The Open regional qualifying

[Crazyface]

Nothing near me sadly. I used to go and watch at Prestbury till the monsoon day, and they've never hosted since.

If he doesn't qualify he's still got QPR to fall back on.......

I wonder if he’ll drive to the Open the day before in case he gets in.

Do many people generally go and watch the qualifiers? I'm near Barassie and wouldn't mind nipping down to watch some of it.

No
Full of Mars Bar salesmen and wannabee amateurs who don't have a clue of the standard required.
Along with a few 48 year old Pros who once qualified for a European Tour event.

Finch is at Caldy if you want to watch a 'celebrity'

Jimmy Bullard playing at Rochester & Cobham.

 

[Bazz]

Only one score under par at Enville so far, the highest score being 90. Poor guy.

Alex Elliot from YouTube shot 78 there .

Another poor guy shot 104 at Hesketh! +2 leading at the moment - I'm guessing it's pretty windy there.

Just had a look - gusting up to 39mph in Southport atm.

From the 5th to the 7th, the player who scored 104 went 11, 8, 10!

Haven’t we all

 

[HampshireHog]

Only 2 under par so far at our place, a 4 under 66 is very impressive.

If that is North Hants, our assistant pro is playing there - James Cooper. Got through to final qualifying last year at B&B and was level after the 2 rounds but not quite good enough on the day.

Looks like Matt Fryer was there, tied 10th when the top 9 go through. What a shame!

 

[evemccc]

English amateur - and brother of (and caddie to) Tyler Weaver (a) who qualified for the US Open at Oakmont - also got through at Gog Magog, to Final Qualifying

Fair play for posting the score

 

[evemccc]

Any word of Peter Finch, Shiels and Jimmy Bullard?

 

[Imurg]

PF teed off at 12.50 at Caldy
JB need off at 12.09 at Rochester
Can't pin RS down yet...

 

[TigerTime]

Don't think Shiels is trying, thankfully. Waste of a spot otherwise.

 

[simsini]

Rumour has it Shiels turned up and saw spectators standing 20 yards to the left of the fairway. He walked off the course as he didn't want to kill anybody.
