changed? Seems to be pretty clear for Milton Keynes till Sunday on the BBC weather app.

Ye but I herd that the course is terrible at draining so just interested in how it will cope with what its already had. With all the foot traffic and so on.

It's fine at the moment and no further rain to come

Marquess is the best draining of all the courses
 
Does anyone else think it's pretty bad that Justin Rose is supposed to be one of the 4 'sponsoring' this event, but he isn't even playing? Pretty poor if you ask me

I think he stated early on that he wouldn't be able to make this one
 
Coz he's playing Lake Nona with his mates!

It's a real shame

Ah right didn't know that - thought there might have been something else

It is a shame - but the ET just doesn't have the pull for the players now - £3mil prize fund is pennies to them.
 
I will be there carrying a scoreboard on Thursday, Friday and Sunday. Out with one of the last groups tomorrow, so a bit a a lie in.
