Ricoh Women's British Open

The best comment of the day so far was along the lines of....

"I can just see Suzann Pettersen taking another sip of hot chocolate and cackling"

Weather has really changed. When Catriona Matthew finished +4 I thought she had missed the cut by at least two shots but looks like the +4s might get in now....
 
Dame Laura's round took nigh on 5hrs 25 mins, looked slightly miffed. Christine Kim seems like a right character, looked for her on twitter but couldn't find an account. That reaction about half an hour ago where she just laughed at her shot sums up a lot of my playing tendencies!
 
Melissa Reid's round today has shot her up the leaderboard!

Quite a few big names look like missing the cut!

Still hoping Ko can push on and win it.
 
Melissa Reid was in the groove on the practice ground.
Lots of 'flaffing around' by the players during the squalls, one girl looked like she was going skiing.

Not easy conditions but lots of them messing up downwind.......I watched 20+ players going through the 7th green and not one was past the pin with their approach, easiest option.
 
Thought the BBC coverage was great today (Saturday) but it would have been nice to see the last couple of putts. Hope they stay on air until the tournament finishes tomorrow, even if it does slightly delay their schedule.

P.S. Are the BBC retaining the Womens British Open, or has that been nabbed by Sky as well? :rolleyes:

I meant to watch her for a few holes, wish I had
Instead I watched Florentenya Parker and Charlie Hull both looked impressive.
I was surprised how many spotty teenage boys were watching Charlie.:o

Well if they don't cover it all to a finish I hope they lose it also, nothing worse than watching something and there not prepared to delay other programmes to show its conclusion, a bit like ripping out the last page of a book!
