The Open Thread 2016

I disagree, Stenson could've easily choked today when was 2 behind but he never and seen it out. I hope he wins it.

I hope the weather isn't as bad as friday morning though, it was atrocious just along the coast where we were playing at Prestwick St Nicholas.

It's Saturday, the time to choke is back nine tomorrow when it's yours to lose.

I hope he doesn't but I just see Mickleson holding it together a bit more when the heat is really on.
 
Interestingly poised tomorrow. Needs the top two to make a bit of a mess of the front nine and struggle on the way home and someone to burst out of the pack but can't really see that happening. Beef to make a charge?

He could've choked this afternoon and hand it on a plate to Mickelson but he never. I think Stenson will see this out.
 
Why the heck are people talking about players "choking" and especially players like Stenson !! The guy can't be anymore relaxed when playing golf

Well if anyone can recognise choking, it's you, after all, you do watch and witness it first hand every season 😜

Stenson to win, and he's in my Fantasy League 😎🏌
 
That tee shot on the 17th from Stenson was as pure as you can get ! You can hear how crisp he hit it
 
Looking at todays scoring no-one either finished or on the course better than -3 currently which tells us its playing tough in the wind, reaffirms that's it's highly unlikely anyone is going to come from the field back into this tournament, Mickelson and Stenson I think will shoot around par/+1 given the pressure they're under - will be thinking defence as much as attack.
Just hoping DJ can get up a place to 7th to get me my stake back!
 
McIlroy with a very good front 9 - wind is starting to die down at the time the leaders tee off which is a shame

Shudda, cudda wudda. If Rory had the putter really hot then he might easily have turned at -7.

But that's golf - If is a little word but means such a lot.

Instead he squandered 3 chances that he ought to have made in all honesty :mmm:
