Go Tom!!! Who says the round-bellies can't play with the flat-bellies!!??

[cleveland gop]

I think Tom can play well enough too. The problem with predicting weather especially in that part of the world is the ocean influences everything. With what’s expected. we’ll all turn our TV’s on in the AM and see blue skies again.

But if the expected hits, even Tiger must even take it easy and even play conservatively if he wants to make sure he sticks around for the weekend. I think in Tiger’s case course management is gonna be more important than the weather conditions.

Tom makes the cut no doubt, although I think he backs up a little shooting 73. Tiger shoots 68 and gets in at -2 also. You’re not going to see scoring get much better than it is. At best the lead is -7. At best.

[Niteflyr]

At best the lead is -7. At best.

I think it will be back to -5 by Sunday...Greg almost did it for the old guys maybe Watson can hang in there and be in the hunt Sunday! :o)

[cleveland gop]

It could be even worse than -5 by the time the champion golfer is crowned. For the sake of tomorrow’s play I don’t see a Jimenez, Curtis or Stricker backing up. One of them could be at the -7 mark after tomorrow.

Padraig shoots the best round tomorrow, a 66 to get to -5 and right in the mix.

[GRRRRR]

John Daly -3??

Oooooh, this could be fun!!

[GRRRRR]

Next year’s open is at St. Andrews

Last time I checked, Ben Curtis was what, +7 for the day? Oh now look at those shots on TV. that’s the Open championshio we know and love.

Steve Marino in the clubhouse at -5, after shooting 68.

[cleveland gop]

You’re right about that!! Priceless indeed.....

Looks like Ben Curtis is going north of 80 at this rate......WOW!!!

I have dreams...shooting -6 and then someone steals all my balls and my putter is broken...

[Hot Tabasco]

Got to love the game. The pro’s get paid to play under those conditions while us hackers will quite often take a day off work and PAY to play under those conditions....LOL!

[cleveland gop]

Oh I know, but the line fits perfectly though, don’t you think.

Els finishes at +1, should make the cut...
