    Just to make it interesting threw a few bucks on the following

    Golf Futures - The Open Championship Branden Grace +6000 for To Win - The Open Championship
    Golf Futures - The Open Championship Jason Day +2500 for To Win - The Open Championship
    Golf Futures - The Open Championship Rickie Fowler +4000 for To Win - The Open Championship
    Golf Futures - The Open Championship Sergio Garcia +2500 for To Win - The Open Championship

    Fowler killed me in my golf pool also.

    To walk off the course today with those numerous 3 putts, be sitting in 10th place then watch the afternoon groups are just seeing these greens firm up by the minute, the wind get stronger...and sitting tied for 5th...sitting pretty indeed!!!
    Tomorrow is huge. Needs to take advantage of the par 5's, keep hitting fairways and avoid the 3 putt.
    Go Tiger. Hoping for Dufner to get hot on the back...

    lets go Westwood.
    I would love to be able to get the BBC feed.
    They don't suck off tiger like Azinger,Turico et al.
    They also don't use the preferential leaderboard.
    True golf coverage.
    tiger has never come from behind to win a major.
    That stat will continue.
    One thing about The Open,it takes more luck to win this major than any other.
    You can hit what you think is the perfect shot,only to get a crazy bounce and end up in one of those pot bunkers.
    Or run all the way through the green.
    But the tradition and history is there, and that is what makes it so special.
    It will be exciting Sunday morning.

    10 guys within 5 shots heading into a Sunday @ Muirfield...couldn't ask for a better morning tomorrow.
    Does Tiger get #15, despite never coming from behind to win a major before?
    Does a Snedeker, Garcia or Day throw a 65 on the guys ahead of them to increase the pressure?
    Does Phil or Adam Scott add another major to the resume?
    Does the monkey finally escape from Westwoods back?
    Does Shiv throw up a 90 tomorrow to post rounds in 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's? :D
    Cannot wait.

    Gotta love The Open.

  • Really hoping Westwood wins today. Still plenty in contention but if he holds his nerve he'll do it.

    Here we go! Nothing wrong with a 9 am beer right?

    Really want Westwood to win one but hoping for tiger today, obviously. Don't really want stenson or Scott.
