lol I would love to know how that happened.

If you dress like a clown you better do a round in the 60s...

[fr0sty]

Is anyone watching now?

 

Couple of observations; 1) Poulter is off to a hot start, hopefully he can maintain it through the round. 2) Winter hat and shirt, really Duffner? 3) Don't hit it in the bunkers. 4) Dechambeau looks completely lost, hangover from his maiden win?

[b.helts]

I'm watching. Poulter looks very good.

 

Dufner has layered up over the last couple of years in preparation for this event.

 

 

[b.helts]

Certainly Billy Ray. Certainly.

On the Russians - Trump told them that some prominent players from the past were big, very big spies for Russia and with that being so they had to consider them Russian for coming up with the totals!

 

Fake news! Very sad. :(

[imakaveli]

Poulter winning the Open the same year as Sergio winning the Masters is too much for WRX :D

How is Spieth going to talk to his ball with that entire pack of gum in his mouth?

Is that why he couldn't yell FORE on the 2nd hole

No play-by-play or shot link really sucks. How in the world can the Open not have this? European Tour doesn't have it in general. How do you want to be a quality tour if you do not offer your fans that in the year 2017?

 

pga.com is great with that. You can follow you favorite players around the golf course and although you cannot watch the shot, you are informed exactly how things go shot by shot.

they have individual groups you can watch every shot of that group for all 18 holes.

 

Not sure what you mean by play-by-play or shot link?

[Moleman]

Danny Willet, leading the open! :D

 

Never mind... :(

Never mind the shades. Looks like he is wearing a sweater his Auntie Anna knitted for him.

[fr0sty]

Spieth looks pretty good, he seems relaxed. Also, no excessive talking to the ball...yet.

Yes. He is looking very solid at the moment. Should post a score today.

[jmvargas]

A clown?? Sorry man; that's a pretty fresh outfit. On course it looks really good too; the cardigan covers most of the tie so he probably doesn't even notice it much. I think it looks great.

 

In other news; Monte has been really good in the booth this morning; he's freakin hilarious!

lol I would love to know how that happened.

 

I think this is it:

 

 

Maybe it was RSA (Republic of South Africa), but I doubt it.

 

RSA became Russia instead of S Africa.

New leader at -3, Jordan Spieth!

 

Somewhere, PLHR sheds another tear.

[moonshine]

I think Thomas looks the part as well. Gentlemen seemed to have gone the way of the neanderthal.

[bladehunter]

Young Jordan Spieth is lookig like the one to beat at this point... his putter and wedges are sharp as ever

[i*windows]

nice 69 from Fitzpatrick, a great talent

[No_Catchy_Nickname]

Nice to see the English players Plant, Tree, and Wood close together on the leaderboard.

[socied]

On the first 5-6 spieth lipped out a few long ones. He does seem relaxed. Also, as someone stated, does he have a whole bag of big league chew in his mouth???

 

I may be the minority but after the last year, cool to see Poulter up there. I am not a fan of his but I like the fight he is showing.

Actually, you need to PLANT a TREE to get WOOD. That would make a great threesome.

[i*windows]

great round from Poulter

[Magic Slugger]

Must be nice for the players to come to europe and not hear all the baba boyes and in the hole shouts for once. The players looks relaxing out there and seems to have a good time.
