G ,well done


the top 10 is void of big names, ..not Royal Liverpool's history.


J Rahm +3, DJ +3
Justin 'ive fallen and i cant get up ' Thomas- +11 (82).........had a NINE @ 18 , this after a 341 yd drive on the fairway ..... .............humbling game

the 18th with OB all down the RS punished a few more:
Fowler, Mickelson - snowmen, 8

weather looks better for the morning groups tomorrow---can the 2 euro giants shoot low? Rahm, Rory u are up
Thomas not being able to play grab ass with Tiger probably taking its toll with his game.

Did Harman play from the forward tees?...71-71 on the weekend maybe enough to crown him "Champion Golfer of the year '


Moving Day tomorrow, should have more than a few benign pin placements

History for Jon Rahm.
He becomes the first player to break 65 at Hoylake in an Open Championship!

He's in the mix

Championship Sunday :)

That was damn impressive by the diminutive Harman. + 2 early and paired with the local favorite Fleetwood. Fuckin battled and 69 . Field needs his help . Right behind him are 2 names that can go low Young, Rahm -both r fearless . Rahm pulled out driver all day yesterday, lol. Gotta go flag hunting, Young tee to green has been fantastic

Harman has been so cool post-round interviews. His word; ' im just staying present...'

the final 3 holes are not really punitive unless the wind factors in late. 18 is a par 5 with OB down the RS- he can aim way left and play it like a par 6 if he has a 2 shot lead . 17 is a wedge -with no wind , a real poor tee-shot is needed to blow that hole

weather:

'Outbreaks of rain or drizzle for the final day of The Open Championship, with brief drier spells possible in the morning. Winds are set to be variable, mainly coming from the W or SW, then switching to N or NE.
High: High: 18°C (64°F). Low: 13°C (55°F).
Winds: W or SW, becoming W 11-15 mph gusting at 18-21 mph. Developing to W 11-15 mph with gusts at 18- 21 mph, becoming Variable 5-10 for a time, then N or NE 13- 15 mph gust 17-20 mph at the end of the round.'

two 67's already posted today, ..its gettable
