It probably wouldn't be the worst idea to put some water on these greens.

Rory putting into the bunker was absolutely hilarious.

Wish I could be watching. I'm refreshing the Tiger hole by hole on USA Today. Seems like he's playing alright. Kinda bummed to see Faldo up there with a +8, would be nice to see him make the cut. Duval +5, I'd really like to see him make the cut but I almost think Faldo has a better shot still.

Welp...there goes my second pick in the pickem contest.

L inked an old article..but apparently Oosthuizen has withdrawn.

Woah! I thought he was playin' just fine through 8?!? What hapepened? Was Tiger teasing him?

Edit: Okay maybe he wasn't, I just looked at the hole by hole and he was +4. Can't wait to read what happened!

He doubled 7 and bogey'd 8. Apparently had a leg injury.

I'm at work, otherwise I totally would be watching, unless I was actually golfing.

I'm trying to watch this online, but the only thing I see is this video playing on right on the the front page of the open. Com. They're not actually showing golf. Am I missing something?

I think the only place you can see it is through ESPN3 or Watch ESPN or whatever it's called now.

When you're on theopen.com, you need to click the toolbar on the video and select the "7, 8 & 9" stream.

No[quote name="David in FL" url="/t/68416/official-2013-british-open-at-muirfield-discussion-thread/30#post_868762"]Heard an interesting fact today. The Muirfield membership plays foursome partners alternate shot as their standard game. Only with permission can they play their own ball. On average, a foursome will get around in 2:30 or so.....[/quote] Not true. You play your own ball in the morning 18, stop for lunch and kimmel and then play alternate shot in the afternoon round. Visitors are welcome to play on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
