Favorites for the Open championship

[uncboy10]

There are a few golfers out there that appear to be absolutely dialed in for this round thus far . .

Yep. Tiger better keep banging in putts because the lead could be at -10 by the end of the day

What were those tape strips on Tiger's neck yesterday . . were those heat strips of some sort . . ?

Kinesiology tape. Helps hold muscles in place. He said he slept funny and had some tightness in his neck, and that the tape helps to stabilize.

"Tiger Woods putting for eagle to take the outright lead"

I agree . . Speith, Fleetwood, Chappell, Woods, Fowler are on . .

Tiger atop the leaderboard now . . dayum he is having one helluva rd.

Thanks . . I was unable to watch much of the Open yesterday, and prolly missed them talking about it.

I'm watching some folks put on a serious display of excellent golf today . .

Tiger has another look at birdie on 15. Would be a huge make, lots of guys will drop strokes on the last 3 or 4 holes, so anything under par is a big bonus.

I was hoping that he'd knock that one down . . watched him walk off the green and you can tell how much confidence he is playing with in his strut.

 

[BillyL]

Dayum nice round by the Tiger today . . tomorrow gonna be fun.

 

[uncboy10]

Huge for tiger to save par on 18.

Pretty sure taking his hat off to shake hands is his least favorite part of a round nowadays... lol not much hair left up top for the old man

He was very lucky on that 18th tee . .

As long as all those other leaders heading into today don’t shoot 6, 7 under; and Tiger can stay within a few strokes.... Sunday could be interesting.

If he could come out tomorrow and birdie the first two holes, there will be some tight buttholes on the tee box behind him.

 

[TarHeelMark]

Spieth is en fuego.

If he could come out tomorrow and birdie the first two holes, there will be some tight buttholes on the tee box behind him.

Yeah, if he can at least be in one of the last few groups, and start strong...

It looks like too many good scores are gonna be carded today, so hopefully he won’t fall too many strokes back.

Schauffele came within a couple of inches of tying Jordan Speith for the lead . .

 

[TarHeelMark]

12 guys within four strokes; and potential bad weather tomorrow. Should be fun.

Conditions ideal today for scoring ......Sunday??? Could be a very different story with a pack of players all within a realistic shot at the Jug including the Cablanasian, Gonna be a fun Sunday

The "cablanasian" crap is just stupid. Just FYI

 

[uncboy10]

Helluva 2nd shot from Tiger on #1.

 

[uncboy10]

Tiger @ -7 now, while the leaders are struggling behind him.

this is nuts.

Tiger @ -7 now, while the leaders are struggling behind him.

this is nuts.

He's going to be just 1 back in a few seconds . . Leaders just took a bogey apiece.

This is gonna be fun . . ! Keep it rolling, Tiger.

 

[uncboy10]

Tiger now one back. Looks like he is confident and in control

I'm starting to believe he is going to win this golf tournament.

Admittedly, I have not watched as much golf of late in the week to week tour . . . this is the first time that I've seen the ball tracker(which I truly love seeing on display) give the 'apex' measurement off the tee . . . I kinda like that feature.

 

[BillyL]

Jordan is having another difficult hole . . good news for the man that is on his 'Sunday Prowl' . .

 

[uncboy10]

Jordan is having another difficult hole . . good news for the man that is on his 'Sunday Prowl' . .

Yep. Jordan looks like he is having another Sunday breakdown.

Tiger got unlucky with that last shot. Looked like a good ball for most of the flight, but on the tracker it seemed to get pushed to the right at the last second. Probably caught a nasty gust of wind.

 

[TarHeelMark]

I'm starting to believe he is going to win this golf tournament.

Would be a helluva story, wouldn’t it?

 

[uncboy10]

Would be a helluva story, wouldn’t it?

It would be incredible. I just wish he was in the last group...

 

[BillyL]

Speith is slowly unraveling . . unlike that great round he had Saturday.

 

[BillyL]

Tiger didn't need that . . dayum.

 

[uncboy10]

Tiger now tied for the lead, Spieth makes double bogey.

 

[uncboy10]

Tiger didn't need that . . dayum.

Lots of green, and a good lie on freshly raked sand. He's getting lucky even when he makes mistakes.

And that was another great shot off the sand

 

[BillyL]

Great bunker shot . . Tiger pulls this off then he'll be okay I believe.

 

[BillyL]

Schauffele having fits now . . everything seems to be breaking towards it being Tiger's day.

 

[uncboy10]

He needs to go get a few more birdies and keep making his pars. Any of these guys can hit a couple of great shots and end up making eagle on a par 5.

WOW. That was the shot right there. The one they always replay from a major Sunday win

 

[BillyL]

Holy sh!t . . . for a 'crossroads' shot, that was awesome.
