The Open Championship Thread **May have spoilers**

So they can't hear a nearby Marshall but they will hear a player from 250-300 yards away?

My point being, the signalling from the marshall is only indicating the direction of the ball, not if it poses a threat to the people lining the fairways.

A shout of fore indicates to the crowd that they may be in some danger.

How many times have you been stood on your own course and heard a shout of fore from several holes away IE Over 300 yards?

Whenever I hear a shout of fore I would always just cover my head and be aware that a ball maybe landing near someone and yes can easily hear from 300 yards
 
Anyone else think Mark James is a complete knob!?

"It's in South Wales, if you don't know where South Wales is don't go"

He came out with something else derogatory earlier on that annoyed me but can't remember exactly what he said.
 
Possibly the reason was he was on Phils line so to keep the pace of play going and not to move his marker to the side and back decided to get out of Phils way? We've All experienced what Ernie has done by saying I'll get out of your way............ If he had moved his marker let phil played, Ernie would only be +1. An example of how keeping pace going is counter productive. IMO

I dont think it had anything to do with the pace of play

He was already stewing from an offline tee shot, his 2nd going into rough, 3rd and 4th not much better, and i think it was just a moment of madness personally

It was a lack of concentration from him IMO

Totally agree

I bet the organisers love that, him telling people not to go. Arrogant tail end.

The man is a fud of the highest order at the best of times but to say that sums him up.

Another knob end that somehow manages to get work form the BBC/TV Companies. There's a fair few of them across the sports.
