dave_binos Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Rory could do with Wyndham Clark’s caddie to give him a few readings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 I would find it hard not to say "fucking hit it" if someone I played with had so many waggles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raidernation Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Where's the "weather"? Nothing against Harman but if this keeps up he could hit putter off every tee tomorrow. I want some excitement! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Can't get enthused by The Harminator winning The Open, would love to see Hovland, Rahm or Tommy shoot the lights out and nick it, but it might be a decent payday tomorrow for me. Just a couple of quid on each mind you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 It needed a couple of the later starters to get up to 7 or 8 under and put some pressure on Harman but none of them could get past -6. Unless he has a horror show on the 17th or 18th he's going to be miles clear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could just get Brian Harman and the Old Firm to fcuk, would be exciting. Edited July 22, 2023 by pozbaird 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Paul Lawrie started 10 back from van de Velde when he won at Carnoustie, but I can't see anyone doing that tomorrow. Harman is certainly reducing the number of folk who have any chance of winning 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halbeath Raith Rover Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Really don't like that the ballot for next year is about to close. I loved that you could decide to go on the spur of the moment, or wait and see what the weather was like before deciding which day to go. That and no re entry at some courses have put me off going. When conditions were wet, being able to leave and get in to a pub or cafe for a bit was a godsend. Seems like unecessary greed from the organisers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Living in Fife I've always gone to the St Andrews opens and would try and go to Carnoustie and Muirfield as well. Entered the ballot for St Andrews last year but didn't get a ticket. The thought that my being able to attend another open is basically just a game of chance now is pretty galling. Unfortunately though, restricting supply increases demand so you can see why they've done it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Rory declined to do any media at all after today's round, instead heading straight to the putting green as we've already seen on tv. For context, Matsuyama has refused to speak to the Japanese media after all three rounds so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like there to be a better balance, at least on one of the days, eg 50% of the tickets for Thursday or Friday reserved for sale to "locals". I appreciate logistically at an event of this size, it's now pretty difficult to have a full walk-up crowd 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harman unsurprisingly leads the field in strokes gained for putting at +8.73 against the field. Rory is ranked 111th at -1.41. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
