147th Open Walking Thread presented by Johnnie Walker Blue

Nah. Now that I can devote time to watching insteed of sneaking peeks at work he really does look like a douche. Reminds of the glasses John Candy’s character had on when the picked up the Hackensack Bulls at the helipad.

 

Every golfer in the field could shoot 66 once in 4 days this year. But to win it this year you need to be under par 3 of the 4 days.

 

Someone please tell Dan Hicks to stop saying “freshening” wind.

 

TW has to shoot 66 again and have help to win tomorrow.
Speith looked locked in today. It would be cool to see him go back-to-back.
Fleetwood is still dangerous. He can go low and win it.

 

Maybe Miller went overboard on the haggis and smoked fish!

 

Every time I see that name, I think of Stevie Nicks.

 

I loved the pairing of Fleetwood and Perez. They looked like a couple of guys cruising the strip in Vegas looking for a good time.

 

Woods is in position where if he shoots 66 again he'll be 10 under and probably loses by three. Time is long gone where if he posts a number, the leaders choke. Not to denigrate what he did today. Outstanding round of golf. He CAN contend in majors. But golf is logarithmic, The distance between contend and win is ever so much greater than that between make the cut and contend.

 

Yeah, hard to imagine Woods being able to come back and win.

I'll take Speith (I know, out on a limb). But the group at 5-under is really interesting. Woods, Rory, Fleetwood, Johnson, Simpson, Noren, Kuch.

There are only five players ahead of the 5-under club. We know Spieth can get it done. But I'm not so sure about Schauffele, Kisner, Chappell or Molinari.

Somebody from the 4-under group like Justin Rose could put up a number, too.

Should be one helluva fun Sunday.

 

If the wind is 30 MPH I like Woods to post a low score mainly because he has the most experience dealing with trash conditions. Problem is I think he’s too far back regardless. Once again the missed opportunities on Thursday and Friday cost him. If he had shot the -1 or -2 he should have on both those days he’s in the Shit of it.

 

Is that a gay joke?
