Love to see him do well.
I want Garcia to haul himself up a bit, got an E/W bet on him.
Have you noticed how many in the last groups are Ping players?
God, they must be old

I heard if Louis wins, he's going to take a few years off and wait for the seniors tour.
In all seriousness.....Go Casey!

Just missed his birdie opportunity on the 1st. I hope the occasion and pressure doesn't get to him.
I like Casey, he's a good stocky and steady player. The way he stares after the ball from his tee shots is in a way a bit scary!!!

Ive got e/w money on westwood and stenson.
Cant see Louis hanging on today.
Am I the only person who doesnt particularly like Casey? I just find him very plastic and manufactured.
Being a brit I would like him to win over a foreigner of course but in terms of affection, it would be nothing compared to the feeling of a month ago when Graeme McDowell won.

Dropped shot at the 2nd - now 5 behind. Can't see him making up 5 unfortunately.

I'm with you Jon. Can't say I'm too keen on Westwood either. He's got an arrogance I don't like. I'd rather see Stenson or Kaymer win before either of them.

I like Stenson, always reckoned he has majors in him.
Westwood is a funny one, some people say he is a great fella but I have heard more bad than good.
The one that surprised me is Darren Clarke, I have been told by a few who have had close contact with him that he is a posterial orifice at the best of times, strange seeing as he would seem to be a top, top guy.

Agreed, Can't like Casey at all. It's that sh** eating grin he always seems to have that only seems to get worse the better he's played.
Don't think Oosty will get caught unless he has a major collapse.

E/W on both Casey and Dustin Johnson, come on lads.

Casey hasn't had a birdie for 14 holes.....just hit a great iron close though.

Finally, a birdie. If he can get within 3, there could be a match on.

I put £5 on Kaymer last night at 14/1. Hope he puts a charge in.

Always quite liked Casey, understand why he can come across as arrogant but sometimes you need that.
Never been a Westwood fan, carries an air of 'I'm owed a big one' but it has to be earned. Like Monty I don't think it'll ever happen for him, Westy needs to shed some weight again and doesn't chip well enough or hole enough putts which on a windy links is crucial.

Funny you mention his weight, I know I cant exactly talk but he has piled a bit on again.

Just don't understand why a professional sportsman wouldn't look after their physical condition better into their late 30's when they have to be on their feet 5 hours at a time and under a lot of emotional stress. I thought Tiger changed all that attitude 10 years ago. All the good young pros are in the gym daily these days. Westy obviously feels he doesn't need to. Why not? He did get fitter 2 years ago but has gone all portly again.

Even darts players and snooker players have a fitness routine now to some extent, not all, but many do.
Problem is, some people like the good life and like the grub that goes with it and when you have the likes of Westwoods money, you aint going to starve.
Ive always struggled with my weight and unfortunately, since giving up golf I have gone back to playing competitive pool and therefore I spend a lot of time in pubs, 3 times out of 4 Im not driving, and therefore I am on the guinness a bit too much.
Have cut a deal with wife whereby I have to lose x-amount of weight before I can get a nice shiny new set of irons!

I dont think Westwoods physical stature has stopped him winning the majors recently. If it was a hinderence he wouldn't constantly be beating 99% of the field.
It's really fine lines and a touch of luck.
