Think it’s going to rain in the afternoon. Early morning looks okish.Currently :
-4 leading
+11 last
70 & ties would be at +1
Better or worse scoring to come tomorrow?
I’ll go with probably around the same.
The Open 2025.
- Thread starter Thor
- Start date

It’s such a shame we can’t have the Open radio match the pictures we are seeing
Anything better than listening to Riley , Coltart and McGinley

I thought the idea of links golf was to try and plot your way around and avoid the bunkers? These lads seem to be in them every hole!

McIlroy’s group are looking at nearly six hours. 4 hours 45 minutes through 14 is ridiculous.

Coverage been crap like commentary team must be on a different planet
It’s absolutely obvious that conditions are absolutely the worst they’ve been all day for the last hour and a half
Even when it was raining earlier the wind wasn’t really there and it lasted about 30 mins or something

Few players could play their way out of it with this wind now….

It’s causing a bit of an issue at the moment - Rose doing well
No idea what BDC is trying but trying to smash high lofted irons is not the way to go

Rose has been standing over his ball for about a minute waiting on the wind dying down.

Rose is such a class act. He just works hard, does the basics very well, rarely let's his head drop, etc. It is almost like every aspect of his game could be ranked as 8/10.
I hope he can manage a second major.

McGinley is insufferable, just makes up any old rubbish as if he is some kind of expert and the rest of the commentary team just let him get on with it. AFAIK he hasn't coached anyone on tour? At least Faldo has good swing knowledge.

A shade under 5 hours 55 minutes for McIlroy’s group. I know they’re handsomely paid, but I still have massive respect for anyone who can maintain that level of concentration on a golf course for nearly six hours.
I’d have been off down the pub at the turn.

Would still like to know the R&A target time

Not sure they have a target time as such

How do you suggest they monitor and judge pace of play then?
Or maybe they dont’t…..

Never seem to do - weather factors into it a lot , all about keeping up with the group in front
Doesn’t seem great - players taking too long over each shot
