147th Open Championship

McIlroy again as he did at the Masters looks to have a very rushed rhythm.  Maybe he needs a caddy who isn`t his pal  and who reminds him he doesn`t need to take on every high risk shot, especially early in a round where many players are struggling.

Looking at that Yank-dominated scoreboard is not good reading.

Disappointed they didn't make the course tougher in terms of the rough - the last day has been the only real test.

I remember all the complaints in 1999 that the rough was so bad that it was effectively unplayable. 

Maybe don't make it like that again but certainly it could have been tougher regarding the rough.

All it needed was the wind- we're seeing it today. If they'd set it up much tougher and the wind blew you'd have  everyone moaning like 1999.

Tiger starting a charge. Playing very well so far. Solid and no mistakes

Did he win that year? Don’t think it’s been mentioned

A feature of his play this season is to get himself into contention before stuttering. It'll be interesting to see what he does now. Likely to be just one behind in a minute.

Woods creeping up on Speith and Xander could make things interesting. 

Talking of Xander he got very lucky there thought that ball was going to end up back in the bunker.

Agreed.

[peasy23]

Speith having an absolute brain fart.

[Ro Sham Bo]

Spieth having his customary mid round crisis.

[Fuctifano]

Tiger now the bookies favourite.

[doulikefish]

Get speith on the clock the slow p***k

[Ro Sham Bo]

Shauffele and Spieth are certainly making it interesting.

Weather conditions have spiced this final round up a treat.

[lichtie23]

Eddie Pepperell better stay loose. His score looks better by the minute

[Ro Sham Bo]

Wind dropping now but even so it's going to be hard for these guys to reverse their fortunes now. Anybody's guess what will happen now.

[Jdog]

I've bet Woods, Mon Tiger!

[DeeTillEhDeh]

If Woods wins it will be one amazing comeback.
