Will you be taking your moby to The Open this year ?

[bobmac]

So the rules have changed.
You can now take your mobile phone into The Open.
But...

• You're still not allowed to take photos or video of the action
• You're only supposed to make and take calls in the tented area and food sections
• And pigs might fly

Can you see this being a problem with phones ringing and people taking pictures during play?

I would have maintained the ban.

One of the main reasons i go is i can be off the radar for 4 days! They are bloody ruining the whole experience! The missus will be able to contact me now :blah:

 

[Hobbit]

Yes, assuming the mum-in-law lasts that long. If she's shuffled off her mortal coil it will get left in the car.

Prior to m-i-l taking ill my phone would often be left at home.

Just because you can take it doesn't mean you have to. The advantages of airplane/offline mode :thup:

Purely a money making exercise so they can sell apps to those who go

'Woods has this for an eagle which will leave him one behind Westwood'
Tra la la tra la la

'Wait something has disturbed him'

'Hi ya mate, you'll never guess where I am, only the phooking Open, and you'll never guess who is only phooking ten feet away putting for an eagle'
